I have previously proposed deadspace armor plates, which I feel would add more viable fitting options for the more expensive subcapital ships. I'm not sure if a deadspace fitted buffer tanked Marauder would be viable but I'd be interested to see it tested. There'd also be more bling on the field in incursions which could drive conflict.
I'd be a lot more hesitant to support the introduction of deadspace tackle modules, as they would have a very large impact on ship balance, especially at the assault frigate level.

I'd seriously dislike deadspace plates, as they won't be used on battleships, but on t3s and HACs, making taking these ships even further out of whack compared to battleships, which as my sig indicates, is a topic dear to my heart.
I think the problem here is that 1600mm plates have fitting requirements low enough to comfortably fit on T3s, HACs and even some T1 cruisers, which is simply not the case for other battleship modules like Neutron Blaster Cannon II. I don't have the solution to this issue (unless deadspace plates come with the same clunky "this can only be fitted to these ship classes" as is found on microjumpdrives).
Not sure the baby should be thrown out with the bathwater here.
