imps and rebs both have some kind of dropship/building/factory/Forward battlebase on the ground with a shield or other type of defence. on the map there are some artillety enplacements. you need to capture them like the silos and they start shooting at the main base. weakening the shield.
now ground troops can get in and destroy stuff that replaces the consoles.
guns can become turrets
no moving bits that lag up a system or server. still as hard to get onto.
if its a building then multiple floors only adds to the fun.

I wouldn't mind an Executor map. If I had my way, the ship would be static and cover the entire map (in other words, it'd be the "ground" of the map. Rebels would start over it in the south and have to make their way to the bridge tower in the north, taking out the ship's bridge to win. Both sides would have fighters, and the Empire would of course have the turrets scattered throughout the "city" surface of the Executor. In other words, it'd be a mix of Battle of Britain and GC Death Star.

As for the thread idea, a better title would be "Things to replace the titan mode" .

This has been discussed a lot already. See here http://fsmod.com/fsforums/viewtopic.php?id=3028

  First Strike will not have Titan mode, however we may poach the best parts for our only game-modes. (I wonder how many times I have typed that)
