Well, seen as we're talking about the construction, I left that open to table to see what you guys could think of. But yeah essentially:
-->Big assembly, but no bigger than tank transfer valve. I.e: It can be picked up, but cannot be put in a bag.
-->Requires stuff MOSTLY from mechanics. Would preferably use some new stuff in it.
-->Requires TIME to make. You ain't going to making this in a hurry, for sure.
-->Should be based on real life interpretations of E-bombs. Look in the interwebs. High Powered microwaves/ nuclear / flux compression related stuff would be interesting. Who says we have to stick to one? Why not combine them ALL?
So it's something that requires HIGH (I MEAN HIGH) power. Which is why I suggested that it works like a powersink, you have to screw it down to wire to activate it, although that sounds quite limiting now that I think about it.
I'm hesitant to including mining stuff in it like cerenkite (although very cool suggestion, the blue and nuclear stuff works, the EMP nades look like they're cerenkite powered) and Clarentine, although they could work just like pipebomb's, i.e: The inclusion of them makes for a stronger EMP blast.
Can Clarentine even be recycled from stuff on the station? If not it definitely should be.
I'd also prefer it used the NEW mechanic stuff, because I don't know how long the old will around for until it is removed outright.
