Hi

this is the first time i use this forum, so please, forgive me if i'll make some mistakes.

I thought about a new ship class: a T2 battlecruiser capable to interdict a small portion of space at very long range.

Those ships will not use the same warp disruption modules as other Interdictor, but they will interdict a portion of space in the most classical way: fire barrages. This will not prevent enemies to warp away, but it will avoid enemies cross the target area without taking high damages.
This what i thought for those ships stats to better understand this idea. I use caldari as example.
(sorry, i cannot set a spoiler, so it will appear as a wall of text, but they are simple info, really fast to read)

And those are the stats for the Space interdiction Modules as I imagine those:

Quote:
Caldari Attributes
Capacity: 20 m3
Used with: Interdiction Ammo (crystals for Amarr)
Rof: 1 s
Charge per Cycle: 1
Duration: 60 s
Reload Time: 100 sec
Speed Modifier: -100%
Slot requirement: 1 High Power
CPU Usage: 80 Tf
Powergrid Usage: 150 MW

On activation:
Pilot can chose a 10km radius sphere as target area, with a minimal range of 30 km from his ship to a maximum of 150 km.
Upon activation the ship aligns to the target area, then stops and starts launching a heavy barrage of timed missiles that exploded randomly in the target area damaging ANY ship in the explosion radius.
Once activated, this module CAN'T be turned off before the end of the cycle.

Timed Missile Stats:
Volume: 0.33 m3
Velocity: 3000 m/s
Area of Effect: 4 km
Kinetic Damage: 2700 HP
Base Shield Damage: 1500 HP
Base Armor Damage: 2000 HP

Reload Time: 100 sec
Speed Modifier: -100%
Slot requirement: 1 High Power
CPU Usage: 40 Tf
Powergrid Usage: 220 MW

On Activation (Amarr):
Pilot can chose a conical target area with a 5km base radius at 100 km from the ship (it can be directed in any direction with ofc the vertex on the ship. Upon Activation the ship aligns to the target area, then stops and open fire launching random laser rays that collide with the first object they find.
Once activated, this module CAN'T be turned off before the end of the cycle.

Barrage Crystal

On Activation:
Pilot can chose a 90° circular sector centered on his ship with a 120 km radius. (it can be directed in any direction keeping the central angle on the ship). Upon activation, the ships align to the target area, then stops and open fire launching ordered volley of proximity fused HE projectiles triggered by ships in the proximity activation range.

Proximity HE Charges
Volume: 0.33 m3

The idea is cool, didn't read your actual ship prototypes.

loking at the amount of DMG you are dishing out
and the fact that it will be stationairy etc...

i would Vote for BattleShip Level 3 hulls

also will add a nice way to kill off fighters / drones at range in fleet battles

it looks like a FlagCannon design ... will add a nice new ship
and it will be an awsume counter versus carriers and supercarriers

Thumbs UP for this idea
