Player Features and Ideas Discussion

This high-tech shuttle would allow a variety of ways to get yourself and your small cargo safely from one end of the galaxy to the other. Their tight fittings and lack of high slots would make it difficult to use these ships as aggressors, relegating them almost entirely to non-combat use. The strategic shuttle would be produced entirely by InterBus, and is designed from technology obtained during their excursion into wormhole space beginning in YC-111.

They would come with 4 subsystem slots: defensive, electronic, engineering, and navigation.

Strategic Shuttle

As, reduced damage from smartbombs?

You can fit enough tank to one of these to make them survive several smartbomb hits. For max EHP, fit the Power Core Multiplier with the Signature Emission Dampening and Adaptive Civilian Augmenter. Then put on a 200mm armor plate, damage control II, and EANM. That will protect you from smartbombs pretty well.

I meant to fit large smartbombs and have a range bonus to them. I was being silly.

yet another silly topic but i love the idea of such a trollboat if it ever gets out i want one to yolo eve!!, especially the smartbomb idea would get a kick out of me!!!!

It's called the Leopard.

Covertcloaky, nullified, uncargoscanable shuttles. Do you by chance own a lot of expensive skillbooks, blueprints, or something of the like?

It's been done already :P

Looks like fun, you have my support.
