Re: Invasion! Mod Discussion Beta 0.40
 

Are you going to restrict orbital bombardment in this mod?

Re: Invasion! Mod Discussion Beta 0.40
 

That was a consideration when I started restricting what could shoot at fighters but I decided to not restrict orbital bombardment on the following ideas:

1. We have lasers right now that can hit things from hundreds of miles away imagine what they could have in the future. So the arguement that the atmosphere would prevent energy weapons from being used against the planet from a place in orbit because of atmosphereic distortion is flawed

2. This is geeky but think back to ST:TNG in a few episoids the Enterprise used its phasers to attack something on the planet.

If there is something I missed and did not cover or I missed the whole meaning of your question please say so.
