Pleas make this a thing, also at a later date when you get some free time in the art department if you could make it so that after you use a certain number of corpses the Citadel will have streaks of blood like the reavers in firefly I would also say kind of like the blood raiders but more like the reavers that would be awesome.

PS: What would also be acceptable is if throwing in corpses makes you're citadel more fuel efficient, well k thanks in advance looking forward to an implementation ;p

Too much like the Holocaust and a bit too morbid tbh.

Also would be free fuel since corpses cost nothing to get them.

Strikes me as more of a Machine Army Matrix sort of set up...or even a Soylent Green narrative.

Or we could become like the Drifters and harvest corpses--giving priority to those frigid celestial with nice implants.

Not this again. Implants are isk sink, let's leave them as is.

So keeping a collection of corpses isn't morbid, the Blood Raider's aren't morbid, the Drifters aren't morbid and the Sansha's Nation aren't morbid but using corpses as a supplementary fuel is too morbid for you...

When I was taking this more seriously I did write in that the number of created corpses are relatively small compared to the amount of ice mined etc so this impact on fuel prices should be negligible, but I stopped taking it seriously because it's just a funny idea.

It's just we have these corpses piling up and it would be nice to have something to do with them and burning my enemies corpses to sustain my Citadel seems like a fun thing to do with them.

Until you farm them by podding your implantless alt/friend 1000 times a day. If you give corpses a use they will be farmed in the millions a day suddenly.
