I introduce to you,

The fear under the methanoids, The Plaque for Human Pirates...

TaDam TaDam Tadaaa:

The Mantis Rage Beacon,

I really tought about the name (1 minute ^^ ) and came to the sollution that an Attack Turret shouldn't be named like that and whats a better name for an attack charge? Rage! It gets the mantis angry and charges them up. And ofcourse to not take the boring name of Turret, Beacon sounds much cooler.

So, guess what it does?

It makes mantis aggresive and gives them a attack charge,

So further info is here in a list:

* Only in draconis as a replacement for the Attack Field rare that drops from Saboteurs,
* Ressurectors and all other mantis that got aggresive in draconis become neutral,
* These Neutrals will get angry if in the field of the Rage Beacon.
* Aggrobeacon will drop from these instead of dropping from interceptors.
* Range will be that from an Aggrobeacon or a little bit further, but not as big as a players attack turrets range,
* As i have always said, why making rare blueprints of the Sniper Blaster in sol etc. if you can let them drop from a normal enemy that actually doesn't drop anything... So now these will drop as normals too as:
** Sniper Blasters (only moon and earth) from Imp Signors
** Attack Droid (only moon and earth) from Imp Attack Droids and Imp Repair Turrets
** Orbital Strike (only moon and earth) from Imp Signors
** Attack Charge (only moon and earth) from Imp Attack Droids (maybe detonators)
** Repair Turret from Mantis Mender
** Attack Turret from Mantis Rage Beacon
** Sticky Bomb from Mantis Saboteur
** Minelayer from Mantis Minelayer
* These Beacons will have less health then the other turrets.
* These Beacons will spawn in certain areas that I would like to call Doom Fields, there will be 4-5 beacons at a time covering big fields.
* Mantis Minelayers will now spawn by two at a field, but will only drop 4 mines on a field and will have the health of a marauder.

So, I hope you like this mantis and the fixes that I made.

Description:

This beacon makes the most neutral mantis filled with fury when an enemy passes by. This beacon makes the most dangerous mantis even more dangerous. Don't wait, And destroy it before it makes even Methanoids furious!

I added the name fixes to it as it's more of both a list of fixes and the mantis rage beacon.

I feel like I should add a model, but there are nearly no mantis turret thingies where I can use things out of.
