New Defensive Buff tool

Saull:
How about an ammo type that works like heat sink. Makes the gun mostly unusable, maybe locking it into place, in exchange for extra health and/or damage reduction

This! Extra health weapon ammo type! Or protection. Or whatever.

The idea was to protect other parts too such as engines. And we don't want to end up with a situation like the one before fire was nerfed hard. Where heatsink was a necessity if they had any flame weapons.

Saull:
And I can appreciate the need to further protect the engines. The squid and goldfish certainly could use it but this secondary buff kit looks to me like another reason to bring that third or even fourth engineer. Using an ammo type would probably be more situational, like for a charge, and have more give and take then an engie tool. Also, as far as engine vulnerability goes, with reduced damage coming in on those fortified guns a gunner would be better equipped to handle any repairs by himself thus freeing the secondary engineer to address other components. That was at least the idea.

I would also think that if a fortifying ammo type or engie tool were to exist the goldfish would probably get the most mileage out of their use.

Spud Nick:
I like the idea of a ammo type that would give the gun more HP. This could be very useful for ships like the Galleon and Goldfish were gun disables are very common. However, disabling is a big part of the game and I don't want to see it nerfed to much.
