Draining guns...

[Guest]

Here's an idea:

A special designed gun with zero hull or shield damage, but it drains your powercore instead?

Give it a class 9, make it rather power hungry and slap them on light fighters. Instantly you got a counter against bomberwhores like me.


Disruptor gun. A special heavy duty cannon for engine overloading. A projectile with SN speed, no hull or shield damage, but a TCD effect, and power hungry.




There are a few ideas left here and there, might just write them all down eventually, but apart from the /info command, here are more of them.

allready suggested this. basically shield draining is power draining as well
so you cant have one without another iirc.

But you can tone down frikkin power of all capships and make those coladas actually drain out something

Well i thought when you take fire your energy goes down so if a mortor hits you and you survive you lose a lot of energy but i do like the idea of a gun that does take energy. Although i can already see situations were people abuse it and have ships with just it to fire on enermy capitals while another just opens fire on it. But yer it has good RP.

Think it's been raised before, but I'm not sure what to make of this type of weapon. It would utterly render bombers useless if the pilot is skilled, which may force people into capitals. But that is a theory.

Interesting but it would severely unbalance the game even further I reckon.

Yeah, but in this case, normal power draining class 9 guns. If they had shield AND energy drain, they would be too good. Nah, let them be specilised.

[Ark]

I'd only go for this if energy independent projectile weapons were introduced.

[Guest]

caps you say...? Allright, make heavy duty turrets for capital ships as well?

[Magoo!]

I'm fairly certain that Debbies drain your power. Like, hardcore. Me brother was in a Stinger, and I downed his batteries in about six shots. (24 technically)
