Default Re: A complete newbie\'s questions...

Atrocities: Meson BLasters have a very good damage to KT ratio- actually they're the third best weapon in the game based on that, edging out PPBs.

They're also a lot cheaper to research; with the way SE4's tech tree works, 6 levels at 10000 to start ends up being cheaper than 12 levels at 5000; I can have MB VIs about the same time my opponent has APB VIIIs..and the meson wins in that contest.

EDIT: And yes, PD is -insane- in the standard game. The best damage/KT in the game, actually tying the Anti Proton Beam for straight out damage, AND a 70% to-hit bonus.
