Bunker Buster & Base Buster
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
Perhaps as the Jackhammer Siege Rocket? The guidance aspect isn't useful for anything other than firing at trucks in the base.
The purpose of this T3 BB seems to be instantaneously destroying solitary hard structures at range, which is a good compliment to the short-range, but high-splash of the Plasma cannon.

Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
AR = All Rounder , A = Anti Personnel? hate acronyms, already have waaaay to many at work.
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
Meh, all it takes is one glance at the weapon table.
All Rounder
Anti Personnel
Anti Tank
Anti Structure
Flamer
Artillery
are the six damage types of 2.2+. Their abbreviations are exactly what you think they are.

Biggest problem is that it makes MRA overpowered. Full damage to tanks and structures, while not having the weight problems of cannons?Kacen wrote:I fully support this.Zarel wrote:I could make seraph (and possibly also MRA) do AR damage instead of A damage

I like this name.TVR wrote:Perhaps as the Jackhammer Siege Rocket?
The cracker name cracks me up.
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
.... what for the explanation Zarel.
I'm looking forward to test this out.

First you'll need to define the MRA, is it a volley rocket launcher, or short-range rocket artillery?Zarel wrote:Biggest problem is that it makes MRA overpowered. Full damage to tanks and structures, while not having the weight problems of cannons?
Then you could determine which damage type would be best, anti-tank for direct fire, or artillery for indirect fire.

It's an MRL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiple_rocket_launcherTVR wrote:First you'll need to define the MRA, is it a volley rocket launcher, or short-range rocket artillery?

It's... both.
For balance reasons, it should probably stay as A damage.
Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
I always loved the look of the devastator missile which was used as a T3 or T2 (I can't remember) bunker buster in one of the versions of the game by NEWST (I think it was them, again, I'm not sure)
I'm also not sure if I can upload the .pie of it, I never had any licence documents for it.

Re: Bunker Buster & Base Buster
I'm thinking that the projectiles for these, in particular the VTOL versions, should resemble JDAM hard-target penetrators. These have a hardened nose cone and plunge INTO the target before exploding to destroy the target. I think... that a weapon like this should be able to destroy a hardpoint with one hit. And that VTOLs should carry two of them... although they would be pretty slow from the weight, so maybe just one..
