Suicide interdiction to beacon for bombs.... Sounds stupid and might be... But might be different dynamics for missile or bomber crews.
A painter in bubble format that affects allies and enemies alike.

Is that my two cents or yours?

I think he wants to be able to equip a ship to jump into a blob and paint everything in a xxkm radius sphere in the same way a smart bomb or bubble works. an AEO device.

Can't think of any way that could get abusedShocked no seems totally legit.Roll

edit: in case I am not clearLol A rather poor and monstrously overpowered suggestion.

I like the idea of all ewar having a bomb equivalent.
Oh and the removal of anchored bubbles, my dics need loving.

A web-probe or web-bomb would be more overpowered.

That said, a moving web-probe fired at a fleet anchor would be hilariously fun to watch.

If it was actually a suicide thing, so you have to die (vs players rather than Concordokken or whatever) to release the effect or whatever that might be kinda fun.

Clearly abusable but what isn't.

Just make it a target painting bomb.

Fire one at ze blob before the main bomb run.

Improves the effectiveness of the bombing run at the cost of giving prior warning to ze blob.

Suicide is just as a balancer instead of just constant rolling people. Radius of painting should be somewhat in the bomb radius

Is that my two cents or yours?

Yeah lets make another gatecamp mechanic for instalockers. Only it affects every enemy instead of just select few.
