Fleet Buffs, AoE longrange infection abilities that target frigates, etc, etc

When you say the infection abilities target frigates, do you mean exclusively frigates? Or are ships under the "cruiser" classification able to be infected as well?

Frigate designator. Meaning cruisers as well. Unfortunately there's no way to differentiate

To soase there are only strikecraft, frigates, and capitals.

Thanks for the clarification; I saw the "frigate" wording and saw a great way to balance out the ability but I suppose that's a non-event

I love the idea of the flood being their own faction being that there was leadership roles throughout the flood in the games like gravemind but being that the flood already can take your whole fleet and use it against you, wouldnt you also want a weapon or unit with the sole purpose of destroying or containing the flood to certain planets something other then forerunner shield worlds and halos this would also add another stratigic factor to game play if the person or AI your were playing against slipspaced into one of these continuosly growing and contained flood worlds.

destroying the flood

ever heard of the Shiva Nuclear Missile?

What I ment was not destroying them but making them not able to slipspace to a planet with a structure that would stop them from doing so in other words containing the flood I wont be able to see how this wonderfull mod turns out since I head to basic june 17th but I want to give my support to this mod since it is something I have trully enjoyed I know the forerunners were always trying to contain them and to make it so the flood couldnt travel to certain destinations would make for a very stratigic ability other then just destroying them completly and to use the flood as a tool to destroy your enemy besides just paying them to attack someone more on the lines as then best defence is your greatest offense
