Summary0011389: Some kind of high cap ship with high range
DescriptionSomething I have noticed that is lacking from the high ship cap selection is something with a high or high-ish range. Laser gattling comes closest, but I would classify that as more of a mid range.

How about introducing one?

Can someone who is more creative than me come up with a good name for these things?

First thought that comes to mind:

Sniper Laser Pods
Laser Ammo with long range, or possibly Sniper Range
Has 4 shots and hits really hard, but is Self-Damaging so it destroys itself in one shot. Does not auto-target; you need to manually target.

Basically, this is a ranged version of Autobombs. Obviously less damaging since delivery is much easier, and probably has a higher resource cost and build time.

I think "Micro-snipers" would be a fine name.

I like the sniper pod idea. However, it would be nice if their self damage wasn't so high that they oneshot themselves. Attack power could go down and/or cost could go up a bit in return.
