Bad idea of the day:

A new class of weapons: Indirect fire weapons.

Good: Incredible damage, incredible range, AOE-effect
Bad: Bad tracking, has all the drawbacks of missiles and turrets, ammunition is really high in volume, skill-intensive

Essentially they would be somewhere in the middle between direct-fire weapons and missiles.

The Amarr would get:

Tachyon-Burst Emitter

Shoots a ball of distorted space-time. Fucks everything up real good.

The Caldari would get:

Graviton-Cannon

Shoots out a concentrated ray of gravitons, which creates a black hole-like distortion at the target zone. The wildly fluctuating gravity in the affected area rips everything apart.

The Gallente would get:

Antimattter-Artillery

Exactly what it says, with a nice add-on: The protective shell around the contained antimatter is a complex network of shield-emitters alternated with explosives and additional matter stuffed around it. When the shell hits, the advanced on-board AI detonates the explosives to destroy the shield-emitters and to disperse matter and antimatter almost homogenous into the environment. Which then is followed by a large matter-/antimatter annihiliation reaction. A world-shattering kaboom.

The Minmatar would get:

Machine Trasher

After trying to reverse-engineer a stolen Tachyon Burst Emitter, the Minmatar somehow ended up with this monster instead: It shoots out rifts in space-time so large, it even disables warp drives as additional AOE-effect for a short time. Overall, this
monster needs more fitting as the other three and its ammunition takes the most volume, but its effects are so violent it stops all warp drives (friend and foe) in the affected area. The target area is also larger and the damage lower then with the other three types.

Just something I thought about today. Lol

SOL Ranger Imperial Armed Forces Likes received: 204	#1289 - 2013-09-29 21:57:52 UTC Allow players to sell their kill mails on contracts, some bandits are fine with having the reputation without having done the actual deeds for it so let us use contracts to cut/paste kill mails for a price and create more "notorious" gangsters. The Vargur requires launcher hardpoints, following tempest tradition.

Dude you dont get the point of this thread...... all 3 of urs so far have been amazing things that we want in game now! :P

TheFace Asano Caldari Provisions Caldari State Likes received: 47	#1300 - 2013-09-30 16:43:02 UTC Within the theme of Rubicon structures you can deploy, I suggest a defense structure. It will have 4 different versions, each with a damage type. This structure will have an assist mechanic and can only be deployed by a select ship like a blockade runner or a black ops battleship. Structures would have a good amount of hitpoints and shoot things.
