GM Week – Item Description Contest!

The Prophecy: A ship made for combat as a Battleship but fits more of a role of a Battle Cruiser. The Amarr ship is “fat” on the back of the ship but the front is designed from the Amarrian Gold Eagle with a strong beak and powerful wings. It was to be used as an Artillery piece but Amarr pilots used it like the Amarr Gold Eagle, using its Children to attack prey in numbers as the Prophecy uses drones.

The Beauty and power of the Amarr Gold Eagle, ancient and powerful, will always live on with the Prophecy Battle Cruiser

For all Torpedoes:

“Torpedo’s are just testosterone in missile form. Some say you don’t destroy ships with them, you’re actually turning boys into men, which causes them to emerge from their ships as a new person.”

Please excuse the memes. Or don’t!

Caldari Navy Inferno Torpedo:

Most capsuleers know this plasma torpedo has been greatly improved beyond its base model and made available for commercial sale by the Caldari Navy. But only a few pilots are aware that a second, high-volume production line is reserved for private contract to a questionable consortium of “torpedo delivery” professionals. At this time, the Caldari Navy has yet to comment on why such a license has been granted, at what price it was secured, and whether or not the purchasing agents even really deliver munitions in the traditional sense.

Thukker Large Cap Battery:

Increases capacitor storage. Provides defense against energy-neutralizing and siphoning effects. When double-fit to a Stratios-class cruiser, this module can render the vessel immune to poorly-coordinated attacks by up to 8 attacking pilots at one time. Always install with opposing positive-negative heads aligned. Recycle when exhausted.

Capital Memetic Algorithm Bank II:
It is said that in the millennia before the Eve Gate collapsed, computational strength was inversely correlated to computer size. But as today’s capsuleers know, bigger is better. This colossal rig, the size of a small planetary colony, provides a capital-sized ship with the staggering computational power to plow through puny databanks with 40% more hacking power. Batteries not included.

Upwell Palatine Keepstar:
They said it couldn’t be built. That it shouldn’t be built. That doing so would bankrupt the galaxy, plunge all of humanity into a millennium-long recession, starving capsuleer and mortal alike. That such a testament to greed, ego, and empty boasting would mark the end times as prophesied in every major galactic religion. And if you are reading this description from the walls of a Palatine Keepstar, they were right.

If this unholy structure exists, and it is within your power to unmake it, do so. Remove this stain of vanity and opulence from space, from history, and from existence. Tear down its gaudy appearance with whatever weapon suits you. And see to it this distasteful testament to hubris is never constructed again.

My contribution:

Vexor Navy Issue

The former Vexor Navy Issue had been the true workhorse of capsuleer empires in the New Eden Cluster, But among the outlaws and exiles, the ship was responsible for the demise of millions.

The latest iteration of the Vexor Navy Issue favors an aggressive deployment. It packs more powergrid, processing power, and a nanoorganism-based membrane that improves matter reconstruction efficiency, but at the expense of drone bandwith. Capsuleers protest that had the engineers been given more time, its former Automated For Krabbing (AFK) module could have been saved.

ORE Strip Miner

A bulk ore extractor designed for use on Mining Barges and Exhumers. ORE, leveraging their monoploy on mining technology, managed to squeeze out slightly more optimal performance from these modules, justifying the 660% increase in ISK price over the standard module.

I don’t necessarily aim to win the contest, but I would be nice to have my item updated to reflect these newly announced facts :smiley:

 

Chribba’s Modified Strip Miner

Jury rigged with duct tape and a laser pointer, even Outer Ring Excavations are bewildered by this module’s ability to chew through so much ore per hour.

<showinfo:1373//196379789>Chribba</> himself explained the secrets to its powers during a private meeting with Outer Ring Excavations CEO Afait Assette.

Utilizing a glitch in the antimatter reactor of The Veldnaught allows this module to reroute nano-current from the power grid increasing its yield beyond imagination.

Astronautic Engineering Skill

Derived from the French ‘astronautique’ which is used to describe the theory and practice of travel beyond the atmosphere of a planet called Earth. With loss of access to the Milky Way galaxy and the planet Earth the demand by pilots for this skill plummeted. Due to a lack of demand this skill book was withdrawn from circulation.

