Space Mines (couldn't come up with a clever name):
Work similar to a smartbomb, with some changes.

Three sizes of mines, each with a tech 2 version. Sisters of EVE would develop this weapon in preparation of the Drifters invasion.

Mines deploy like mobile warp disruptor. After the Mine has been launched, anchored and online, the mine is cloaked. There is a 5 minute delay before the mine goes online, which it is visible on dscan and overview, at which time its target-able/vulnerable.

Breaching the mines perimeter, damage applied will depend on range from core, and ships signature radius.

Tactics would be deploying mines on a POS, Station, or Gate simular to mobile warp disruption. By using tactical book marks, you could lead chasing attackers into a mine field.

Space mines cannot affect ships in warp as it cannot detect their signature accurately to determine range.

love the "use search please" when search is broke and has been since I've been in eve. 9/10 times "there was an error"

Google search shows last time this was suggested was 2013. And was rejected as the CCP servers couldn't handle them when they existed in game previously.

This game will die if it remains under the direct influence of bittervets.

I will even name one of these mines. How does anaconda sound to you lol? Not sure if the name is catchy enough. Python maybe.


Let me think on this a bit....

While the forum dies under the weight of ignorant posters, with little thought going into their posts and ideas.

As for the search function not working, I wonder how I found this?
I'll just leave it here, wouldn't want to be smug about bittervets actually having reasons.
