Well I'm sure there is more, but these are the ones I can come up with off the top of my head. enjoy

hard to pick. sun crusher or DSII. I'll choose DSII.

Slornie · « **Reply #2 on:** May 13, 2008, 07:24:33 AM »

I'll go with the Sun Crusher, although they all have flaws, and the use of any is morally ambiguous at best..

Meyer · « **Reply #3 on:** May 13, 2008, 07:49:19 AM »

Sun crusher is great at ramming ships. but the main weapon is stupid. and if DS II would be filled with normal turbolasers, ion cannons etc it would be great too.

im leaning towards centerpoint. both death stars are far too easy to destroy. also darksaber malfunctioned and blew up so thats a pretty bad superweapon. ummm sun crusher is good........ dark reaper yeah......

That was more down to the Hutts economising on the material for construction than any design deficiency..

DSII. I just loved the way it was portrayed in the movie.

star forge, its the only superweapon that could have potentially been used for good.

Wrong. It fed off dark side energies. The sun crusher (my pick) and the two Death Stars could have been used for good anyways. Mining and destroying dangerous planets and star systems before they kill anyone.

yes but the design wuz never used after that. perhaps if it succeeded in a firing sequence i would think otherwise but i think of it as a failure.

How could destroying a planet be for the good of the people. I could see using DS II to prevent a fate similar to Serindipal, but destroying a planet?

Meyer · « **Reply #11 on:** May 13, 2008, 11:53:51 PM »

if the planet was useless and had no life. maybe it should be destroyed to make way for a new lightspeed route. and destroyin asteroids it would be very efficient. so DSII is good choice. also in a way that it can destroy enemy forces without destroying everything, unlike DSI.

strike23 · « **Reply #12 on:** May 14, 2008, 03:17:10 PM »

even feeding off of dark side energies, the star forge was cabable of making anything... it could have been used productivly to help others

The original DS could destroy fleets, because the prototype could. It just did not get the chance.

Slornie · « **Reply #14 on:** May 14, 2008, 06:53:00 PM »

Nope. Its targeting system wasnt good enough to hit anything ship sized. It also had a very long recharge time for the superlaser, which would prohibit efficient use against fleets, in any case.

grandadmiralbeck · « **Reply #15 on:** May 14, 2008, 08:22:31 PM »

were not really talking about how it could be used for good. none of these superweapons were used for good. this is about which one you think is the best.

Re4_wesker · « **Reply #16 on:** May 14, 2008, 08:53:47 PM »

all of them were built for evil purposes plain and simple.

i suppose they could have been used against the vong. then again when they used centerpoint against the vong things didn't go too well.

Dr. Knickers · « **Reply #17 on:** May 14, 2008, 09:44:16 PM »

The StarForge would be good against the Vong; it wouldn't really attack you. The disruptor field might have interfered with their dovin basals. Even the Vong can't defeat an infinite fleet.

vadereclipse · « **Reply #18 on:** May 17, 2008, 09:22:04 AM »

a superweapon you forgot was the orbital nightcloak. i believe there are models in the foc data, but they sound pretty poor, and you would be unable to work them into FOC.
