Continuation of someone else's Blog on Command Destroyers

I was just reading Target Callers Blog about the new Command Destroyers http://targetcaller.blogspot.com/2015/11/pontifex-stork-magus-bifrost.html#comment-form

From this point forward to be known as "CoDestro(s)"

And some crazy things popped in my head .. first I'm really curious what the range of these mobile micro jump units are? also what is the spool up time?

Ganking, anti-ganking, and gate camping could all be greatly affected if they operate how I imagine they do.  Imagine your in your *insert ship name here* and you drop on a gate bout to leave system when a well timed spool up sends you off 100km away from your gate in the direction you were travelling from right into a nest of scramming, webbing, beasts of war. Bad Day.

Imagine your flying your trying to gank that juicy freighter that your bumping off his warp trajectory and your catalyst buddies finally arrive and just before you open fire to alpha this guy into loot land, the white knight in his CoDestro unleashes his 100km scatter grenade of doom off flys the freighter as your bumper rushes to rebump him.

And last but not least the reason I'm curious about range .. how close do you have to be to micro jump someones ship out of their POS? that would suck eh? Kamikaze CoDestro pilot warped my *insert expensive named ship here* out of my POS and now it's a killmail .. f'my life

And a great strat I could imagine being used in warfare would be have a sniper gang and just "fling" all those pesky scram, brawling, soon to be dead boats out 100km and watch them try re-approaching as you and your arties blast them to smithereens.

Keep a cloaky CoDestro on hand in case things get bad and the Blops lands .. bam everyone is nice and scattered and well on their way to someplace warm and safe . sorry Blops not today!

Just some thoughts .. the range of the effect and spool up time could be a big deal to come. More interesting uses to come I'm sure .. oh what about jump freighters just before they dock up on station .. ohhh that sounds nefarious.

Thanks for giving me something fun to right about today Target Caller. sorry for commenting three times in a row like a spaz lol
