-Use existing Shuttle Hulls
-No fitting slots
-0 Cargo Hold
-Warp Speed 15AU/sec
-Auto Cloaks as long as nothing is within 2500m
-Speed while cloaked 100m/s
-Cloaks while warping

Prerequisite Skill-Cloaking V

Use for fleet scouting or traveling to and from 0.0 sec space. No cargo hold means you cant use it for blockade running.

Two words, Cov ops

Sometimes when I post, I look at my sig and wish that I'd follow my own god damned advice.

Covops pretty much, less skill intensive and more useful.

Lets see. adding a new ship that has no point. Im okay with that. but adding an auto cloak. No.

Also There are already 2 classes of ship that fit this role so I don't see a point. I would like to see a useful shuttle tho.

i would like to see a useful shuttle to. the way i would envision it, would be as just a crazy big engine warp drive accelerater ship. warp at insane speeds, but nothing else. little to no cargo. just for moving around through space quickly (exactly what a shuttle is supposed to be). not talking about agility, or max speed, just warp speed.

I do not endorse the scout concept as presented by OP.
However the idea of some sort of super shuttle as some appeal to me, however i wont endorse it either.
While it may seems like a good idea the role of a super shuttle can actually be filled by a nano inty or even a fast nanoed frigate, rigged with some warp speed enhancers.

I m all for new ships but these got to have an use that doesnt make another ship redundant.

That exists, it's called an interceptor.
