When a supercarrier or titan is under attack by a large force, allow the attackers the option to try and capture it with the Entosis module.
Requirement:
*The ship must have about 20% structure hit points remaining, or whatever value that the ship would be effectively 'disabled'
*When the Entosis is used, the process will take X minutes, probably a significant amount of time.
*There is only about a 3% chance that the capture will happen, 97% more likely to trigger the self destruct mechanism and destroy the ship. If it is going to blow up, it will probably sooner after the process is started then later!
*If successful, hull repair modules will need to be used on the field to make the ship operational once again. All the modules and jump drive will be unable to be functional until this is done. Only the alliance of the pilot using the module will be able to board the ship and the old pilot will be ejected. Or something.
Lesser ships could also have this feature, with a higher chance of capture. But a significant time investment and vulnerability involved. |

Everybody come in and cap PL's supers all at once?
Given how sensitive the balance of this kind of thing is, it'll either be OP or useless. For starters, 97% chance of killing 20% of ehp of a titan in one shot sounds very OP. |

Yeah it is just some fluffy idea I had that won't ever happen unless it could be easily put in... If it worked just eject the pilot out and bump him away from it at a slow rate!
Yea, it could be something different....like 90% chance of cycling again, 7% change it blows up, 3% chance the pilot is ejected
ahahaha i just think of the wonderful moments that could potentially happen if it ever suceeds :D and then the reaction of the capturing force having to hull rep this damn thing real quick to make it work again before someone comes and finishes the job...It would be so epic |

Of course, the only people that could really hold the field are the people that shouldn't be able to get another one of these ships....I would have it so that shield and armor can not really be repaired when the ship is in a disabled state.
that is major flaw and kills this feature tho, although it would be some good content to watch them use hull repping slowcats on it rofl lol rofl |

The fact that you had to make it only a 3% chance shows that even you understand its a bad idea
Fuel block colors? Missiles for Caldari T3?

i played too much escape velocity in my childhood. I liked capturing a much bigger ship even if it only happened 1% of the time |
