I would love to see Drones as a module so i can stop using them altogether

Shield/Armour Emitter

Module, functions identically to a smartbomb but repairs instead of damaging.

For the Sniper, Suicide Ganker, or Alpha Fleet Pilot...

Magnetic Field Booster - Low Slot module that increases Hybrid Turret Damage and Range at expense of Tracking and Rate of Fire. Percent modifier dependent on Meta level.
40-60% penalty to Hybrid Turret Rate of Fire
40-60% penalty to Hybrid Turret Tracking
40-60% bonus to Hybrid Turret Damage
40-60% bonus to Hybrid Turret Range

Propellant Chamber Injector - Low Slot module that increases Projectile Turret Damage and Range at the expense of Tracking and Rate of Fire. Percent modifier dependent on Meta level.
40-60% penalty to Projectile Turret Rate of Fire
40-60% penalty to Projectile Turret Tracking
40-60% bonus to Projectile Turret Damage
40-60% bonus to Projectile Turret Range

Independent Laser Capacitor - Low Slot module that increases Energy Turret Damage and Range at the expense of Tracking and Rate of Fire. Percent modifier dependent on Meta level.
40-60% penalty to Energy Turret Rate of Fire
40-60% penalty to Energy Turret Tracking
40-60% bonus to Energy Turret Damage
40-60% bonus to Energy Turret Range

This module could work... It would eat your armor while the shield bonus was in effect. Once the armor was depleted, no more bonus. Once your shields went down, you would go straight to hull. As an alternative, the armor could be used to reinforce shield resist or be used to assist the boosters.

decoy module ...its a trap

Hello fellow pirates... ahhem, pilots! Some have mentioned that the target-painter bonus for Minmatar recon ships is somewhat of a joke, I think most would agree with this statement. On that note, there is a specific EW module for turrets (tracking disruptors) and yet none designed specifically for missiles. Some could argue that the sensor dampener is designed against missile boats but I feel that’s a generalized module for missiles and snipers. [WM]-inmatar already have the webbing bonus for ships I thought a modified stasis webifier could be used to only web incoming missiles at much longer range then your typical web thus reducing the effective range of missiles. Of course this module could be used on any ship, but just be more effective on the Minmatar EW ships. This module would web missiles from the targeted ship to any target until missile dies or leaves web range. This module cannot be used to affect ships. (also might possibly make a defender missiles more interesting )

It would be really nice to have more utility high slot modules. I often find my self leaving utility high slots empty, or a auto targeter in them, just because nothing else will fit that I would use. Maybe some higher output verisions of mid slot items.

Like tackle modules that have much higher fitting requirements but go in a high slot rather than a mid slot.

Or a converter that when placed in a high slot will add a mid or low slot to the ship.

a longer range target painter, or e-war that fits in high slots.

I had an idea about a projected cloaking device. It would be used to cloak another ship, rather than the host ship. For example use a combat ship to cloak a freighter. The freighter can not move while cloaked, but can not be scanned and will not show on D-scan. Could be useful to somewhat hide a freighter in systems without station/outposts if a hostile shows up in local. Having a T3 cruiser showing on D-scan is a less attractive target then the freighter it is hiding. Or have a cloaked freighter parked near an ORCA during a mining op. or a dread with a full weapon rack and siege module can still be cloaked by a support ship.

A remote warp stabilizer high slot mod. Can be used to add warp strength to a ship that is being tackled.

A script for the micro jump drive that allows you to jump to a cyno in the same system. A cyno is popped in your system, you can jump a fleet of BS's right to it for rapid response to the hot drop.

What about a high slot heat sink mod that absorbs damage from over heated modules letting them be over heated longer.

If I am never in range to use a NOS no point in fitting one, Drone range is of little benefit since the AI change, need to keep them close to recall them when needed. the auto targeter grants 2 extra targets, but is of limited benefit.

How about a high slot utility mod that benefits long range ships.

Don't need to follow any of these idea's but more non fleet use utility high slot mods would be great.

I have an Idea about tactical "wall" modules have no clue what should be the properties, but a mechanic like that would be really cool.
The idea of the mechanic is similar to the energy transfer chain-link of logistic ships, for example we take 3 pieces. The main difference is that in the center of that triangle is formed a shield/barrier with an defensive effect, maybe EWAR defense or that barrier could defend from a % of shots and missiles that go throw it. Or may be a stasis field, that dramatically decreases the speed of a ship that flies throw.
IMO that would be a cool feature and also will give more tactical depth to the large fights. + the navigation skill and proper use of those tactic formations would give TONNS OF EPICNESS and TACTICS :D

Hope the main idea is clear. Hope I got ur interest CCP, I believe that u CAN do it!

In fact such realisation has an obious flaw of creating several free 51-day non-trial accounts and transferring huge amount of free SP to another character. Unless you dont want to make those cubes of 3 mil SP minimal with paid(2 plexes) transfer between accounts this should not be done. I would however appreciate any form of SP traiding if you can avoid such exploits. I.e. you can make those boxes created with two plexes initially, having unlimited capacity and destroyed on injection.

A rig to increase the range of tractor beams and another to increase the velocity factor of tractor beams.
