Title: Question about blowing up planets
Post by: admiralcamo on August 06, 2010, 05:44:56 PM
In star wars canon, there are two things sthat can destroy a planet during the emporer reborn time.

One is the galaxy gun that blew up byss when the eclipse 2 rammed it. This would require a Space tactical combat mission to protect it until the projectile is ready.

Another is a world devestator. This ravages the planet with large tractor beams until the planet is utterly destroyed. This would require a land tactical combat mission to protect it until the planet is ravaged enough to give it the final blow. For balance, it expends on use but gives a HUGE cash boost to the empire.

Neither the Galaxy Gun or World Devastators are in the mod, which solves that problem rather well.  We've never said they would be, as far as I can remember.

Those would have been interesting to have though but it would create problems for balance.
Even though I am a little disappointed there are no world devastators or galaxy gun its for the best.

The main problem is that all of these things were created with some new super-awesome-strong metal that couldn't be destroyed by anything anybody anywhere knows about for reasons never explained, and the end result is that the only way to destroy most of them is to do something completely stupid that wouldn't be able to be recreated in game.
