let's not forget that the shivans were called the destroyers by a kind of ancient poet, actually

I think if a Sathanas fleet attacked a planet, the planet would be dust...

[ChronoReverse]

Yeah, but we want the planet to become dust in a matter of seconds.  Big weapons are cool until they're pointed at you.

shows up, blast the planet to bits in a manner of seconds, move on to do something more important

13 hours to barbeque Vasuda prime. The planet is still there though. And it took the Sathanas fleet some 30 secs to kill the star. It took them days to assemble the Sathanas fleet arround the Capella star though.

A death star with shivan textures?

Quantum Singularity Gun (or something) - fires black holes.  Hardly original, but the oldies are the goodies.

Or a subspace phase gun - tears a planet into pieces by warping chunks of it through subspace.

It took seconds to explode but the briefings in earlier missions say that unusual subspace readings were bein detected hours earlier.

How about a giant super knossos device?  Open a giant portal between the centre of a star and the planet.  Instant vaporization

i like the subspace one, keeps in mind with the shivans advanced subspace tech.

Maybe the shivans could drag a planet into subspace, you know to use it as one of their colonies or slave planets or whatever.

Anyways, My original question was supposed to be asking what superweapon would have gone into fs3

[Stryke 9]

Device that shuts down subspace altogether, and for good.

After all, it IS their element.

[CP5670]

That would be kind of boring to use in campaigns though, since you could never leave a mission... (unless you are using fs2_open or something like that)
