Oh yeah...
And probably, some hypothetical "expanded universe"
"flotilla of mini-death stars" would just be confusing
(but "Rogue Squadron" did the same things to make
personal versions of the scout walker)
(and I guess you shouldn't be able to easily shoot
down a Star Destoyer either, for that matter)

The trouble is, Slave I only makes visual sense from the side...
from the front it's just a big upsidedown teardrop with a whole
cutout for the cockpit, and little wingthings.
How about the "Lambda Class Shuttle"?

something like that anyway...there's even a bit
of a 2600 precedent with that, in
"ROTJ:Death Star Battle"

Yeah, but I don't get the gameplay, esp. what's different
about the mothership, maybe I should seek an emulation.
