Wow someone's interested. I better actually do this now.
It's unfortunate that one weapon can't do multiple damage types, I was really hoping I could squeeze in a weapon like EnB's Singularity Mortar, which not only damages the target but also slows it down.
For a crude emulation of shield nova (unfortunately without the shield draining side effect) I was hoping to use a weapon akin to PDCs but targetting everything but seekers. (Incoming fire in EnB could not be dodged, shot down, or in any way prevented from hitting. This might be an insane balance issue under SE4 mechanics though. Traditional PDCs will probably make an appearance but they will not be so uber) However, Fyron informs me that as he recalls auto-targetting/auto-fire cannot be used on weapons which target ships, so that and Progen shield nova are out.
Another unfortunate note, I am not good with graphics, period end of story, so unless I find someone willing to help with that this mod won't be very visually impressive.
