Default Re: OT - Who wants to write a "roguelike" game? How about a 4X?

Gotta have leaky armor!
Things are more exciting when every hit has subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) effects on your abilities.
Near- Instant death combat would tend to make it an exercise in save/load.

And dangerous components... Carring a lot of missile ammo should make you worry when a bLaster shot starts a fire in your supply bays!
Antiproton beams doing bLast damage to your hull when they get destroyed. Watch out for chain reactions!
It would also encourage a mix of safer, but less powerful weaponry amidst the Uberguns.
