Nielk1's Idea Dumping Ground

[bigbadbogie]

Make a mine that does the opposite of the solar flare and instead freezes a ship partially as it drives over it, thereby reducing it's functionality.

Easy without DLL. Just use a flaremine with an EMP Lockdown style weapon.

Make a mine that does the opposite of the solar flare and instead freezes a ship partially as it drives over it, thereby reducing it's functionality. Another mine like the fountain that when dropped it changes the temperature with snow in proximity of the mine temporarily for use with your ships into areas that the snow machine has not been set up yet.

Actually the mine is a good idea. Right now most of this is ideas so go crazy! Discussions of how to do things are good too! Yes, BBB's way would work, and would likely be best in combination with a local temperature drop.

I've been looking into making a firestorm defense wall type object too.

Similar to that mine: a mine that emits a wide cold area effect, slowing vehicles to a crawl, serving a function similar to a mits mine.  I'm thinking of something with a wider area of effect than a flaremine, though

[TheJamsh]

flaremine could still do it.

Shot radius of the ordnance its shooting just needs to be bigger, anchor rockets might do it better though.

Either that or a well-tuned up magnet shield.

  I'd think the only real effect would be on speed, turning, friction, that sort of thing.

so i could be like the scion emp make it into a wave as in the scion sonic wave. you see where i am going?

Oooh, like a long lasting spraymine which constantly fires emp-lockdown type weapons? Teamfiltered would let the canadian forces pass through the field but enemy teams would be slowed down by it.

[Nielk1]

That would be the non DLL way.

If the DLL made things it hit cooler, Canadian units could drop them and use them to enhance their ships firepower when sitting on top of them.
