Predictions for the 'Game Changing' Ship?

[Blind Owl]

Edit- Oh yea, forgot to actually post. A ship that can interdict QDrive capabilities would make the most sense. I am not saying like in EVE with heavy vs. lighter interdiction systems, but a dedicated ship class like out of Star Wars Empire At War would be a pretty cool concept for it.

Scale it down for SC, thinking say a ship the size of a Tali/Connie which has to become immobile when active and creates a brilliant pattern of energy pulses that disable both friendly and enemy QDrives in range. It is armor tanky, but it has to lower shields to go all QDrive stopping and if takes too much damage pulses deharmonize or something doing AOE damage randomly to everyone while the ship itself disintegrates quickly... all crew die on a one way ticket. Fully commit and high risk to use ship to gain a massive tactical advantage.

I like your mind

Sorry, I'm too lazy to read all ideas, but mine is obvious and most probably was already mentioned - "flying game currency printing factory" that is not capable of any kind of jumps :)

but of course is indestructable

That's worth 5K alone. The ship would just be gravy. I'm in. "Honey, can we get a second mortgage? All the guys are getting one."

Actually I believe we all overcomplicate things ... game changing ship is exactly what it is called - game changing ship - it recompiles the code on the server as it flies.

Maybe the game changing ship is one that destroys wallets even faster?

After pondering over ships for a while, I think I have another ship type that could work to provide a service that isn't really addressed yet. Basically while we have ships with tractor beams and the space garage Crucible, we don't have a dedicated Tug Boat that can lug your disabled ship back to safety, with a long term locking device that can lock on to your ship and tow it efficiently. Also important if you want to salvage broken ships that are still more or less intact.
Imagine sitting in deep space, with all engines fried. Who you gonna call to get you and your ship back home?

i predict it will be a lawnmower, garden tractor type.
With a supercharged engine and straight pipe exhaust.

There's a special place in hell for people who supercharge tractors

Good thought. I like it.

Game changer? It can only be the Gold Saucer... in space. Mini games? They're in it. Gladiator matches? Yep. Gambling? Of course. It's even got fking chocobo races...

Honestly though, I would love to see a casino ship. Sign me up and take my money.
