Subject: Re:FT SV
The dynamo joe comics also had something else that gave me an idea, called the leach generator. This pulled power out of any objet that it is in physical contact with. My idea for this is a pod, launched by a SV ship (like the biomass muncher pods by beth), except that it draws power from the ship, preventing certain actions (can apply thrust/no weapons fire/no sheilds, or no thrust, weapons ok, no sheilds etc), and when powered up, it detaches from the target, and heads towards a SV ship (say, any ship with a launch bay, or paracite pod), where the power absorbed can be fed into the ship for use. I`d say that this power can take a SV ship over the normal power points avalible, but when used, another pod must be absorbed. Mass/Cost/Comments anyone?
