' Wrote:I had a weird idea.

With the new concept of limited weaponry classes (Light, Medium, Heavy) for caps, make battleships powerhouses by giving them infinite hull and infinite powercore.

BUT

while the ship itself cannot be destroyed, SUBTARGETS on it could be destroyed. As an examples, the engines could be destroyed, making them sitting ducks by making them unable to strafe, the core destroyed to stop their destructive rampage by making them completely unable to fire (or possibly just make them able to fire light weaponry with a limited powercore), but those can't be touched until another subtarget, which would represent the shield, is removed. When all 3 components are destroyed, the battleship is destroyed.

Until these conditions are filled, battleships are free to shoot at whatever they want.

Just throwing a suggestion!

I like this idea - i read it in another topic somewhere - how about making the whole Battleship invincible, but not the subtargets?

Making the Battleship explode if special Tagets are destroyed? Like Shield Generator + Energy Generator + Bridge (added Cargopod?).

It would really add much much much more tatics in fighting a Battleship instead of simply going "Okay, fire all you got. Ready? Go!"

This could be a problem if the players needs to leave and can't F1 in enemy space without getting sanctioned.

But the idea's good, perhaps more subtargets, like being able to shoot off all the guns, and instead of no movement when the engine is destroyed, perhaps a slowper impulse/cruise speed would be better?
