' Wrote:In caps.
Huh? Asteroids are supposed to be dangerous. And i would like to care about not bumping into them. And i would like to see sair battleships crawling there being damaged with each and every asteroid bump.
Oh! Yes! Please, caps taking damage from big roids would, no pun intended, rock. That way unlawfuls can actually flee into an asteroid/scrap field and force caps to disengage. I do see a potential problem for the Hegemon though...
Quote:Getting rocks right into the hold is great, yes, until you realize the problems for lesser mining ships and, most importantly, that people can't steal each other's ore anymore. When it's about corporate "competitions" of different mining factions who don't like each other but don't want to shoot first, it's a great way to do it.
Thieving is thieving. This way you can't do the cruise-by-snatch without stopping and cracking open a miner. Which may not be easy. But Cannon's working on something for the small miners, once those join in again I imagine we'll be seeing ore pellets again. Fewer, but bigger ones.
