I got idea for new kind of Tech 2 industrial ship. It uses electronic warfare drones.

1. This ship would have no high slots so no cloaking device.
2. This ship would have very large drone bay that cannot use (accomodate) combat drones.
3. There is racial variant for each race. They give bonuses to:
- energy neutralizer drones
- webifier drones
- ECM drones
- sensor dampener drones (reduced targeting range)
4. There would be role bonus that increases drone control range.

Comments are welcome for my idea. This idea would bring some additional meaning to large electronic warfare drones.

Interesting idea but if I might ask, why would it be an industrial ship?

The racial EWAR drones are
Sensor Damp
ECM
Tracking Disruption
Target Painting

Webifier drones and neutralizer drones are combat utility drones.

Beyond that, as the prior poster said, why am industrial?

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

I was thinking this would be way to escape small scale combat situations. Scramblers require target lock to be active. If you can unlock enemy target locks with electronic warfare drones you can warp or use medium micro jump unit. Key word for industrials is escape from scramblers/bubbles.
