I mean, they could do something here like they did in E3 Spring, where you could, in theory, bring whatever you wanted... but if you wanted to have the better start-point and routing, you were restricted on what you could bring (for example, you pretty much had to bring a Fast AO)...while a Transport Escort fleet had no such restrictions.

Personally, I'm not going to speculate on anything because there's a lot of things that they have done in the past as well as some things that they have not done for quite awhile *cough* Striking Force *cough*.

...either way, I expect things to be sufficiently challenging for those who always do Hard Mode...
