You know that mission where you have to go capture a “Warp Bomb” at a gate? Well I propose this as a new addition! It would be crafted like any normal ammunition and be equippable on any ship. It functions like a Nuke, but instead of being a flashing missile that makes a ton of noise, it will be a smaller “EMP bomb” model that makes no sound, but will flash on the radar every few seconds. It will detonate after 25 seconds.
Blast radius: 2500m
Radiation cloud: 1000m
Proposed damage: greater than a nuke, but centralized, so you have to be within 500m for it to do “massive” damage.
Charges in cartridge: 3
Reloading speed: 40s
Cartridge reloading speed: 120s
Its icon will look alieny just like in the mission.
I have absolutely no idea what “warp bomb” you’re talking about, Fox.
Side note, have alwyas been annoyed that the beacons blow up when hit with an EMP bomb.
Is there an electronic system keeping a chemical explosion from occuring at these beacons?
Maybe the beacon has like, ridiculous amounts of circuitry inside, and the coolant is something explosive because yes. EMP > circuits burn > booom. Maybe.
I want to have a stern talk with whoever designed those beacons.
