Default Re: SE4 Advanced brainstorming

AT was talking about this in another thread.

Mines could be satellites or more than likely drones that have a combat move, cloak, with a kamakazi attack, and a warhead. You emplace them in a sector, hidden, when combat is initiated, they will seek the enemy ships, they have armor, and % chance to be hit or missed. Make appropriate 'minesweeping' weapons, and have these defend your fleet, once the mines or the enemy are destroyed, or combat turns run out, your down. Lather rinse repeat. I guess the only problem I can think f right now is if a cloaked sat will initiate a combat with out specific orders, IE automatically. Also they would be nasty if defending a WP, due to the close proximity to the WP.

If they are drones, I don't know if they will require supplies, and have their automatic self-destruct when they run out of supplies, but it could be considered a good form of maintenance on the minefields, by having to replace them occasionally.
