My dad suggested recording cicadas and using them as a sound effect in a sci-fi game...
So I present for your enjoyment, the Cicada Beam!

So, now you can bug them to death?

That's a fun weapon! Great for organic races.

Cost Minerals := 0Cost Organics := 300 Cost Radioactives := 100

Ummm, Every third Cicada is RADIOACTIVE?

And: Weapon Reload Rate := 1

Shouldn't that be: Weapon Reload Rate := 17

Not just radioactive...RADIOACTIVE CICADA'S OF DOOM!
