Something we're missing!

It has been quite some time since I last posted a brilliant (a.k.a ridiculous) idea, but in light of recent additions such as command and tactical destroyers, I realised one end of the spectrum is missing some flavour.

Command Black ops.

Has 3 modes.

Jump field mode
Command mode
Attack mode.

Jump field mode - acts sort of like Micro jump field, but with a longer spool up and doesn't just jump people within the field 100km, it jumps them to a cyno. Not just your cyno, any cyno within range (hostile or friendly). How great is that!?

Command mode - can provide command links and has slightly increased defensive capabilities.

Attack mode - Basically a blap mode that has a similar effect to polarised launchers. Removes your tank but hugely increases your rate of fire and ship hull bonus.

I know this ain't balanced as it is. But let's just pretend that sometimes ships are added to game that aren't balanced....

I just haven't figured out how to penalise the system so it doesn't completely remove the need for Titans.

A badly stealthed t3 battleship idea is still a bad idea, as well as redundant.

Who said anything about stealth?

You didn't really provide anything to the thread besides a bit of whining.

I don't think that we need to pretend anything. And for some odd reason that last bit looks like a whine.

There was something my dad told me when I was young, something with throwing stones in a glass house....

This is the law of ship progression!

Roll

Not the ship, the thread itself. Go read some of the t3 battleship threads. Pretty sure your idea is already being discussed in one of them.

Nope, I don't whine about ships being out of balance, if all ships were balanced there'd be no point having more than 1 ship hull in game, it'd be pretty boring.

And I hadn't seen this particular idea in threads, I don't really have the time to read all of them. I will have a look though.

Seriously this is an awesome idea though for sure.
