Re: Best way to kill a sath
In almost all stuff FS, yes. A few campaigns have exceptions to that rule though.

That's a retail-only feature, I think.

Re: Best way to kill a sath
Some ships have had alterations made to them so that their fighterbays can be blown up.

The Moloch in Testing Grounds' fighterbay was destructible IIRC.

Re: Best way to kill a sath
If a fighterbay is destroy-able or not is set in the tables.
Most ships give it an %HP of 0, making it an indestructible subsystem.
However, the one on the Sath IS destroy-able.

Re: Best way to kill a sath
In my campaign setting, I had the GTVA dump unholy amounts of resources to developing an anti-juggernaut weapon, the end result is a penetrating delayed-detonation Meson warhead which burrows deep into the hull of the target and detonates.

Probably not what you were hoping for, but I'm hoping it remains in the realm of plausibility.

Re: Best way to kill a sath
Well, it would certainly looks cool if the engine could show it (like some thing attaching to the surface of the sath, drilling in, then inserting the warhead or something). Too bad the engine can't (well, unless you make it a rendered cutscene :P)

Re: Best way to kill a sath
Hold on! Isn't the hull of a ship able to hold out against unholy amounts of firepower from the vacuum of space to LRBGreens? So a small detonating charge trying to burrow into the hull would be extremely difficult right?

Have two wings disable it and another wing take out the four main lasers. Then bomb away...right? :nervous:

Re: Best way to kill a sath
With anything you want, doesn't have to be bombs (but if your going to use blobs, you'd better watch out for other ships).

Who said anything about small? This thing will probably wind up being bigger than a Seraphim.

As for the strong hull, yeah, that's a problem I'm choosing to ignore. I wanted a Sathanas solution that wasn't just another bigass ship, that route has been done and done to death.

Re: Best way to kill a sath
It seems like that many ursas so close together would provide a large enough target signature for a main beam.  Flyswatter time!

But even still; HOLY CRAPZ.
