Summary0001264: "Spirecraft" idea: Spire Cannibal
DescriptionLook: Disheveled, spherical heap of guns and garbage.

Rough Stats:
Range: 9000
Attack: 6,000 x1
Reload Speed: 5

Description:
For every 20 enemy ships killed within 9000 range: gains 1 extra attack up to a maximum of 60. Loses 1 extra attack every 6 seconds.

Speed: 44
HP: Low
Armor: Moderate

The idea is for this to be a fragile, fairly agile glass cannon unit that needs to constantly be on the offensive to be effective, and requires good micro and a supporting fleet to stay alive.

Couple more things:

The name doesn't really make a lot of sense, but it seemed a little snappier than "Spire Garbage Collector" or something like.

Also its attack should ramp up a LOT slower. I was aiming for about 1,000 killed ships equaling a full charge, but something like 10,000 would probably be more appropriate so that it doesn't tear through CPAs like a bag of leaves.

Out of scope for the moment, but marking for consideration in future DLC or expansions.
