Summary | 0009267: Neinzul Amalgamation | ||||
Description | A mismatched collection of younglings, melded into a monstrosity. The Amalgamation is held together by a strong structural integrity field, and fires energy blasts that zombify enemy attackers. When the SI Field is weakened sufficiently, the Amalgamation explodes into a small horde of Mature Nienzul Reclaimers. The reclaimer is an AI evolution of the Nanoswarm Youngling. Stronger and more durable. Could be made into a brutal AI unit, complete with a structure for the AI Homeworld. Limit one Amalgamation per AI. If destroyed the structure starts building a new one. The Amalgamation would patrol no more than 3 hops from the HW its structure was on. Advanced Hybrids could "antagonize" the unit by placing a signal that mimics it's structure withing 3 hops of a human planet. | ||||

Despite not liking the work amalgamation, I like this idea |
|
Yea, instead we could just call it "Neinzul Monstrosity" and cut to the chase ;) |
|
Naming issue aside, the idea is to give a challenge (?) that isn't in the game. Being shielded you need a bomber type and I believe the nanos are CC so fighters. going to need a counter for fighters and bombers because the beast is going to zombie your ships first... then reclaim the rest... so your going to be fighting a battle of attrition (in numbers) or... you starship it to death. If it is a brutal pick you can make it sufficiently nasty ;) Actually the idea comes from a real life experience :P My grandmother smashed a wolf spider that was in her kitchen. It happened to be carrying lots of spiderlings. Those little spiderlings scattered everywhere lol. Very funny at the time. |
