Summary0001877: Bonus Immunities for fleet ships with low ship caps
DescriptionI'm playing against an AI that's using zenith paralyzers (this AI got some nice draws for bonus ships - zenith paralyzers and ff-gens - I'm a little annoyed with it right now :P ). My bonus ship is the spire stealth battleship. My problem is that my stealth battleships can be put out of commission really quickly by a handful of paralyzers. As you can imagine, this is quite annoying, and since they have such a low ship cap a very small number of paralyzers can negate a huge portion of my fleet's damage. Some of the other spirecraft with low ship caps probably have similar issues.

I would like to see stealth battleships have paralysis immunity. I've noticed that they're also not immune to tractors, and I think they should be immune to those as well (though they can probably blow most things that would tractor them easily enough anyways). I can't comment on other large spire fleet ships with low ship caps, but I suspect similar immunities may be in order.

AI guardians should probably be immune too, or at least most of them. It's ridiculous and one of the reasons paralyzers are so good.

AI carriers aren't immune, but I think they should stay unimmune like the ships they contain so you don't end up with thousands of bombers next to your forcefields and paralyzers can keep this tactical play to work as a counter-counterpost, since counterpost waves tend to have many carriers.

Good point:

* All guardians are now immune to paralysis attacks, as are carriers now.

* All spire bonus ship types, and the zenith electric bombers and sentinel frigates, are all now immune to paralysis attacks.
