Subject: Missile Defense for stations
Jumping into the debate about station defense, why not add a new type of
mine - Anti-missile defense pods. Each pod is a self-contained ADAF.
Seed as many as needed to provide a layer of anti-missile protection for
areas not covered by nova cannon. This provides a delay to missile
forces
as they have to sweep the missile defenses first then launch. This
would
allow defending ships time to intercept and possibly prevent them from
launching. Or alternatively you could make each mine a one use NOVA
bomb
with a 6" 2d6 template with sensor or command detonation. This would
allow for fairly cheap seeding of a minefield, provide excellent
one-shot
anti-missile/ship defense.
Some ideas,
