Summary0021547: Raid Starship Variants -- Incentvize raid tech
DescriptionBackground/problem: As a hardcore raid strategy enthusiast, I've had to go at great lengths to figure out how to raid effectively with fleets. Many of my earlier grievances have been addressed, but one issue is the sheer lack of raiding starship variants which means you are forced to using multiple fleets if RNG grants you raid starships in the galaxy (rarely, in my experience). The ability to consolidate more raid starships varieties in a single fleet promotes raiding strategies throughout the game as opposed to the early/mid-game

Raid Starship variants:
1. Bounty Hunter: Defensive specialist with a penchant for ambush attacks. Turns enemies into profit. [features] Has metabolism and ambush (deadline injector) attack in the place of fusion bombs (trades structure-killing for defense/utility). [raptor-inspired version of raid starship]
2. Apparation: Offensive hit-and-run specialist with advanced evasive maneuvers [features] Excels at dealing massive damage to healthy targets but weak damage otherwise. It has a 25% d. resistance to distant enemies to offset natural fragility [mirage-inspired version of raid starship]
3. Raid Leader: The most sophisticated raiding starship of its kind; only piloted by the very best. [feature] max cap of 1, personal stats mark up proportionally to compensate; supercharger speed to fleet companions [inspired by raider stikecraft]

I've added Apparition and Bounty Hunter, not really tested right now as I set them up late. Will get to that shortly. They're in ARS' too.

Raid Leader I'm unsure. Think is possible.

I found a bounty hunter! They will be nice with raptors or things with metabolization; I like them defensively
Apparation will be cool to encounter, will follow up when i see it
Raid leader may need additional consideration regarding its niche since that could be weird to balance.
