RADS = radioactive adman defense station
adman beinf a made up man how crated the defense station.

this whood look like sinser station on the map. when ativated it will depoly a radoative nabua arwnd the station.

it duss not use speahl enargy so it can stay active indefintly. it can be terned off and on to let ship pass.

it is unmand and can not be capcherd like ternits or sinser arms.

So basically one would be able to create a wall around its base??

I just dont like the idea of that, cause that would just lead to obsessive bunkering which sux :-S

it cood be used for that/ but if oyu di you cood cose probloms like diring a batal if a ship or ships are damged and need to retern to bace thare is a good chage thay will end up going thowe the radeative area.

so it whood have to be used carfuley.

the wall its self can be takin dawn by distroying the RADS that are making the redoaciive area you wont to pass thow.

i like the idea, but the nebular should slowly disperse, as nebulars don't just disapear.

Didn't we JUST get a wall idea? I would like to point out that star trek ships have the ability to deflect gamma radiation, so unless you got some other kind up your sleeve, this doesn't work. That and wall ideas just suck *** in a 3 dimensional enviroment because they don't make sense.

Preciselly my thoughts

what about that giant nebula that voyager had to pass through, & all but seven and the doctor had to go into stasis untill they had cleared it?

it doesn't suck, but i do think if it were implemented for 1 race then it would cause a serious rebalancing of all the others.

I agree with Cpt Ryan, this seems like something that we could return to for v4 or v5, but would take way too long to modify v3's balancing system for.

well Eufnoc the RADS keep it going. ok we can call it what ever works. felds of floting gass in a2 and fo so far ave ben caled nebuls thats whay i called this a nebula.

PD this is not a wall its a radoacative nebula. most tipes of radeation is defelatied, but thare are some tipes of radeation at hianuff levals that have hert star ships. if you have a beter idea i am all ears PD.

Cpt Ryan what about giving to a race that is not bilt yet or a NPC race?

I DO have a better idea, how bout instead of magically making huge nebulas to protect yourselves, you find natural defenses inside whatever map your playing and take advantage of them. I swear if I find another wall thread i'm stabbing ewm in the stomach, and I WILL TWIST.

Look just the possibility of this idea turning into a wall makes it sucky, maybe if this was a map unit ok, and place it on key positions, but thats as far as I would be willing to go

as a map unit i dont think it whood be very sucsefule.

PD this is fecher request and hinding on the map is not a feecher. ferther more hinding on the map works for up to 4 ships when you get past that it starts to get to be a real problom depinding on the map.

Wtf you talking about?

sary i ment to say..

you can still find a place to fortify your self on the map with out RADS. this is only for one race maby it whood work good with the Noxter.

this station for definsive perpuses only and cane be takin dawn frly easly.

It takes away from other defensive measures you can use. Turrets are alot more effective in 3D enviroments then any physical barrier because they have range.
