In tie fighter u could get space bombs. They did a lot of damage, but just flew straight after they were launched.

I think a bomb that just kept going straight at the same speed as when it was dropped. And, it would be targetable.

But big damage.

Thoughts?

Seems to me to be too easy to avoid, unless your shooting at Huge ships. In that case wouldn't the fighters just shoot them down before they reach their target? Seems to me that the closest approximation your going to get in this game is "Deathrain" with Proton Bombs.

Rather than moving, a bomb type that deploys with a 5-straight forward, detonating on first ship in path?

Basically an inverse of the mine collision method, where the bomb's template is the one that counts for overlap, not the ship's.

**** the torpedoes....full speed ahead!

So if Torpedoes actually functioned as Torpedoes?

I'm in.

would love the concept

good room for future design space

Well, as far as the lore is concerned, Proton Bombs are Space Bombs.

Well, that would make them accurate to the games. In fact, even some capital ships could outrun space bombs.
