Default Re: Question - Crystalline Torpedo

My idea is similar:
The damage should be left 45, thats low for the high-tech, the speed should be left as it is too, but anyone actually looked at the name of it? HARDENED crystal projectile(something like that). Take a note at the HARDENED. What is the damage of PDC V? 65? then, make the damage resistance to ~100.
Also, the low damage does not make it for 50kT of space. 40kT would be best.

Then my proposal is that 45 damage, rate 2, range as it is, same speed, increased damage resistance and lowered space taken.

Should i send this to MM as a suggestion?

I'd say so.

Assume you have a 1kg squirrel
E=mc^2
E=1kg(3x10^8m/s)^2=9x10^16J
which, if I'm not mistaken, is equivilent to roughly a 50 megaton nuclear bomb.
Fear the squirrel.

No, I disagree. I think all you guys are missing the point

It's a balance issue. It's a specialized weapon for use in armor-heavy games.

And don't tell me those don't happen, because I'm in one right now, in Geo's PBW tourney

The crystal torpedo is just fine as it is.
