.com.unity Forums - Another comp. idea...

Yes, that's right, I've came up with another comp. idea. I would try making something to this effect but I'm no good with making that kind of stuff. I'm not experts like all of you out there. But here it goes:

Name: Something along the lines of "Energy
Absorber I" Or something to that effect.

Abilitys: It's a 75KT componate that as the name indicates absorbs energy from enemy fire. It can absorb say 100 HP per combat turn, and thus use those HP's towards it's own weapon. So basically this componate is a weapon that the more HP's it takes the more powerful it becomes. But the catch to putting it on your ship would be it takes up alot of space, and it cost alot of resources. Say 5K of each, min, orgs, rads. And it would only be able to absorb that 100 HP for a maximum of 5 turns, thus creating 500 HP worth of added HP towards the already built in firepower. So like the 1st one to be researched could be size 50KT and cost 2K of all resources and absorb say 30 HP's per turn up to 5 turns in a row before releasing that power. 2 could be 75KT cost 4K of all resources and absorb say 60 HP's per turn up to 5 turns in a row before releasing that power; and finally 3 could be 100KT in size, cost 6K of all resources and absorb a max of 100 HP's per turn up to 5 turns in a row before releasing that power against the enemy. This is an idea that I'd thought I'd see if it possible to be done and if anyone could help me figure out how to do it. I probably lost you all so far... But it's all good... So let me know what you all think. Thanks!
