Basically, RSVs become normal IN escorts in every way which can be taken in the SM list. The RSVs will have the IN leadership and no special rules of the SMs.

Ok but then how does leadership work? Would it be like Armageddon where they are strictly segregated or like the widow makers upgrade where more than half of a mixed squadron must be of the correct type to receive the bonus.   
I don't make the rules, I just think them up and write them down.

We should make it the same as the Armageddon way, I think.

Strict segregation is simplest ruleswise. No need to complicate it, keep Armageddon way.

I am bringing this up to ask what you guys think about this.... I would like to add the RSVs only to the Dominion list, mainly because the Dominion list just has less options, but also has Captains that help with integrated IN ships. This seems to be the perfect place to place RSVs. Sound good?

Let's do it! Plus, dominion list does not have the TH destructor, so having this extra option helps make it worthwhile.
