Default Re: Weapon of coice for glassing a homeworld?

ah, i have not seen a question like this since the older days of the forum. when we had topics like 'whats the worst atrocity you have perpitrated?'

im sure the sci-fi canon (not cannon) would be an effective anti-planet device. if you have the time, you could always blow up the local star, or park a ship with techtonic bombs in orbit for a turn.

if the planet is well defended and you need a sucker punch, you could always send in planetary napalm. or you could send in a plague ship. even if there are strong defenses, one hit will do the job. if you send 2 or 3 escorts with plague bombs, one should get through. you will have to wait a while, but odds are his happyness will go to heck, and it will buy you time to come back with real weapons and take care of his defenses.

how do break the defenses depend on what they are. ships? bases? weapons plats?
