I was toying this idea around in my head the other day. Empire wars are a pain to fight because of undock tactics amirite? I would introduce a module that would only be able to fit on an interdictor that say has a % chance, I was toying with 25 but CCP can prolly make a better call on that or make it like 5% per level trained or somethin, to scramble your landing system for 30 seconds making you unable to dock at a station or jump through a gate.
I think this would be a great way to make interdictors really useful in empire by giving them a role to keep war targets from being able to land while making it a fair shot for the pilot on the receiving end. I am sure people can work out the further details but I think this could be a pretty awesome module.

There should be no such thing as a completely infaliable get out of jail free card in EVE.

just make it the same as a warpscram, else you will always have the get-out-of jail freecard, even if it has a 25% chance.
rule 1: if you get a ship, you WILL lose it
rule 2: if you undock, act as your ship is already dead
docking games ruin the rules!

I like it. A way to end docking games which also give interdictors a role. Two thumbs up from me, though I'd give it more if I had more than 2 hands....

or an electronics viral module that forces activation of a random mid/high slot module of an opponent, if they happen to be targetting something.

I am really debating it in my head. 5% per level to 25% or 10% to 50%. 100% would be ridiculous but I think 50% is pretty fair if you train it to lvl 5. Hmmmm.

Brilliant! Give people too afraid to fight in 0.0 a way to more easily gank poorly defended targets that you outnumber 10 to 1!

How about this
Make it a highslot module that needs to be on a cruiser or larger, and will take a good portion of a cruiser's fittings when used.
It stops the target from docking. Very simple.

I think we need to give a good role to interdictor pilots in Empire. Something only they can use.

I like the idea primarily since it gives interdictors a role in empire and docking games are bs.

I think it's a very interesting idea, and docking games really are quite tedious.
It might be a bit TOO open to griefing as anyone undocking a BS is basically not going to be warping out and is unlikely to be able to dock either.
My current favourite for dealing with people who like undock games is a shield buffer gankadomi. Overheated 1500dps (4000+ alpha) says HI.

I would suggest a different aproach. If your deagression timer is running and someone agresses you it is reset. So if you decide to fight outside station and kill all targets the old system applies and you dont have to wait ridiculously long to redock, otherwise you can't redock as youd would have to finish the fight once you decided to fight.
There are people that simply are not interested to fighting you, and the warp to 0 at station is not a real warp to 0 espetially for a hauler.

I have a better idea, wardec a corp or alliance in zero or low that wants to fight or will fight back. Stop being a *****cat... I mean come on, go to zero and fight there...

There's stations in 0.0 and lowsec too you know.
As for the OP, I hate chanced based mechanics with a passion so not signed. Docking games need to be nerfed, but making the whole process a chance based cluster**** will just cause more whining from all involved while leaving the core problem unsolved.

It all makes sense except for one thing that makes it BLATANTLY ILLOGICAL.
The apparatus on the ship doesn't handle docking or jump gate function, that's handled externally by the station or the gate.
Also, you are asking for a get out of jail free card for the pirates. As it is you can't jump or dock in 30 seconds if you've committed an act of aggression. This is just asking to make piracy easier for no apparent reason.

I think I outlined the reason pretty well. Unless you have a war dec or are doing this in 0.0 it will fail because station guns will demolish an interdictor pretty fast. Notice I did not include heavy dictors in this. They already have a specialty with their focused warp scram. This would not be so effective for pirates and would cost quite a bit in ships should they choose to use it without a war dec or in 0.0. And I know some of you ***** about chance based mechanics but I just can't see how having it at 100% would be fair.
As for the last person who decided to nit pick the science with me I am sure we an find a way to fit the actual module into Eve without breaking your precious make believe science on the internet spaceships. Would disrupting docking/jumping broadcast requests work for you on great guru of the interwebs spaceships?

The module can either/and/or:
a. Disrupt communication between the ship and the station/gate, preventing the ship from being towed/allowed to warp.
b. Disrupt the lock of the station onto the ship in an ECM-type way. This lack of lock would prevent the ship from being tractored in. While this may be considered a hostile act against the station you are in fact targetting the ship and all the station knows is it cannot get a lock.
c. Warp disrupt the ship in a way that prevents jumps throuh gates.
d. Insert code into the station/gate which flags the target ship as potentially hstile and requiring verification on identification. Such verification will take x seconds and may need a further verification.
e. Insert excuse here.
Never let fluff get in the way of game mechanics.
As for the idea itself, if it were to be realised then it should have high fitting requirements and/or be available to very few ships since it would be a very powerful tool.

When you dock, tractor beams haul you into the station. They'd have a tougher time if you're webbed, amirite?
So easy thing would be to have a 15-20 second docking timer if you're webbed, regardless of aggression. Or, even better, just some distance you need to cover before being actually 'docked' so both ship speed and the number of webs being used would affect this.
If you jump into enemies, you're fracked. If you warp into enemies, you're fracked. If you undock into enemies, you should also be pretty much... yes, fracked.

That is why I proposed it only go on the Interdictor. Give the interdictor a fitting bonus for the CPU or something like they do with cov ops cloaks.

There's a simpler solution to docking games:
1- Introduce a "look outside" function when docked.
2- If you undock however, you undock 10 kms from the station.
There! No more docking ***gotery.
