Mission or event: Hive Captial Ship!

Oct 06, 2018 Risk Everything link
The premise of this is that the Hive has created a capital ship of their by fusing a few capital ships together in the Capship Battle sectors in Sedina. The ship could then look like a nearly-random conglomeration of existing capship, but bristling with Hive weapons.
It would attack a conquerable station, and have the ability to take over that station. It could potentially go from one conquerable station to the next...

The ship would keep sending out a steady stream of bots, so that there is *always* a healthy escort. It should be more difficult to destroy than the Leviathan. Perhaps when it gets down to 10% health, the number of escorts would increase by at least two-fold.

The rewards for defeating this threat would be: a considerable number of hive weapons, and capship components!

The queen is their capship-ish. And also having something stronger than a levi seems weird, at least to me. But +1 to hive taking over stations, I would love to see bots flying around in station sectors and creating chaos.

My understanding (from discussions with very old vets) is that queens used to birth other hive ships out of their rear ends.
