Just wondering if my new map useless or not. But can and will the flood jump from star to star to get their prey or do they need to be in the same system as the target?

AFAIK they can in vanilla... Pretty sure I've seen that happen before...

If not, no it can't, but I'm pretty sure it can

Wait for the Flood capital ships. They'll have a colonize ability alongside its ability suite.

Well...that will be fun

What kind of abilities are we talking here? Fleet buffs? AOE attacks?

Will said flood capital ships have their own unique designs? Or will they look like UNSC, Covenant, and Forerunner ships covered in flood biomass?

I'd prefer if there was at least one "pure form" capital ship for the flood to have, but yeah, hopefully we can add flood tentacles to other factions' ships as well. Diversify their fleets a bit.
