Rather than just pointing out the biggest dog on your side of the fleet, I think that
being the Flagship of your side in a battle should give you more tactical options:

1. When Team Chat is enabled, the Flagship's name and text should be specially colored
(for example, it appears in blue among the grey and yellow text).

2. There should be an option to designate scouting requests; put the mouse over a point,
press a "Request Scout" key, and a (EDIT: gold) dot appears in all players' minimaps on
that area.

3. "Attack target" tool; put the mouse over a ship, press a key, and a red circle
surrounds that ship's dot on all players' minimaps; it stays there until the ship is
destroyed, and disappears from the map as the ship itself disappears from sight, like
normal, but remains highlighted when it's sighted again.

4. "Defend point" tool; works the same as "Request Scout", but it puts a (EDIT: gold) X on
the minimap instead; tells players where the line is weak and needs defending.

EDIT: point 5 regarding the transfer of flagship powers removed.
