You're concept of what is powerful, what is weak, and what will make what too powerful is flawed.

The actual implementation is up to the balance team/other devs, but I have voted yes to the idea of some form of anti-cloak technology. I have for a while, but a couple of new Outcast battleships who make heavy use of the "cloak, run, resupply, repeat" strategy have added weight to this opinion.
RE: heavy electro-magnetic disruptor - JayDee Kasane - 12-18-2012
Im up for the idea to add this ability to just Incapacitor torpedo. recloaking snubs wont do as much problems as battleships, also snubs is not ballanced for cloaks, at least standart VHFs or light Bombers, things like Thor is more cloak-able.
RE: heavy electro-magnetic disruptor - DelBoy - 12-18-2012
I remember reading somewhere that some dev proposed an idea about incapacitor torps being able to negate the cloak ...was digging but cant find it ;/
Tho voting Yes coz it's an good idea!

Na, Rorry. Cruisers are up at best. They need more weapons, so BS's cant run with cloaks from them.
But seriously. You sound like an child who wants to put his little favourite "good against most ship classes" toy into an "good-against-everything" toy. I bet the idea came up as a BS managed to run away with its cloak from your cruisers.
Anyway like some mention above, only bomber or -yes why not HF's should be able to disrupt Cloaks. So even Big cap fleets are forced to use at least some Snubs as anti cloak tool.
But the chance to disrupt an cloak should be even less than disrupting an cruise engine.
The idea itself is okay but i think i already read something that there wont be any anti cloak weapon (not sure right now).
RE: heavy electro-magnetic disruptor - Lonely_Ghost - 12-18-2012
Anti Cloak indeed usefull, but I'd rather put it on fighter/bomber. I totaly agree to give another role for a snubs, rather than give some more devices to capital ships.
Giving to incapacitor torps decloak ability nearly perfect idea.

Things change

7. Requests for implementing cloaks. They won't exist in this mod.
RE: heavy electro-magnetic disruptor - Lonely_Ghost - 12-18-2012
Igiss doesn't see it anyway now
+ Why it should not exist? I mean, it's technicaly can't be done or just...
RE: heavy electro-magnetic disruptor - why_so_serious - 12-18-2012
I just searched for the thread again. Cant find it anymore maybe i misread something.
RE: heavy electro-magnetic disruptor - monmarfori - 12-18-2012
What happens if fighters escaping were hit? Either way it would be disastrous to them since they can't even run or cloak.
