As mentioned upthread: Q-Ships.

Looks like an industrial, scans like an industrial (meanings its gun and/or missile turrets are hidden and undetectable in normal mode) but really armed and armored to take on would-be pirates.) The Q-Ship pays for this ability in reduced cargo capacity and no real improvement to its speed. The Q-Ship's primary advantage lies in its surprise factor, as a pirate may never know if the industrial its about to gank is a Q or not.


War Barge: This is a specialty ship class referenced and briefly shown in trailers for DUST 514, whose principal purpose is to support and transport ground troops as well as their support infrastructure to a target world. The class design includes ship hangars, clone bays, and cargo areas, as well as other features. Having one of these ships parked in orbit gives the Templar ground troopers below an advantage in combat.

More as I think on them.

I hate these threads....

Think of a role that needs filling, then form a ship around that role.
That's how you think up new ships!

Example...
Titans are hard to kill (as they should be)
Dreads do alot of DPS. Should dreads be structure specific or should they be able to take out super capitals?

If they're structure only then make them structure only and give them a bonus to that.

This then opens a new role for super cap killers, these would need high DPS, a tank similar to carriers\dreads something to gimp them shooting at structures.

Failing that, boost dreads.

see how that works?

More ships for the sake of more ships isn't the way eve should go, it's what happened to WoW and all you end up with is the latest release making all previous releases redundent.

Field tech ships.

Possibile Capabilities,



- Missile Bubbler : decrease the missile velocity and explosion speed -- Gallente tech

- Protective Prism : Reflect % portion of beam & pulse lasers back or anywhere on grid -- Minmatar tech

- Muffler : Force overload autocannons on grid & decrease tracking -- Amarr Tech

- Backfire bubble : Self damage on blasters & railguns. Also decrease incoming dmg -- Caldari tech


Also, ships with

-AOE Cloak Mechanism. Can cloak everyone on grid; can't cloak itself and move.
-Cloak Breaker.
-Mass increase module
etc..

we need more e war ships than pewpew ships.

There has to be some kind of expansion of Tech 3 ships soon. It's almost 3 years since Tech 3 was first introduced in Apocrypha. That's a long time.

Either one of Tech3:
Frigates
Miners & Industrials
Battleships
