Idea for a new weapon mod

The EarthSharker missile - It fires a single Earthshaker-type missile that explodes in a huge radius, and releases 12 bomblets that home in on enemies, and when each of them hits, they create a Black Shark missile vortex.

Would it be possible to make it?

Not sure if it's possible but it sounds like the Smart Missile with the Black Shark vortex at the end.

It is possible, but it might crash the game from too many of the black shark particle effects.

I experimented with something like this when working on Basewars (see the Doom Vulture missile). In the end I found it crashes the game too much and doesn't really have the desired effect. It can be done though.

Sounds like the most OP thing in the history of ever.

Speaking of OP - do you think the Black Shark actually does more damage than the Earthshaker? I don't see any single robot surviving a face shaker with no other robots nearby to draw the child bomblets away.
