Within the last few years Eve has introduced several new Personal Deployable Structures that can be used to benefit individuals or in some cases groups.
1 Mobile Siphon Units
2 Mobile Depots
3 Mobile Tractor Unit
4 Mobile Cynosural Inhibitor
5 Mobile MIcro Jump Drive
6 Mobile Scan Inhibitor
What about adding something new like a Mobile Force Field Generator. A deployable module that would create a POS style shield. This would be stationary, smaller (maybebig enough for a capital) and far less protective then a POS shield. It would provide temporary additional shelter, allowing the person and maybe a friend or two a few extra minutes to prepare for battle, call for backup or escape.
It could be configured to allow gang/corp members in or just the person deploying it. Attackers would be prevented from entering. The sheild would remain for say 5 minutes or destroyed whichever comes first and the module would be destroyed with a single use. Repping and other defensive actions would be allowed inside but no offensive actions or target locks on ships outside would be allowed while within the sheild.
Would ssomething like this be useful to you, or is it just a waste of isk and resources?
I was just wondering what you guys think about the idea?

Industrials (and pretty much any ship with a cargo bay to spare) will be nigh uncatchable with this kind of deployable.
Tackled? No problem. Drop a mobile shield or two, warp away.
Going to lose a fight? No problem. Drop a mobile shield and either escape or rep up.
Being primaried by a fleet? No problem. Drop a whole bunch of mobile shields and laugh as you fly around, poking out for a few seconds to shoot somethig before diving back in.
Limit it to one per person? No problem. Have your whole corp drop them en mass and set them "open to corp."
Limit it to one per X distance of another? Then the first person who drops a shield, gets the benefits of one.
Make them expensive? Oops. You just limited these things to the wealthier and more organized players.
Limit them to being dropped by a certain ship type? Guess what the new target prioritization is.
Restrict only so many per fleet/corp? "Shell-corps" and "spy/logistics fleets" are actually real things.
Really think about your idea before you post it. And when you do think about it, use the perspective of "how can I abuse this in a way that will frustrate my enemies and give me as many advantages as possible."
Then realize that other people in EVE will, in fact, do just that.
How did you Veterans start?
