New feature: New battle droid types for new fleets #10

Open jsno8192 opened 3 years ago

For a future version and new fleets (This new feature does not affect original Nighthawk fleet):

Create a few new droids. Some ideas:

An interrupter "boomer" droid (like in the original game)

A 8xx type with a weapon that causes droids to shoot out at each other.

What about a droid that can use elevators? This could be really hard to outrun, and means you can only really kill it or transfer to it. I don't know which number category to put this in, given its power I'd suggest perhaps a 9xx droid.

Yep, good idea ! :)

Also, what about one that is invisible for x seconds, then it self destructs ?

Regarding your elevator droid suggestion, you could give it a low power laser or weak shields if the playability of the ship becomes too difficult.
