Neinzul colony core guard post.

Build up points, and when triggered, a lot of Mk. V Neinzul ships are spawned.
Would have a max buildup and possibly faster buildup rate than the Mk. V AI neinzul colony.
(Note, I am talking about class pf Neinzul spawnwers that spawn "normal" Neinzul bonus ships, not the viral ones or the special purpose bomber ones)

Also, for versions of the Neinzul viral cluster and bomber clusters would work too, with similar comparisons as above.

Being a Neinzul regen chamber as well may be a good idea, if the AI learns how to use these properly.

EDIT: Relevant jira issues with AI and regen chambers
9102: AI Neinzul regen chamber causes really stupid behavior
11437: AI rarely, if ever, uses Neinzul Regeneration Chambers


There are also a ton of regen chamber usability improvement ideas. Just search for "chamber" on mantis.

That could be fun.

It's firing follows AI Carrier logic, in that as the number of younglings increase, its own rate of fire increases.

Making youngling inside the chamber more dangerous then outside of it!
Life is short. Have fun.

It's been a while since I've seen the Ravenous Shadow, but are the stats of any value to turn into a brutal guard post? A Ravenous Host.
