"Today, an Ukra-Tal invasion fleet was destroyed when a huge container of shoes smashed into their battlefleet. The shoes were bound for Uranus, but with a mass of 900 kilotons and moving at 600k mph, the shoes hit the fleet with a force great enough to smash every ship in the Ukra-Tal fleet. The shoes were undamaged."

How embarassing would that be?

Dang that would be uber embarassing. But the Mass Drivers, are you refering to Stars? That used technology that "flung" packets of supplys from planet to planet. If not Stars then I don't know which game it would be.
