I'm liking this revised version much more. 
I have one question (still need to re-read/digest detail of the blog more) from the 'example' given:
Quote:The Medium Citadel will stay invulnerable for a specific amount of time (again, how and when is still left to debate). LetGÇÖs say the Medium Citadel will come out of invulnerability 24 hours after the repair timer started, so 19:40GMT on Sunday.
Would you consider using Strontium (up to 24 hours of) for this? Strontium timer 'kiting' i.e. adjusting up/down based upon your opponents expected 'prime time', is a very valid piece of game play at the moment, which would be a shame to lose (as well as the potential of strontium loading 'f-ups'/SPAI drama, and content creation that arises thereafter)
ps. hope you are going to write some cool 'fluff' around this [siege process] too, to go with the visual effects e.t.c. On the note visual effects, if would be cool if the shields flared different colour/effect for the shield/'armour' timers (i.e. it's the shield that becomes temporarily invulnerable during each step)

I really like the 'built-in Target Spectrum Breaker' idea of Skia Aumer, soft cap as opposed to hard cap, and can be implemented using something already in game (though would need some tweaking I think).

Quote:Note: Will affect all targeting computers, including those of friendly vessels, of vessels immune to electronic warfare, and of the host ship itself. Can be fitted to Battleship, Black Ops and Marauder class ships.

Yup, though, not sure how high the threshold (number of ships targeting) is for it to have an effect, hence there's probably few, if any instances of it breaking locks on Supers/Dreads.
However, it's there, and could be tweaked into an alternative approach to a 'hard' damage cap for Citadels.

Any updates/thoughts on some of the feedback in the thread? e.g. the use of the Target Spectrum Breaker mechanic?

So any update? thoughts on the feedback here e.g. use of target spectrum breaker mechanics as a 'natural' damage cap?
