Re: OMG! Read this to believe it!
I am currently playing a solo game where the Vorlon's came into my territory with troop transports in their fleet and started taking my planets. As I had the rest of my WP's blockaded, I concentrated my efforts on regaining my space from them. Then the Namovan's opened a warp point into my home system and sent in a star destroyer and, you guessed it, BAM!!!
Although the stock AI's are dumb, this is proof that a modded AI can be an effective pain in the arse!

Re: OMG! Read this to believe it!
In another thread someone mentioned putting weapons on Colony LC's.
A TDM just waltzed into my home systems, Glassed a new Gas Giant colony and placed a colony on one of the Rock moons of that planet

Re: OMG! Read this to believe it!
that was a good laugh, what would they do with a tectonic bomb? hmmmm, on tectonic bombs, slightly OT,
But could you put a drone size tectonic bomb, meant for drones only (very $$$) that would be like a mini bomb deal. (would only work with"moveto" order which i hope is forthcoming in a new patch) with this so called "move to" order you could also mount tons of new stellar manip things on drones! yeah! how about ftr sized tectonic bombs or gravity matter spheres, that would of course kill the ship/ftr using it? all thoughts, and in the case of the ftr mounted tectonic bomb one ill probably use in my foundation and empire mod (that i have been thinking of but not doing) to go with the scenario (which i have been thinking of a bit more).

Enough already, have you contracted Diareaha of the mouth again!

Re: OMG! Read this to believe it!
In the sci-fi show Andromeda, they have Nova Bombs that can act as a catalyst for a supernova. In something like the third episode, they had modified fighters capable of carrying them.

Re: OMG! Read this to believe it!
Captain Styles: But Sir, what is this new weapon supposed to do? 
Admiral DeVore: It is called a "star destroyer". When your ship activates the weapon in the same sector as a star, the star goes supernova and all planets in the system are obliterated. 
Styles: But Sir, we are now a neutral empire. We can't leave this system. We will glass our own people! We will wipe out our own civilization! 
DeVore: Orders are orders, Captain, and I expect you to follow them. 
Styles: (whimper)

It's not entirely implausible that a small race/empire would destroy their own system if they were the 'fierce' type who would rather die than be conquered, and someone was in the process of conquering them. Wait till the huge invasion fleet that you know you cannot defeat arrives... BOOM! Were they named Shofixti?  |
