New ship class/sub class

[Midget_Topaz]

I've designed a new class of ship/ sub class called the Ram Tank.
The only thing that makes it similar to the normal tank is its strong armour.
It has 4 new ability's to replace the tanks normal ability's, they are:-
Bombard Cannon - Fires 3-5 small explosive's at the enemy ship, Smaller explosions than a tanks agrrobomb but still as powerful.

Ram Attack - The ship accelerates and crashes into the enemy ship at high speed (can only be used on a target and not as a 2nd afterburner.

Mines - Drops a small mine that charges up over a few seconds and then explodes (does alot of damage but has a small range.

Charged Hull - For use before using the ram attack, the hull of the ship charges up with energy and when the ship collides with the enemy ship it discharges causing greater damage.

The ship isent much to look at, but after crashing into mantis ships it can only be expected :mrorange: . Let me know what you think and any ideas about the design or the tech is very welcome

I've now designed another new class/sub class of ship, a new engineer that specializes in energy.
It similar to the engineer as it is a small ship and is fast. But also still has weak armour.
As it specializes in energy it has equipment that deals with energy, they are:-
Energy Field Collector - This allows the ship to collect more than one energy orb at one time and is the fastest way to collect energy.

Energy transfer- The energy engineer uses this to supply allied ships with energy in combat and can also be used as a weapon against enemy's by overloading them with energy.

Blaster repel Field - This acts as a shield against blasters as it is charged in a certain way that blaster fire is repelled away from the ship so the field cannot be damaged like a normal shield. But this only works for blasters and no other weapon.

Energy drain - This technology literally drains the energy from the enemy ship to the engineer, this slows down a mantis's ship and depletes a enemy pilots supply of energy.

I've tried to be as original as possible with this ship and tried to keep it balanced as it has a very desirable piece of technology that collect energy very fast. lemme know what you think .
