Another Hypothetical Question (1)

[worldstrider]

i d rather like to see transport versions of the flak, which is a pure defense weapon. - of course ten times lower damage than the battleship version - and mainly used to actually create a flak screen against CDs ( sort of like an active point defense system instead of only the passive CM )

missiles are damn hard to balance. - look at the recent threads about missiles. - complaints until we nerft them for fighters, complaints until we nerft them for gunboats etc.

they carry the stigma of a "no skill" weapon that makes the ace-pilots life hard. ( and an ace doesn t like it much to have a hard life - done by a "no-skill" weapon )

The idea I have ALWAYS suggested is to make the flak do practically no damage but have inertial effect--throwing the ship around that it hits. Would be perfect for this.
