A visual distortion field "grenade" was mentioned months ago, so I expect we will get it eventually.

Will the shield and/or any of our other equipment modules be retrievable? If so a logi might be persuaded to equip one to drop when reviving a fallen teamate. If it was essentially a one use item it wouldn't be worth sacrificing the slot for it.

How does the attrition attack on a defender who goes 1:1 and manages to win each battle by a few clones go if the attacker is using clone packs rather than districts for an unlimited clone supply? This could be done by a corp with no district, or...

The defender losing the district even when winning each battle can happen when they are constanty attacked by starter packs. A corp with deep pockets can wipe out a smaller corp simply by outspending them. This can be done via a splinter corp if ...

You have a problem when a corp can win every battle but still lose their district. With a minimum clone loss of 150, the attackers won't bring any less. That means the defenders would lose 75 clones if they managed a win with a 2:1 KDR. That's w...

The basic problem with PC as a business venture is that the rewards of district ownership are dwarfed by the cost of maintaining that ownership. If you win every battle your corp earns 4M/day (assuming you are selling all clones manufactured. In ...

Another major question that crops up is the nature of our equipment. Is it physical or virtual? The current precedent is virtual. We purchase a certain number of licenses to produce copies of a specific item, be it a gun, dropsuit, or nano-injec...

So the defender is limited to the clone count at the start of the timer, but what of the attacker? As I read it, they can keep calling in follow on attacks from different districts until they whittle the defenders down to nothing. That means an a...
