Swarm Missile Pod

[The Damned]

Swarm missile pods ARE a good idea. But the re-fire rate is, IMO, too high. If the re-fire rate was something like double the rate of all the original homing missiles it'll probably work.

We can just make them with twice the refire of normal missles , get them to mount on a gun/missle slot , and rename them to something like energy missle pack or something. Then theyll become a cheap less powerfull alternative of normal missles , wich use energy and dont suffer from ammo hunger. It will be a great missle launcher for ppl who don't want to spend additional $$ for ammo , or don't want to loose ammo after death. Of course we might make each shot eats energy like a code gun or so, to compensate for the lack of ammo. The damage of the missle should be average for missles - lets say 2000 hull 1000 shield, and the tracking capabilities of stalker missle-class. The price might be half a mil, and with the ability to mount it as a missle pod will it be a good perspective for the weapon. Assuming that the refire is no more than 1.0. Thats my vision of the matter. I really like the idea of energy-using missle launcher, but not an energy swarming thingy - its just too...n00by, i don't like it. Besides causes tons 'o lag.
