They would do only a very small amount of dps, I don't mine, but it would make for some pretty hilarious killmails. Similar to noobship blobs. Pirate

If this ever comes to pass, I want salvagers to do damage to all minmatar ships as well.

This is actually a pretty cool idea.

tractor beams should be able to smash asteroids against miners
salvagers should be the ultimate weapon against minmatar
smartbombs should increase peoples intelligence

how to fix eve: 1) remove ECM 2) rename dampeners to ECM 3) add new anti-drone ewar for caldari 4) give offgrid boosters ongrid combat value

I actually had a similar idea, about letting mining laser shoot ore at people, better ore = higher damage.
Though I admit it's a stupid idea I found the thought of killing someone with streams of liquid veldspar kinda amusing.

*see pirate coming*
*overheat mining laser*
*fire at asteroid*
*asteroid explode*
*both miner and ganker are killed in the explosion*

sure it's crap for gameplay, but would be funny

lots of good laughs on this thread btw :)
