How about make an anti-cloak satellite? Made at player bases. The LN in Vanilla had something similar to that.

Best idea I've seen so far.

I like the Idea of an Satellite aswell, though the question is how it would work?

Would you need to set it up like Weaponplatforms?
Would it be an equipment for the ship that you then drop? (don't know if it's possible or Hardcoded)
What would the range be?

And with Torps as Cloakbreaker, the game doesn't make a difference between Light/medium/heavy cloak IIRC.
So it would be just one Torp type, which imo should replace the CD for Snubs if it ever gets implemented.

That's my 2 Credits

If these things to be implemented, they should come at a no lesser cost than a cloak itself, including operational costs. Satellite idea, that is constructed at player bases, is a good one.

Alternative would be implementation of such device with either very expensive ammo, or rare ammunition that is being made at player bases only. After all, you will only need to fire it once at a BS, to get your blue message.

Requires coding, means automatic no at this point. Also, if it's simply a matter of doing damage, a single TCD or RCD could do the job in a much wider blast radius.

i repeat,im like the creator of idea,against to add it to fighters,this is not fighter role to use such powerful and new weapon and stop cloaking targets,this is breaking all team play and units balance.

I repeat my position:
Light anticloak (antisnub) =====> only Gunboats.
Heavy anticloak torpedo =====> bombers
Heavy anticloak missile =====> destroyers\cruisers\BC on cruiser heavy slot.

Give it to fighters - mean kick out Gunboat and bombers from fighter wing.fighters can CD it when it will be cloaked,this is enough for them.

Flaming about give toy only for cruiser from "Why So serious" - no,lets give it to fighters,for fair fights,and because you flying only fighters.

Our team has all types of ships,and im like the BS,but as you can see im not lobby it for BSs turels.So you flaming is missed.

And this fight with this role already balanced,give this to fighter - this is mean to give "tomahawk" super new missle which will fighter will care.

I repeat at min only bombers can care torpedo.fighters - NOT.
This is mean that bombers will not need such as anticloak heavy patrols.And fighter will do all alone,im against such discrimination. Fighter are light units. And this is heavy weapon.

P.S.you talking like you cant place cloak + docking modules and armor - and this is calling balance...
but give anticloak for fighter,with CD for agile unit which can run every time - you calling a balance? no,this is wrong.Fighter not must take bombers torpedoes. Their role - CD and snubs fight.

You position is create heavy wing of snubs, without Capital ships,this is wrong and killing all team play.Where snubs again will be overpowered. Nobody can hit them,but they can do heavy damage. This is wrong.
They will anticloak light and heavy targets,without capital ships,this is wrong.
Snubs are snubs - their role in heavy new weapon is secondary.Fighters must detect enemy with cloak and CD it,other units must anticloak it.For snubs already enough find it. But give them weapon to anticloak it - this is OP.

Don't want to make you sad, but you ain't first who had idea for cloak distruptor.

And just in case... Fighter's should be able to disable cloak from ship attempting to run. Because fighters can't deal much damage due to weponry, they should provide maximal support to bombers. Fighter stops, holds and make target wisible, snac and nova target. How this breaking team play?

To be more....*laugh* "REALISTIC" make this cloak distruptor to have amo, not like snac. So, you can decide what you want to wear- CD, MR, Torp, EMP.
