Ooooh, fantastic idea, Ed! This would be a fun thing to play with.

/agitate on/ Hey! We want a "weapons destroyed on use" ability in SE5! Pretty please?!? /agitate off/

Another thing to add to the SE5 wishlist or perhaps SE4 Version 2.

'Weapons destroyed on use...'

Heck I would be happy if they add one shot, or weapons that would run out of ammo. Then you would have to either stock ammo for them, or reload them somehow...

Mainly a good idea for fighters and such. Launch big missile at target...return to carrier and rearm....

I don't think I have room in my designs for reactive armor. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

About "weapon destroyed on use" - isn't it the same as "one shot gun", ie, weapon with reload rate of 30?

Except that in this case, you need a repair ship before you can fire again.

Its more than just 30 combat turn reload its "at least one month, maybe more" reload
