How would it sound to have Suicide Ships introduced into the game, complete with modules to increase damage and blast radius. I know it sounds a lot like the self destruct idea, however there could also be frieght goods that you could fill your cargo hold with that would slow you down but increase damage (i.e. blow up big!). Now I know a lot of people would be worried about people using alts to just get these ships and plough them into Concord convoys etc, which is why I propose that the skill requirements be high. The ships of course, should not cost very much at all; primarily due to the fact that it'll be space-mush in a few minutes. Any comments?

I like the idea of fitting different modules to adjust the damage given, I think it would rock actually. Obviously a side effect would be, if in a fleet battle, your suicide might get destroyed while amongst the rest of the fleet causing mayhem.

I agree, which would make the whole thing more dangerous to do... thus more rare; coz let's face it - we don't want millions of suicide ships plummeting into battles everyday.

i was actually talking with a friend about this last night, but about self destructing ships doing damage. to be realistic it would have to do all 4 types of damage:
EM from the sheild matrix going critical
thermal from the reactor overload
kinetic from the flying debris
and explosive..cause well common the ship is blowing up.
specific moduals or items could increase the range and damage types..say like up to 1000 total of each damage type depending on range and the items in/on the 'fireship'.
would be kinda neat to see a few of these careen into a fleet and blow, taking out several ships or at least critically damaging them. also the explosion would be pretty

I was thinking about some sort of Kamikaze ship that doesn't have an omnidirectional blast, but a directed impact towards the ship it crashes into.
Another way to limit the use of this would be to make it impossible for the pilot to survive, so he'll have to wake up in a new body every time it's used.

Why would you need suicide ships? Any missile frigate with cruise missiles (Kestrel, Inquisitor, Breacher) would do the job.

could be a desperate tactic developed by people who have traditionally struggled for freedom (minmatar)...
