SFTC

[Randallw]

I shall go check, but it is a space based weapon. Converted freighters sit in orbit, and when the bugs show themselves they launch a missile from orbit. It looks like a fictional laser beam. A blazing line that blasts though the atmosphere and then annihilates the target.

KISS: Kinetic Interdiction Strike System.
Upscale of the HVM, Hypervelocity Missile, a Kinetic missile propelled by a small drive coil. Projectiles are emplaced in space and then the drive coils activated going instantaneously to just under a tenth of light speed (c). Each strike releases the energy of a tactical nuclear warhead but precisely targeted and without radioactive contamination.

I remember that now!!!!

I could mod that in and the damage would be the same as a nuke. I would need to adjust all nuke using weapons to do something nasty if used on planets but what would be the point? The AI won't care about that so it would be a matter of role playing. In which case I don't need to do anything but add the weapon and let the players enjoy. Since we are talking about that I have been toying with a few other ground centered combat units. The problems I have are (1) I can't do pictures for those units and (2) I want to stick with canon until the SFTC gets on its feet. Then I won't mind taking it in new directions based on suggestions and feedback. If only I could turn this thing lose! At the rate Aaron is patching problems I am starting to think this thing wont be ready for another year.
