EDIT: Btw, the Armor of spaceships usually is not made out of any kind of metal. Interesting didn't know that.And what armor are made of?
I guess Steel Plates means that the armor is made out of Yule Bread....meh. Learn something new everyday.
I think what the OP means is a repulsion type of weapon that when used could force a ship away from the attacking ship based upon the mass of the targeted vessel and the capacitor of the targeting ship.
Not certain if CCP fixed it or not but before when you warped into a belt and came in contact with an asteroid the impact would send your ship hurtling at outrageous velocities nearly 100 times the ships actual velocity in the opposite direction.
If CCP could incorporate this fluke into an actual module and mechanic of the game PVP and PVE would take on a whole other level. |

Just keep talking about the idea and go into depth with the idea even more to keep the thread going.
You will have to define some mechanics involving physics such as a stationary ship using the module would be have to use x amount of capacitor at range x to effect the targeted ship at range x from the stationary ship to effect the blow back or repulsion of the targeted ship.
The criteria below is the mechanics that need established. The first column is the players ship using the module and the second column is the effected ship
Stationary ship vs. stationary ship
Stationary ship vs. orbiting ship
Stationary ship vs. incoming ship
Stationary ship vs. outgoing ship
Orbiting ship vs. stationary ship
Orbiting ship vs. orbiting ship
Orbiting ship vs. incoming ship
Orbiting ship vs. outgoing ship
Incoming ship vs. stationary ship
Incoming ship vs. orbiting ship
Incoming ship vs. incoming ship
Incoming ship vs. outgoing ship
Outgoing ship vs. stationary ship
Outgoing ship vs. orbiting ship
Outgoing ship vs. incoming ship
Outgoing ship vs. outgoing ship

but im not sure....
It would have to be either Kinetic, Explosive or Heat in the terms of force applied as all of these forces have a type of Newtonian Physics applied and will remain constant with " when a body has a force placed against it the body will react comparable to force placed against it."
EM would not be used because it really does not have a physical force multiplier but is geared more towards particle disruption at the atomic level. |

Very true Alduin because if my ship was made of Yule Bread and not metal I would be sitting around eating it instead of flying it.
Here is a picture of magnetic repulsion of like fields.
http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/d4/Feeling_magnetic_repulsion.JPG
Basically the module would function in the same3 manner as the magnetics in the image. Each race would have a base factor for determining the magnetic repulsion.
When armor plates and hardeners or fitted as well as shield enhancement modules the values generated would be based off of each type of shield or armor enhancement fitted to the ship compared to the type of Repulsion module fitted to the players ship.
Range would be limiting factor however as in order to generate a large field the module would have to be the size of the core of the sun or larger.
But since this is sci-fi fiction based on actual science the range values would be similar to the actual range values of a gravitational field surrounding the Earth where the farther away you went the less gravity is felt on the ship leaving the planets zone of influence.
So when Alduin flips that BIG RED switch on his panel that says Repulsory Module the effect would be immediate and would have the most influence within 2000 meters then a moderate level of influence at 5000 meters and then a marginal influence at 10,000 meters. After 10k meters the effect would not be felt.
The module would also have a secondary effect of breaking locks of targeted ships similar to the Target Breaker Module. Other effects would be that the Repulsion Wave would reduce lock times and weapons modules tracking speed that would be determined from how far away the attacking ship was to the attacked ship.
Similar to ECM but with a dual purpose.
Only one module could be fit to a ship in the medium slot. If this module is used in High Sector it would create aggro thus necessitating a response from Concord. |

Hey, how about your next idea resolves around a hacking tool for enemy ships so you can make them selfdestruct?
Or better jet, a frigsized Doomsday device in the form of the old ones, just with 10 times the power?
And about your part of "Lets add some immagination"
EVE is "Science Fiction" with the word "Science" in it. Guess what your idea has nothing to do with.
EDIT: Just to make one thing clear, you can bend physics so it works in your context but redefining one of the core forces of the universe just for a gimmicky weapon that "bypasses every defence" just so you can have your fun is kinda stupid, dont you think? My friend many great scientific achievements and discoveries were based in fiction and not real facts that existed before .The others who like my idea please continue posting to keep the thread active thank you.
You are correct Alduin - Take the speed of light for example. Einstein says it can't be broken. Simple logic however states that if you remove the obvious in this case being the determining factors associated with the creation of a light photon which is a Sun and the only other celestial body able to affect a light photon that being a black hole then what velocity would the light photon be able to travel at?
Faster than the speed of light of course. |

Here is another way the mechanic could work. Earlier at the corps POS in .2 I ran into a parked Iteron IV at full speed with a Venture. The Venture nearly flipped the Iteron IV end over end. I then approached the Iteron IV at a close range of 500m and the Venture still cause the Iteron IV's engines to turn on and move several meters.
The same mechanics involved with bumping could be used in a module where the field extends around the ship at various distances and would bump the attacked ship in various magnitudes. |
