cruiser or capital hull with same restrictions as a capital. 2 high slots one for one large cannon projectile or laser, one for regular cloak, weak hull, high damage single shot with long reload time, like a titan and doomsday device, or a stealth bomber but smaller ship size and concentrated damage on single ship instead of AOE. I'll let the devs and players tweak, add on or shoot down this idea.

There are these ships called tier 3 battlecruisers (or whatever they are called now) I believe they are what you seek.

They are being given the title "Attack Battlecruiser".

So, a sniping Cruiser that has a normal cloak slot, (slashing its scan resolution and making it wait about 30 seconds before it can target someone as well,) that has 1 XL weapon slot. A 'Quad 3500mm Siege Artillery I' has a base alpha of 1200 damage before modification. You would have to modify it a very long way before it would compete with the likes of a Tornado using 1400mm guns, which with max skills and a few of the cheaper implants will do about 15000 alpha.

In its current incarnation, it would decloack and either its target would simply leave or kill it before it could lock.

Oh, and I assume your referring to.bombs with the AoE effect, as DDs haven't done AoE damage for a while now.
