Default Re: Questions about torpedoes

Er, torpedos are too wimpy?

Odd, I tend to use them along with DU cannons and missiles. They don't do as much damage as a Wave Motion Gun, but they fire more often. Though if I had WMGs, I'd probably still use DU cannons as backup weapons. I can still fire at ships while the WMGs reload.

Interesting idea, torps as very fast seekers. The game SE4 has some inspiration from has a missile weapon that uses this concept. Sprint-mode missiles in Starfire are less accurate than standard-launched missiles, but can't be tracked by point defense.
