| Summary | 0009474: Give the Devourer contracting tractor beams instead of insta-death attacks | ||||
| Description | When I first met the Devourer, I was a little disappointed that it was just firing insta-death attacks and kinda acted like a Cursed Golem. As a purely aesthetic change, it would be amazing if it used tractor beams instead, and ships it grabbed were pulled into it where they died. I could see this being a quick process, maybe taking just a few seconds. I could see it either ignoring tractor beam immunity, or allowing that to remain just to give some ship types an advantage. | ||||

Given the insperation for the Devourer, Unicron, is more famous for swallowing things whole and eatting planets than spaming instant death weapons, this change seems to make a lot of sense themeatically. Even the name of the golem, "Devourer", seems to imply that it should be eating ships rather than just blowing everything in its path. |
