first idea was a npc that when killed spawns into 2-3 other small ships but then i thought it might be more fun if hitting a boss had a random chance of launching a fighter/drone not ment to be that hard just an change from the norm..

Attack fighter (manned)
attack: 500 (small ship, little guns)
defence: 1500 (much higher def to simulate speed/smaller)
hull: 2000
shields: 200 (not much decks for shields)
expires in: 2hours? 4 hours? 8 hours?
drops: i dont know? something new? new type of badge?

Battle drone (unmanned)
attack: 1000
defence: 2000
hull: 3000
shields: 800 (no life support so more power!)
expires in: never? 24hours? (unmanned no need for sleep!)
drops: same?

i like the idea of bosses that spawn other NPCs that give drops. dark megacomplexes already have the 'fighter drone' ability. i think. anyway, +1 for the idea. as for the stats, let dan decide if he wants to put em in, as it dosnt look like you thought through all the details...

nope i didnt think of the details much thats why theres alot of ?'s and ( )'s saying why it was high/low
