Title: Introducing the Orbital Defence Gun (ODG)..
Post by: phreak on June 25, 2001, 08:29:00 pm
$Name:                         Orbital Defense Gun  
$Short name:            ODG
$Species:                       Terran
+Tech Description:
XSTR("The Orbital Defense Gun, or OGD, is a 2km long beam cannon.  Its massive beam cannon can strike at targets over 300 kilometers away.  Although powerful, the recharge time for the main cannon is about 4 minutes.  Two ODGs grouped together can, based on calculations, destroy a Sathanas Juggernaut. Another beam is mounted on the side for defense against closeer-in ships during recharge time.  It also has a few anti-fighter turrets, mainly flak and AAA Beams.", -1)

Stop being a God damn tool Fattony, if you can berate ppl for spelling you are a bigger idiot than I thought. Go take a break and remove the dictionary from your butt.

Anyway enough of this senslessness, it sounds pretty good Phreak, sorta like that big installation in Starlancer, looks like it's armed to the teeth  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Wow, he's the kind of person that would sign in under a different username I bet.

thank god.

And I've never player SL so I won't know what you're talking about.  If you read the readme I got the idea playing Warzone.

That's why the correct course of action would be an IP ban.

Hey, if it wasn't don't you think he'd be back already?

Surely a dynamic IP would just make that useless.

The orbital station in Starlancer was a large ion cannon, it was designed to kill capships and was mighty good at it. It could even lock onto fighters meaning you had to fly damn close to it while dogfighting, take out the armor and get the hell out of there when the thing went up.

I'll just say this thing is more deadly than 5 mjolnirs just because of the extra turrets.

First of all, yes Fattony is no longer with us. We (the HLP Staff) have given him the second chances that other BBs haven't, and he took that for granted. So to cut a long story short - Fattong = OwnT[/b].

Now then, this ODG...Very nice! however I'm not sure if you intended for the model to not be seen or not, as if you did intend for it to be flown around up close in mission, you might want to try to add a little detail to it, maybe a command deck or a radion mast or something? Just an idea for further improvement  (http://dynamic.gamespy.com/~freespace/ubb/noncgi/smile.gif)

Thanks for the compliment Thunder and everyone who did reply...

Um.. I think I forgot to metion this, but if you watch the main cannon fire, the heat produced would kill any life form.  There is a docking hatch to move the thing.  Just take and Argo, dock, and push.  That dock point also has a hatch where you could crawl in and replace the liquid helium that cools the thing.  Also maybe replaced any melted circuit-boards or something.  Replacing heatsinks would require a drydock.

Mission designers could use this thing both ways, distant firing toward you (scary) or close in firing in the distance (cool) or combinations of both.


And yes Max, this would make a l33t SDI weapon, but that wouldn't be "legal" would it?  It would also create a cool fireworks show if it fires... watching it from the atmosphere... watch the blue beam of light end and see a huge explosion up in the sky...... need to lay of crack..
