Antimatter Dumpships

posted on August 15th, 2004, 2:40 pm

I was thinking about having a antimatter dumpship for any spieces besides the Feds (environmentalists) or the Noxter (do they even have antimatter) that costs credits (it'll be a big ship) and you can send it ahead of your fleet to damage the enemies ships and stations. It'll be a suicide run but it can do a lot of damage.

that would be very unbalanced as everyoone would try to build them as fast as possible and send it to the enemy base

well no as they may only have the power to maybe blow up a samll building (ie defence platform) not a average or bigger station (ie mining col) maybe costing 4 credits so u have two at a time send it in to help kill defences as well as your fleat.

Only game any race used this was the Feds in SFC2, I think they need something like this anyway since they have a lack of large weapons. Plus Klingons and Dominion already have large guns, or will soon.

Well inferior defiant, you gotta think about game balance, usefulness and if the ideas are actually possible before you request them.

HEY! I did not know that there was someone with Defiant in their name! I barged into these boards without looking at anything! But anyways, I was also thinking, what if the dumpship was non-player, it was just something (like the Ferengi in the other games) that popped outta nowhere and started dumping antimatter around the area. It would stay there for about 5-10 minutes, then it would disapate. And if the poor stooge driving the vessel accidently went in to a base, he/she would be destroyed quickly. Basically he/she would make weak (uhhh, can't remember their name...) red nebulas around the area, only they aren't red! Is that ok supierior defiant?

Why would a random ship dump anti-matter in open space?
