mole (class 3 ship)

this class 3 ship infiltrates into the enemy fleet and sabotage 5 enemy ships so they can´t fight anymore.


attack/life: 0/100
manpower: 250

researchtime: 1 d 12 h
buildingtime: 14 h


kazuuula-technology
needed research:
emp technology

battle details:
jams 5 ships in the enemy fleet in the class it fights with and you get back the initiative
battlemessage: "mole infiltrates and jams ... ships"
(battle engine syntax: jam,enemy,5,this,mole infiltrates and)

[JaM]

This is my invention, lately there aren't much kazuuula tech and till now it isn't possible to jam a class 3 ship, which can be very useful against dreads.

Maybe the mp is a little too low and it should be 300 mp, but after all it is in the forum for discussion

[KEPcH]

A little bit less mp. 200max

[Achilles]

I don't think it should be less mp. This is five class three ships we are talking about!

[JaM]

5 cruisers: 5 x 60 = 300 mp
Plus this only jammed those ships, you need at least 5 cruisers (or any other ship capable of fighting) to destroy them.

That is the reason why I choose 250 mp first.

But you can see if you have a dreads fleet, this ship can be very useful, but against a flamingo + cruiser fleet it reduce its powers and the moles are easy points for the enemy. (I don't know if the battle-engine actually jams ships that cannot do anything but I assumed here that it does)

[Rubens]

i cant understand how the jams ship functioning, because u have a multi emp vessel and he have 4 destroyer u jam 3 destroyer but u lose -14 because u jam a ship but no destroy him, so this ship can be destroyed to easy only with a cruser

[darklim]

Jam the ship to make it impossible to destroy you ships
Interesting invention but more LP and MP
Like 0/150
Cost: 270 MP or more

@Rubens: You don't use jamming ships alone. And if you jam a ship you get back the initiative.

And it's easy to destroy this with a large cruiser fleet, but that is the weakness of this ship.

Will this be good for appollo cyclops fleets too?

this ship would be affected by the disable ship i think =)

[JaM]

Yes, it is useful agianst a apollo cyclops fleet too.

And if this ship is affected by the disable ship then there should be 4 more ships of the other 4 races be affected by the disable ship. (cyclops, apollo cruiser, dreadnought, shock-wave-cruiser)

[mackman]

I like it!Should make for more interesting combos for the game.

[darklim]

Change in the description:
Sabotage for Jam
LOL!!

And so what, I invented it, thus I named and described it.

[spacetrace]

it'S true there si no jamming ship for class 3, but i guess this one is too powerfull.

jamming 5 ships in a class that contains 10 - 20 ships is a lot . i guess it should have a major drawback. i will think of it

...

anyway a apollo fleet is easy destroyed by a cruiser fleet

[JaM]

Not only an apollo fleet

[mackman]

I still like the ship and hope that it can be put into the game.
