It's funny we were talking about something similar the other night.

I love the idea of outfits being based out of:

Frigates->Destroyers->Cruisers->Battleships->Carriers->Orbital Platforms depending on outfit size/points.

Perhaps once a day or so an outfit could receive a "Tactical Insertion" which would be like an outfit-specific power where the outfit could be drop-podded in items of their choosing onto any location on the hex-grid from their ship. Or, the ship could appear in flight over the battlefield inserting the group, justifying the Titan-like ship we saw in the art for Planetside 2, and a way of showing off your outfits prestige. It also makes this "private area" a game element, not just a static piece of e-peen.

Just bloody imagine 80 guys from an outfit in an assorted variety of gear jumping into a critical par of the fray fully equipped, guns blazing. Like a HART on steroids. It's certainly more dramatic than an OS, and requires the outfit to team up and launch such a RAID.
