Default Re: A new Mod Idea (Look Here For Enlightenment)

Ok, running the risk of showing myself to be a total geek...

In ST the Federation could not detect cloaking devices except when using large sensor arrays. The arrays were placed along the boarder and were (presumably) immobile. They did not necesarily do damage to the invading ships, though a mine field is not inconceivable.

The equivalent as I see it would be to have very large sensor packages that could be based on either satelites or star bases. In this way federation ships can't go hunting for the cloaked ships... just as they couldn't in the series.
