Err, it's actually taken more from Star Wars than Conquest, hence the title of the post.
...and the cannon *would* need the enemy to be spotted. It wouldn't fire until it's side "saw" an enemy ship.

~Best thing I've heard to disagree with the idea.
~Anyway, this is the reason why I don't like this idea. With a lot of tweaking (and the including of very nice suggestions made by other players, in addition to the basic idea), I actually think it'd kinda be nice. However, the storyline is what attracts my attention the most. Maybe when the storyline becomes more evolved and Development moves some things around a bit more in Darkspace... and maybe when the war progresses more and stuff... then, well, the idea could work out. Until then... nice try.

i'm generally supportive of any idea that forces some tactics down the players throats, so this concept gets my vote.

it would be much easier to put a generator on the thing and have a special scout weapon which disables the generator thus the main gun.. which means dreads could then come in and capture or help destroy the gun

Uhh, So your basically describing a version of the Ion Cannon from Star Wars/ Ion Cannon from Command & Conquer? That would be awsome to have a thing like this...
