Ok first let's assume that Dictors and Hdictors do not exist, otherwise this idea is completely negated.
Basically the idea is that rather than stealth bombers launching bombs that do AOE damage, that they would instead launch payloads that do high amounts of damage to a single target but have very short range. Essentially it would be a move away from cluster busting, and towards precision target elimination.
The problems that I personally see with this is that stealth bombers might need a bonus to the range at which they can be uncloaked.
I really don't care about implementing it, I just thought it would put an interesting spin on the ship class and thought I might share it with others.

No reason to change them.

Edited by: Jack Tronic on 07/08/2011 06:22:01 Payloads? Single target? Short Range? It's called torpedoes brah, and alreay fitted. This will not change because you are otherwise advocating for an mini ****ing doomsday. |

I agree there needs to be a way that Stealth bombers can attack all types of targets just like every other ship, i propose that there be 2 types of bombers one that has a bonus for torpeados ( Fleet Fights ) , and another type that has a bonus for missile launcher damage and not rockets but heavy missiles etc.. for small gang skirmish.

Yeah you could say I'm asking for a mini-doomsday that has a range of 5000m, doesn't do near the amount of damage, and is fitted to a ship that when discover gets lit up like a friggen Christmas tree.
Well mini-doomsday might be pushing it very hard, more like an extra large Torpedo on steroids.
I don't care if it will or won't get implemented, I just want to discuss what I thought would be an interesting idea.
Torps are nice and all, but a stealth bomber sitting up to 45km away lobbing multiple missile salvos does not match what my definition of stealth bomber.

thinking your expecations are too high for these things. EFT some bs fits and compare to a bomber. With racial torps alone, you are easily pushing 1 bs' worth of damage (dps or volley). In some cases close to 2 bs's worth of damage (eft a 8 X 425 II rokh for a comparison...the numbers will have you go wtf lol)....
All on a frigate frame that pretty much gets around solo with no issues (bubbles and instalockers only thing you fear) and can decide when and where it fights.
Its not meant to be a solo own mobile. Want it be more lethal solo...patience you must learn. Let them rats beat down your target some more...if lucky get them elite frigs to e-war/scram/web it....then put out a few salvos. Many ratters are greedy...happily jump from a triple 1.8 spawn that made em sweat to the next when they'd be better off chilling till max ehp again.
Or run as designed....sb's are wolf pack ships. few friends and you all pushing out high dps. 1-2 salvos per torp bomber...short of a cap its dying. And off you all go back into the void of space.
