Could be interesting but to prevent the attackers fom getting screwed over you would have to be able to give them some way out, say a grab it and run where they lose some of the kit they've captured but can still get the rest out. that leaves the attackers with a "grab and handful and improve our chances of getting it out" method or a "go for broke, lets grab everything and risk the major confrontation" one. I see a system like that being abused though. Why risk a snatch all one day, when you can take 10% of a corps assets during thier off hours whenever you want? Sure, they can hire mercs, but its not realistic to expect every corp to have full time 23/7 defense they can rely on.
Maybe this is where drones and PvE come in to play. Corps could buy drones and AI to defend 23/7 |

Yep, or better yet you essentially have one of the most difficult PvE matches of your life, limited clone reserves( 4, 6...some number provided each time an Eve player successfully fires a pod into enemy ship's hull), and to top it all off a certain window of time before Enemy Dust marines are contracted and activated aboard the ship...talk about the ultimate challenge and greatest feeling of success I can imagine :) |

That would be cool. You get a 6 man squad but no clone reserves, if a guy dies he's done and you have a squad of 5 now. That would definitely make you think about your loadouts before trying to take someones warehouse. |

I could see that working for a Black Ops type drop. Perhaps a new T2 Battlecruiser, the Black Ops dropship.
Only holds 6-10 clones, and once they are gone, you have to go and resupply more. But, it doesnt trigger an alarm until 10-15 minutes after the first clone drops in. Or a merc triggers an alarm on the ground by doing something dumb :D |

Right, and it would be an entirely Interdependent game-play: Eve players need to launch pods with a special "pod bay" and need to reload each time (pods being used as ammo) They can launch "clone pods" or "Ammo Pods"...possibly some kind of Small MTAC dreadnought size walker...
Regardless, you Dust players would be doing whatever while they were on standby for the battle and when they got a beacon, they would essentially drop what they were currently doing and join the "match" with their pre-fitted gear and clones. Essentially the Eve players create the match by attacking with pods and the Dust players are strictly dependent on very limited resources and gear that they bring to eventually fight their way through the ship. They would likely have advantages in destroying reactors, engine systems, shields, Equipment, Weapon systems and eventually breaching the pilot's quarters and ejecting him from the ship...or simply destroying the ship with core meltdown...either way it would be one hell of a challenge and probably one of the coolest experiences you'll ever have in a game.
You could even have the battle continue if the target escapes the fleet battle as you are still on board fighting. In such a case, a ship would want to dock up and clean you out or vice versa you could essentially destroy it's jump drives and leave it stranded for allies to catch up to it... devastating stuff here  |

Hellsyeah man, I think we commented on that a little in the above threads ^^ I really look forward to doing something like a Black-Ops mission |
