Too bad weapons can't be Destroyed on Use... it would allow for true Reactive/Explosive Armor - set it to range 1, fires on anything, and give it the Destroyed on Use ability...

Ooooh, fantastic idea, Ed! This would be a fun thing to play with.

/agitate on/ Hey! We want a "weapons destroyed on use" ability in SE5! Pretty please?!? /agitate off/

Another thing to add to the SE5 wishlist or perhaps SE4 Version 2.

I don't think I have room in my designs for reactive armor.

'Weapons destroyed on use...'

Heck I would be happy if they add one shot, or weapons that would run out of ammo. Then you would have to either stock ammo for them, or reload them somehow...

Mainly a good idea for fighters and such. Launch big missile at target...return to carrier and rearm....

I know it didn't work in 1.84. I'd be surprised if it does in 1.91...
