Inspired by the New Insurance function thread.
I would be cool if there was one use items that allowed you to call in some ships for more firepower. A station could sell lots of kinds of them. (would you buy a faster ships (helpful farther away from the gate) or more powerful ships (to help attack) or even another choice a type of ship that is all defenses (makes a great decoy)
There also could be beacons that attract enemy or friendly ships. To lure them away from a spot or to make them fight each other or to split up forces so they can be taken out easier.
A beacon that constantly calls reinforcements to it. This could be used in Charon (enemy drops many right near the station) and you have to scramble to kill them but you can't just focus on them due to it would allow the ships already there free rain.
Crying is not a proper retort!

The only thing I suggest is that a beacon only attracts a certain number of ships (between 6 and 12).
