Guess who could of invented this one?

The human counterpart to the "Cloud Cruiser". It counters its ability and alternative gives the ability to make C3 non-reconstructable, all with an appropriate name! I couldnt really justify how exactly it would improve the enemies firepower, but if others think so, maybe it should. Its lower manpower, but it has no AP unlike the Cloud.

Random fact: Zeus was, amongst other things, referred to as "Cloudgatherer" in Homers The Illiad.

I like that one, but I would suggest 60 mp, then I'd give it a go

Oo This is in the "All existing Technologies" thread.. Do you mean to tell me I can find my namesake ship out there somewhere?
I will have to eat my own words.
Taking out the sig from my post since it made it to this thread, but maybe I dont have to? This could be some cruel admin prank, perhaps? Or a screwy forum bug? Hmm or maybe its just up for comission, pending the polls?

its not in the game yet, strange, how did it move to the existing tec forum? i'll move it back to inventions...

from your description it seems, there is a battlesyntax missing: did you intend it to do something to the enemy fleet class3 ships too?

Ah that was a cruel cruel joke admin. I was right to be skeptical.

Its intended to act like to opposite of the cloud cruiser.. Except it has no AP and doesnt effect both fleets. I could have missed something though.

sry, i didnt mean to offend you. it was no joke, seems more like a bug in the inventions routine.

this ship has to be discussed here and if it is good, we will move it to possible new inventions.
