Last night playing SCII, i was thinking, how great it would be to have something similar to the Protoss Mothership in EVE. (For those who do not know: It cloaks other ships in near vicinity.)

I don't know if this idea was already there and discussed to death... but... why the hell not? So how about a 'concealment sphere launcher' or something like that?

SCII ?? what is that? Anyhow

I am not really in favour; for the very obivous reason that this away 3 ships with that module would be able to cloak a whole fleet... Ugh

and that's something none would like,

Well... the diameter of the sphere would be subject to tweaking. A 1000m sphere , for example, can't hold that many ships.

it'd be hilarious to watch a lone interceptor own a whole fleet by flying straight into a cloaked fleet and decloaking a small number of enemies to get wiped out by the opposing fleet while their allies are unable to activate their modules.

Neat idea, we would abuse the hell out of it though.
