I was sifting through some old topics and I came across THIS particular one that got me thinking. What's the point in Countermeasures when everyones mounting Train CDs these days? Their effectivley obsolete now, and only some of the fastest fingers amongst us can actually get them to work half of the time.

So I propose making a CM-6, or at least a replacement for the CM-4 or CM-5 that effectivley reduces the effectivness of a train CD missile to Wasp. By this i mean, it pretty much robs the missile of it's increased radius disruption. This could be done through a EMP field around the CM that halves the missile's potential or whatever; we can use our imaginations.

But the catch is (So as not to make the CD obsolete), that this baby will have the same kinda price tag as the cheetah thruster. So people will have to fork out over 20 million to buy it, and not every tom, dick and harry is going to feel they need it.

Money/Cost generally isnt a very large demotivator when buying items... look at how many battleships we have here.

Good point. Then make it unequippable by capitol ships. The price demotivator shal remain as it seems to have worked with the Cheetah thruster.

30 Million? It's not so much that it's small pennies, people are concerned about it's value for money these days.

A disruptor caught by a CM cannot disrupt anything. No effect if you prefer. It apply with the TCD.

Only problems with the CM are the gunboat missiles that can't be counter easily.
