Default Re: Computer combat Q

Let's see....

MC3 + Bridge + CQ + LS = 5,500 min, 1,100 Org, 1,000 Rad and 50 kilotons

Bridge + CQx5 + LSx5 = 5,500 min, 500 Org, 0 Rad and 60 kilotons

What, then, is the reason for using the Master Computer at all?

Either you are vulnerable to the Virus or you gain only 10 kilotons for the cost of 600 Org (no reall issue) and 1,000 Rad. I don't see how this is worthwhile.

Wait, I do see one small advantage. Leaving out the Bridge and whatnot, you can get a cheaper 'empty' hull, for retro-series startups.

If this is not worthwhile on a baseship I'm not sure it would be worthwhile anywhere.

Of course, there is the AC...

[edit: found an error. That should be like this.

Bridge + CQx5 + LSx5 = 5,500 min, 500 Org, 0 Rad and 110 kilotons

So you get 60 kilotons for the cost of 600 Org and 1,000 Rad, which isn't quite so bad.]
