Meson Cannon, under construction
No great descriptions yet again, but I figured I'd show y'all what I've been up to, and you all know what this is ;)

Yeah, I know you were waiting for a very nice sig, in which I was quoting some very famous scientist or philosopher... guess what?!? I wont indulge you...

Why, you ask? What, do I look like a Shivan to you?!?

Re: Meson Cannon, under construction
^ Actually my guess was a proper ship version of the meson cannon seen back in Derelict.

It's actually this:
Quote
GTD Golgotha

A radical departure from traditional GTVA destroyer design, the Golgotha has been designed in the post-Capella age. As such it has been designed to take on the largest and most powerful Shivan destroyers and juggernauts and win. The Golgotha's main weapon is an experimental Meson cannon, harnessing immense power and focusing it into a cohesive energy beam many times more powerful than any conventional beam cannon. Somewhat faster and more heavily armoured than an Orion-class, the destroyer carries only two fighter squadrons (less than half of a normal complement). Nevertheless, with a suitable support fleet nothing can rival the Golgotha's destructive power. The crews of this vessel have not nicknamed it the 'giant killer' without good reason.

That's classified information.

Actually, it was a Zephyrus and four Elysiums copulating in front of a Meson bomb. Those pigs! :nervous:

Re: Meson Cannon, under construction
Minor question:

Do you think the Golgotha should be classified as a dreadnought (GTDn Golgotha) instead of a destroyer?

Freespace Wiki says a dreadnought is a ship the size of a destroyer but with little fighterbay and primarily designed for capital ship combat.

That's a fan-made designation, it doesn't really have any universal authority.

Pretty much this. Not to mention that it's faster and more fluid to say "GTD" during dialogue than "GTDn" :D