MTU (Mobile Tractor Unit) - current description
The mobile tractoring unit takes some of the work out of looting the scorched ruins left by capsuleers, be it pulverized asteroids, wrecked ships, or obliterated inhabitation modules of various kinds. Once it has been deployed and completed its automatic activation process, it will lock on to any containers or wrecks within range, reel them in one by one, and empty their contents into its own cargo bay. All the capsuleer needs to do is keep up the pace of destruction.

125km effective range.
10 second activation time.

May not be deployed within 5km of another Mobile Tractor Unit, within 50km of Stargates, Stations or Upwell Structures, or within 40km of a Starbase.
Automatically decays if abandoned for two days.


MTU (Mobile Tractor Unit) - proposed description
Deploy a MTU after a battle and it will tractor as well as loot wrecks/containers automatically and store them in its own cargo bay for your collection. The MTU’s tractor range is 125km from its deployed location. As such this item is viewed by many pilots as an essential accessory for any combat mission or fleet that requires large-scale post-combat looting.

Once looting is complete you may scoop both the MTU (re-usable) and its collected loot back into your ship’s cargo bay. The MTU requires 100 m3 of cargo space to transport, its capacity for loot storage is 27000 m3 and allowance should be made in terms of cargo space for transporting the loot collected by the MTU.

Restrictions: may not be deployed within 5km of another MTU, within 50km of Stargates, Stations or Upwell Structures, or within 40km of a Starbase. It has 50000 hitpoints but, unlike the Mobile Depot, it does not enter reinforced mode and can be immediately destroyed. CONCORD will not intervene on behalf of an MTUs destruction. MTUs automatically decay if abandoned for two days. Note: MTUS do not salvage.

30270_64 YAN JUNG THUNDER KITE : New Description

This specific Yan Jung component may have found application in the tech of both the Drifters and the Triglavian Collective; reflecting these usages of this ancient specialization in the item’s description would be a thought-provoking addition to the very limited knowledge we have on the practical application of the Yan Jung Kingdom’s areas of expertise. Description:

A vital component in ancient Yan Jung designs.

Thunder Kites take the form of multi-rod arrays, capable of interacting directly with local spacetime in order to produce and exert force across a “skirt” formed between active rods.

Both the Drifters and Triglavian Collective seem to have made ample use of this technology in their respective designs, albeit for far different purposes; the Drifters utilize Thunder Kites for navigation, achieving unmatched vessel agility and turret control, while the Collective has applied the same principles in the containment and harnessed acceleration of the isogen-criticality cradles that fuel their vessels.


precskil PRECURSOR SKILLBOOKS : New Descriptions

These skillbooks are intended to be used for future shiplines beyond just the Trigs, so there should be a fitting explanation as to how that’d be possible. New description for each (specialization skills are exampt, as they are specific to their weapon type). Description:

(Ship Skills: Skill at operating Precursor (insert ship).)
(Weapon Skills: Operation of (size) precursor weapons. 5% Bonus to (size) precursor weapon damage per level.)

Compiled by the Triglavian Collective as an extra-cladeflowal dissemination of the principles guiding their technology, “Precursor” skill packages reference a vast index of ancillary data spanning a far-deeper knowledge base than is applied in the operation of contemporary Triglavian tech. Though most of this information has proven impossible to isolate without a more thorough understanding of the methods used to compile it, what little that has been gleaned can be matched to scattered technical records of numerous bygone civilizations.

While the vast majority of these fragments can be linked to recovered pre-Directorate Jove records, a significant number trace far more esoteric parallels - numbering meaningfully among the cryptic Yan Jung and Talocan civilizations. Vexingly, even the far-younger Takmahl are represented in this index, raising many questions as to the true historical role of the Triglav.

EXTRA: Each skillbook could also have a different triglavian data entry attached after this general description, fleshing out some background and adding further mysteries. Here are a few versions I cooked up for fun:

I would like a special fitting that will fit on a fortizar and above , and it needs skills,
the fitting will open a local chat window , only within the system it resides.

I had this idea a couple of years back , and that is to have a system close to the newbee systems , frankly for the newbees , and it holds within it a 200km bubble for t1 only fleet duels the warpgate will only let in a set amount of t1 lets say 5 frigates t1 both warpgates activate the same time , the battle begins any exit will lock you out of bubble and center becon drops prizes for last fleet standing.

Shuttle description:

Used as a thin layer of defense for your already vulnerable capsule, these shuttles can be seen darting around between jump gates and stations all over new eden.
Incredibly cheap and expendable, these small vessels can still prove invaluable when attacked, due to their tiny signature radius and align time.
