You know how if you look at the picture for any of the missile launchers they have more than one barrel for launching? Take the siege launcher for example, it has close to 20 barrels, and yet its ROF is 5 seconds/missile. During some free time i had today, this idea sprung into my mind. "What would happen if there were some module that permitted the firing of all of the missiles in the launcher at one time?" I came to the conclusion that it would probably be overpowered to be hit with around 120 juggernaught torps at one time (assuming in a raven with siege launchers). Then i thought, "well what could permit them to exist?" and came to the conclusion of "an enourmous penalty for using them."
Here's what i was thinking, tell me your thoughts on 'em please...make improvements if you want too ^_^
Missile Barrage Unit I
works for light, heavy, seige, cruise, heavy assault, and assault missile launchers
consumes some ungodly % of cap
1000% increase to rate of fire for missiles
1000% increase to reload time for 1 minute
cannot warp for 30 seconds
in a sense it's kinda like a siege module, except for non-capitals...i was thinking that it could be used to break up gatecamps and such, or give a last stand before getting popped...

A vulcan cannon has 6 barrels but only fires one bullet at a time... bloody fast, just one at a time.

A penalty is not "enourmous" if your opponent is dead before it hits you. It makes absolutely no difference.
1. What is the equivalent for turret users?
2. Where is the counter?
3. What kind of penalty could possibly prevent every single player from using it?
An equivalent would be "Gee wouldn't it be cool if lasers had a module called Sphere of Death? It would do this:
Drain all your cap over 10 seconds.
Destroy all your crystals at the end.
Double the range of your lasers.
Automatically hit every target in range 10 times per second with each laser.
Cannot warp for 30 seconds.
The ship would rotate through space at a very high rate of speed firing lasers in every direction at an unsustainable rate for a brief period. PEW PEW PEW!"

i think this is a great idea, as long as my megathron gets a 1000% increase in rep amount and blaster damage for 1 minutes also, and all the other ships get there 1000% increase, and like everything gets booster 1000% then we can just call it normal :) w00t ...
Or no?

you see how close these launcher slots are on the images? if all the missiles would fire the same time they would just collide right away, blow up and damage your own ship

Overpowered ++ With your current idea, but then how about something to appease the battleship pilots that hate frigates/cruisers and those who want to nerf nos. The charge m3 needs to be adjusted to be in multiples of 4 rounds. Could be fun and wouldn't be overpowered. Its not overly different to the dual turrets.
Barrage Rocket Launcher (Frigate Launcher)
Launches 4 Rockets over 4 seconds.
rate of fire 20 seconds
Barrage Light Missile Launcher (Cruiser)
Launches 4 Light Missiles over 4 seconds
rate of fire 40 seconds.
Barrage Heavy Missile Launcher (Battleship)
Launches 4 Heavy Missiles over 4 seconds
rate of fire 40 seconds.
