This sounds good. I think proto versions should have Khanid names.

Yes caldari, support the tool of your vehicle's demise!

Nope, explosive dmg < shield tank
On a side-note, i hope they add dmg types...

An angled missile launcher that's main construction is towards the front but the missile comes out from an port towards the rea that has a 45-¦ angle. The biggest change from the swarm other than it only firing one missile at a time, would be that it would fire the amarr missile type which is anti shield. Another change is that it wouldn't be lock on, but have to be laser designated for a about a second or two via a laser attached to the front that does a light amount of damage ( about a forth of the laser rifles and not affected by any sort of damage augmentation) that according to eve lore would have an infinite amount of ammo because of it's low power.
As a bonus for having the laser on target past the missile launch, it'll hit exactly where the laser is pointed, allowing for hits on the vehicle's weak points but it'll still hit regardless to if the laser is kept on target.

If you wanna see a sketch of it message me and any thoughts?

How about a big laser? It would fit the amarr better imo. But they do use missiles on some of there things.

Amar dont really use missels they use lasers and if u ask me some real science fictiong homing beams makes more sence then the missiles even if those homing beams have no reality behind them

No im more in favor of a jiant laser rifl of sorts leave the missles to the caldari

actually, this sounds closer to missle + target painter. Target painters are minmatar. So other than changing the race, I think it's a pretty decent idea.

Many Khanid ships are built to be missile boats. And as far as missile load out, make it ammunition selectable (EM/Therm/Expl/Kin), but only one ammo type carry-able at a time.

And amarr khanid ships get get a bonus to Em missiles so this works perfectly with the lore

Yes, but I'd have the laser designator be zero damage, fast flight on the missile, and the laser has to be maintained on target for the duration of the flight of the missile.

I think keeping the laser on should only enhance tracking as the missile would track using? the knowledge passed to it from the initial laser painting and the laser should do just a light amount of damage to add to the incentive to keep the laser on target

It's the "splash" of the laser that the missile homes in on, not damage, and the target has to be "painted" for the duration of the munitions flight. Current laser designators don't damage the target in any way and current laser guided munitions still find their targets just fine. Besides, if the laser designator does damage in game, then the in game target will know from which direction the shot is coming from before the missile hits it.

Sounds interesting. Submit to Wolfman.

I don't play EVE but I get that Amarr can have missiles too.

Scrambler pistols fire missiles. They are Amarr weapons.
