I thought of a cute weapons system that I call the Mandelbrot Shot:

1 Cyberspace Designs Dragonfly (Device 3) : subscribed to tacnet(1) : Sensor Test pool of 6 (2 hit average) :: 2,500nY
1 Repeater Drone (Device 3) : ((( subscribed to tacnet(1) : Sensor Test pool of 6 (2 hit average) :: 3,000NnY
1 Ares Heimdall (Device 3) ((( subscribed to tacnet(1), Repeater Drone, Cyberspace Designs Dragonfly ))) : Sensor Test pool of 6 (2 hit average) :: 1,500nY

Using the Indirect Fire rules for missiles, the Ares Heimdall will roll it's Pilot skill of 3, Sensors of 2, tacnet of 1, indirect fire bonus 2 (average) gives your rocket a pool of 8 all by itself. While not nearly as good as a rigged Heimdall, it makes for a fun trap. If you want to spend an extra 300nY you can give them all Custom Look(1) and make them look like something off of cuteoverload.com.

I sort of imagined having a crate of Heimdalls and a few Butterfly and Ladybug targeting systems. It reminds me of that really weird hidden Summon from FFX with the 3 cute insects.
