    The effect I'm proposing is in home maps for the emp to disrupt drone formations as well for attacking enemy.
    Impose a cool down for all of the enemy's drone formations when the emp is discharged. The enemy's drone formations cool down should be equal to the cool down of the emp.

  2. Has a chance of being over powered. Losing the lock as well as getting your formation reset to basic? AND for the duration of the EMP? Ouch.

    How about having the EMP set to some mode? It could be a clickable option on the EMP button or something: Either disrupt their formation, or remove lock.

    And as for the "...enemy drone formation cool down should be equal to the cool down of the emp," just have it set as the normal cooldown as if you changed your formation. Most people run defensive type formation (+HP/+Shields), so if it got reset and then attacked, the bonus won't be reapplied since they can't regenerate back the bonus when they switch it again.

    Overall, I find this a splendid idea. Great way to combat the pesky Ring formation or even Drill :D

    Well yea, considering this function is available on home maps against enemy ships only. "resetting drone formations" The effects and imposed cool down is not too harsh.
     
  4. Ahhh, only home maps, then yea, idea's good :D
