Lamprey-like subsystem disruptor. Fires invisible bolts but with particle spew. Its refire rate is so high that it can disable even fighters.

Out of curiosity, how's your mod going?

[Pieolence]

Okay, but it seems to me that you just want recolored things, with different firing speeds, damages, et cetera... personally I think you should aim for uniqueness, and describe to us what you want the unique thing about the weapon to be like... (for instance, the Jaegers eccentrically long range), but oh well... here you go...

In case you haven't already noticed I just copied the last post, the Mekhu SDG one, and modified it a lot, since i don't have a weapons.tbl on hand right now (but a knight of the weapons.tbl can fight without a weapon, and just use a normal table, like a coffee table, or dining room table, right?).  I also decided that submitting other weapons from my campaign/mod might be a spoiler (though it will probably never be finished, and I'll probably just make a big battle map with all the ships and weapons)...

This is a copy and paste of the previous weapon, only modified a lot...

edit: oh, and you wanted the club thing to be slow as well, okay, I'll change the velocity from 1,000 to 0.1 (never mind, I thought that that might be going a little... overboard, so I just changed it to 800, though you can always change it to 0.1 if you want), basically these weapons were my idea of jokes, rather than serious weapons.

[james777]

Out of curiosity, how's your mod going?

ok

I need a bomb.

[Flaming_Sword]

There was the bomb I posted in the other thread, but I think I should lay off for now and make the rest a surprise. (not that you haven't seen some of them in my older releases, but they've been tweaked since then. )

[james777]

I need a alien weapon.

[Jeff Vader]

I need a alien weapon.

Don't we all?

[james777]

I need some alien lasers and a alien beam.

[Snail]

For which race?

Be more specific please. As in, color, power, for whom, etc.

[james777]

i'm going to make a new race. They will have hi power guns

[Snail]

So what color guns? Can I have a few screenshots...?

[james777]

white

they will fly Shivan ships

[Snail]

Rather strange, this one. Not very "pretty" since it had to be white, but it's pretty cool. It fires lots of beams very quickly, some at the same time, to make it look cool. It does a fair bit of damage too.

okay, now it is no longer level beta...

edit: if you were wondering why it was classified in the first place, it was because I am using it in my mod, and I didn't want to say anything about it, since I don't want to spoil anything.  The reason it was classified level beta is a reference to my mod (which will have multiple different campaigns, in which you play on different sides, to make it nothing like any of the cliche high-contrast good vs evil, black vs white, pie vs cake, George Bush vs George Bush's evil twin, Rebels vs The Empire, yada yada yada...; one of these sides doesn't trust you at all [I'm going to try to make it be in a very comedic way, as I am trying to make the campaigns funny, but not so funny you are laughing to the point where you too busy laughing to aim at anything...], and that side has the Nagant [the Nagant is, if I remember correctly, the name of a Russian hand-gun, a very obscure reference to War of the Worlds, which, according to what I've read about it, symbolizes the Russians as the aliens; don't worry, I'll try to make sure that the humor that is in the mod is funnier...).

[Snail]

Just so that you know, if it's classified level Beta that means that only people under the age of 9 cannot view it.

[Pieolence]

Oh, I didn't know that was what Classified Level Beta meant.  No I meant that only people in wings beta-omega can know what it is...
