I could not find this suggestion in the forums by searching "Anonymity" or "Anonymous", but something tells me this HAS to have ran through the developers heads at one time or another.

What do you all think about some sort of mechanic that hides the ruler and planet name of your fleet(s) so that attacks can be launched anonymously? Brainstorming about it, I feel it has several potential uses and interesting strategies that it could be applied to. Perhaps it could have something to do with Chrono-Matter, adding to it's usefulness as a "commodity". If every one feels it an intriguing concept, I am confident we could balance it out and apply it to the game. (Assuming you developers like it enough to put in the effort of coding it)

Perhaps already existing cloaking ships should also hide the user's name? I, personally, don't feel that is too much to ask. It would slightly add to the appeal of cloaking, but as a balancer, with a little bit of effort looking into other player's battlereports, you would be able to uncover the anonymous attacker.

Otherwise, I will create the "Anonymizer" ship, or something like that, to do the job. I was thinking that, if it was a ship, it should probably be available to every race; although, if only one race was to get it, it would realistically go to E-Ray.
