the big alliances and stuff are good for the people who want it, but it mostly attracts only a herd of sheeps

powerful personalities is what the game needs much more, they don't want to be in alliances with those others

trust me they hate those groups, thats why they want to fight them, more tools are needed for this

we need wargear for those individuals, it would attract much more interesting players to the game


I dont mind if development and production of such a bomb takes 3-6 month, and if only one at a time can be produced,

but there needs to be a superweapon for dedicated soloplayers


the content they will bring to the game will be far bigger then most of the average alliances nobody cares about

CCP is not here to empower your crusade against nullsec, King Harry Forever of Highsec, first of his name, lord protector of the 4 realms, leader of the anti-nullsec crusade.


by the way, the game is already out of balance, what makes it out of balances are those big alliances especially the CFC, you can not fight them anymore with groups and conventional mesures

they suck up all of the playerbase and assimilate them into those mindless creatures, compareable to the Borg in Star Trek they are against individualism and therefore need to be fought by individuals

thats why we need terror weapons with devastating impact


Malcanis' first law.

It's always the older, richer and more experienced players who profit most from any changes that were implemented to help newbies.

Even if these weapons were included into the game, exactly like you envision them- the CFC could use them as well, and would do so to a devastating effect.


you did read it but you don't get it, they could not use the weapon against an individual like me, I'm the enemy here, its pointless and irrelevant if they have it, its your big fleet thinking where you guys continuosly get stuck... like I said, they sucked out your personality already, you are the swarm... but with that bomb I will bring freedome to you again... trust me
So - you're saying "To heck with what might happen to everyone else, so long as I get my hilariously dangerous toy* to play with?"
Is that right? Gee... What a team player!


* Kinda reminds me an old Sov-Block (Cold War, not Nul-Space) hand grenade designed to defeat armor - The lethal blast radius was greater than the distance you could throw it. Fun, hey? Roll

if you try a bit harder you sure will understand it, I explained it a few times now.... there is some deeper meaning behind it, however it feels like you just scratch the surface

Seriously, you just got plenty of systems in Fountain...couldn't you give a single system to Harry, for all his efforts?

I'd like to apologize for the poor quality of the post above and sincerely hope you didn't waste your time reading it. Yes, I do feel bad about it.

Humor mode: OFF

Not true.
There are a number of mechanisms by which a nuclear weapon can do you hurt even in space.
~ EMP burst.
~ Ionizing radioation - Gamma- & X-Rays, and highly energetic particles.
~ Violently expanding plasma ball (from weapon materials, converted into plasma).
~ Radiated thermal pulse (as opposed to conducted thermal pulse).

Sure, the AoE is MUCH reduced - you still wouldn't want to be near one when it goes off.


Humor Mode: ON

Besides, it makes all the environmentalists angry when we nuke the Space-Environment. P

sure we need it, and the game needs it as well... at the moment the focus is too much on alliances and groups... there are many soloplayers who are able to build up big amount of ISK on their own, but the superweapon to use it is missing

if I'm able to build an amount of ISK comparable to a corp, then I want to have a weapon to fight that corp

the only balance needs to be the price for the weapon, that can be discussed


I believe this is why we have mercs. If you have money, they will come.

Ooh harry-pea. Is there a story with a boo boo to tell about it?

Anyway if such a bomb existed I am sure goonswarm could afford to detonate one every day on jita undock until said bomb is removes from the game

You're ahead of the curve on the mindless creature part of that statement.

We already have them, they're called Goons.

Why not? why should you have a weapon that others can't use? You've certainly proved that you're special, but you're not that special.

Wasn't there a small squad capable nuclear bomb developed during the cold war? I cant seem to find the video I watched on it... but it had a launch range of something like just under a half mile...but an explosion range higher than its launch range... so pretty much any squad who used it would kill themselves..
That was the M-388, which was launched from the M28 and M29 launchers, commonly known as the Davy Crockett or nuclear bazooka.

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

And every other trade hub, as well. Not to mention some ISBoxers we could name would be getting a visit from the Bomb-o-Doom.

Which would be absolutely side-splittingly hilarious.

Hell with it - I'm changing my vote: CCP - Make this! The laughter and tears will be epic!

Tuxford bomb. But it would cost enough PLEX to reimburse affected players.
