I would love to see a capture option. POW's. Take a 16 man team down to 10. (think a max of 6 prisoners) . For each capture, you get 25 WP (half a kill), and a bonus 5% ISK/ prisoner still in custody.
"How to get you team member back?" you might be asking. This is where the ISK bonus comes from, players can "BUY" a team member back. players can free a squadie or even a fellow blueberry. I think the higher in gear the higher the cost to un-POW.
Would add a new layer to the battle field. |

Yeah, but that sorta gets negated by the idea that Immortals would just kill themselves in order to avoid being captured. The whole "We're all in clone bodies that are practically disposal" thing would lead to installing some sort of suicide fail safe in the suits or the good old fashioned cyanide capsule hidden in a soldier's mouth.

risk a clone that your team is depending on? I'm still all for it. Suicide included.
Let'em I say. Suicide eats one of your team's clones. and the immortal won't be so immortal as they lose match after match due to cloning.
POW's would make for much better matches, and as I said add a deeper layer of strategy. |

Look at it this way: Which is more cost effective, having to risk your guys to try to get a small handful of your people back, or just having a sniper shoot them from a distance so that they can respawn again?
Plus, why would you risk capturing someone for such small payoff if they can easily just commit suicide and come back at you? Now, if the soldiers were not able to transfer their conscious into a new clone, this idea would work perfectly and make total sense. Sure, nobody wants to lose a clone, but nobody wants to lose a player during a match even more.
