I've a Fairydown Assault(early model) for probably 30 years, the fact that it is still in good nick probably means I haven't used it enough.Too heavy for solo trips but OK split between two, it is multi pitch, so can use as just a fly or pitch fly & then clip in inner/tub. Two vestibules of a reasonable size make for decent comfort for two. It is a 4 season job so possibly heavier fabric that necessary but reading comments here it would serve as a good basis around which to design a lighter model. This earlier thread might have some stuff in there worth considering, as might this article from a tent designer.
