I must agree with Sir Dragon, trying to change the way armor and shields function would be a big hit. Also, the hull stands for the integrity of the ship and modules (modules do have integrity also, even though for overheating purpouses only).

So my solution: Add the integrity of modules to you ship´s hull. It will make some percentage of the totall amount. Then, once you hit structure, randomly distribute the damage.

Example: Ship has 300 hull, fits an afterburner with 50 integrity and a railgun with 50 integrity. When the hull gets shot, there is 1/8 chance of the damage going to afterburner (50/400), same with the railgun. 6/8 chance of hit into the main structure.

Of course, there would have to be some redistribution, you wouldn´t want to waste a 200 HP hit on destroying just 50 HP module, so then the 150 (remaining damage) would go another round of chance (using the previous example, after the hit, the railgun is disabled, 150 damage remains - 6/7 chance for the main body, 1/7 for the afterburner).

Also, I am not sure about the powergrid failures... Those might be some low-possibility events while getting hit into ship hull, but seriously, like 1-3% chance and the reduction then could be high (up to 50% I say).

Come untho me, my children!

Let us create a New World!

I know that changes are big but we need them. We cant stand at dark age cause "we know how to play now and better dont change anything". We must evolve. Everything goes forward. Eve cant stay as other games and only add new maps. I am eve player and i want more this game. Make that changes is Nothing bad and stop crying like ohhh they will nerf shield tanks, i cant live anymore. Roll write more ideas. And maybe some day CCP will hear US :)

And this cancelled, coz eve players didn't want it.



And it appears all of the idiots have ruined yet another terrific growth opportunity for a pretty stale/static game.
