I always though a Cruise Disruptor gun would be nice.
Something that basically performs the fucntion of a CD fits in a class 9 slot. Thers plenty of scope for players who like a torp or Razor rather than a CD and would give even more flexibility to bombers.
Downside.....um battleships will get hurt.... missile whores will too.
Thats not a downside though is it...?

Heh, I don't know if it's even possible but ... I want something like that !
Only restriction I would give is to put it on class 10 slot, 4 refire, almost no energy consumption, wasp damages ...
heh, if it could just be possible. I don't know about explosive bullets.

Someone mentioned something about Balistic weapons earlier. I figured to keep that as realistic as possible there were a few things you could do with that...
Low Mag Machine Gun:
Hull Damage: Low
Shield Damage: Very Low, Virtually None
Refire: High
Energy Usage: 0
Ammo: 1000 max per gun mounted
Machine Gun:
Hull Damage: Low
Shield Damage: Very Low, Virtually None
Refire: High
Energy Usage: 0
Ammo: 1500 max per gun mounted
High Mag Machine Gun:
Hull Damage: Low
Shield Damage: Very Low, Virtually None
Refire: High
Energy Usage: 0
Ammo: 2000 max per gun mounted
Low Mag Shotgun:
Hull Damage: High
Shield Damage: Low
Refire: Low
Energy Usage: 0
Ammo: 75 max per gun mounted
High Mag Shotgun:
Hull Damage: High
Shield Damage: Low
Refire: Low
Energy Usage: 0
Ammo: 150 max per gun mounted
High Powered Shotgun:
Hull Damage: Very High
Shield Damage: Low
Refire: Low
Energy Usage: 50
Ammo: 100 max per gun mounted
I think something to that effect would be best for a Balistic type weapon.

So we can have Sabres that CD down transports and they shoot them with MR and Infernoes?

I don't have any good names for it so were gonna go for this one for now.
Vice
It's basicly a weapon that locks onto a target at close range, say 200m and slowly gnaws away at their hull. Like radiation. This would solely be designed for pirating purposes as a count down timer for those more pesky traders.
It has the similar ideals to a tractor beam. Except it doesnt move the other character, it just delivers constant damage.

What about the flame thrower mod? That was interesting. I know flames don't really exist in space, but neither do explosions like we see in the game either because there isn't enough oxygen to burn in space, especially once a vacuum sucks the oxygen source away.
Another idea, what about explosive shell weaponry? Maybe a weapon that fires around 6.00 refire rate and uses ammo. Something like a flak cannon, just for fighters though.
Also, what about shelled guns for capships? Like we have on mondern day battleships. Shoots explosive shells at people. Mainly for anti cap defense.

If any have seen the new GI Joe movie, it's dimular, the ships gets hit by it, and is engulfed by a cloud for a few seconds, mabye a missle or mine?

Explosions work in space. We shot down one of our own sats a while back from a surface fired naval missile. China popped a sat in far orbit some time later.
Real ord. doesn't need oxygen to operate. Like a gun doesn't require oxygen to fire.
I like the idea of firing cargo. Give my outcast a fun reason to visit gamma.

I like the radiation stuff proposed here (I think it was Tenacity).
Others are more or less done. Also cluster mines do seem to be nice.
How about a shield stealer? Drains the others and fills your at the same time. Or maybe it would make the fights never ending;)

I agree definitely - Radiation makes sense, and space already has it, so why not a weapon, the downside could be energy drain.
Another cool missile, could stun your ship and make you drift *frozen for a few sec(s)*, and maybe even make your guns not work for a few seconds too - idk:P
