Default Pods

One early game strategy that I have been using more and more lately is to use transports w/ satellite bays as makeshift combat units. That has made me think.

If any of you are familliar w. the Honor Harrington series, you will recall that as the series progressed, the strategy of using towed missile pods was key to many Mantie victories. With that being said, this is what I envision:

A component that allows a ship to tractor so many satellites behind as pods. Based on the current tacical combat interface, I have no idea how you actually pull this off, but that would be a great idea.
