There are a few other ships that you might want to work on repositioning..... the Liberty cruiser for one is very very tough to hit with missiles.

Soup tells me that you can hit the Rheinland hull with missiles after you drain the shield, or maybe I'm very tired and wrong, possibly imagining that......

You could always leave the Rheinland vessel the way it is and say it's supposed to be that way due to fine German craftsmanship; Rheinland battleships have incorporated breakthrough explosive abosrption technology which make them impervious to missile fire.

I think it could work.... At least that way it sounds cool. Besides, there are other ships with much more powerful weaponry.

I just bought a Kusari battleship, and plan on having someone help me test the missile situation there later. I know that if you shoot it just right the Kusari battleship has a vunerable missile point. I still feel resintment over decomishioning my Rheinland cruiser, she was a might fine vessel.

I'm also not sure the Osiris/Dreadnaut can be hit by missiles. I have fired missile salvos from a few angles and have yet to find the proper trajectory.


From another point of view it might make the mod more diverse if some ship hulls are weak vs missiles and others are not. That would be a step in making ships throught the universe in pc hands less uniform (which is good in my opinion)..... it's sorta boring to see everyone in the same vessel. The Osiris and RHeinland battleship are also the most expensive ships for sale, perhaps the cost is due to that marvelous new technology!

The other solution I was thinking about is what if you took flak turrets and made their explosions really really big? (think sonic mines in episode 2 of star wars) That might be neat, because then they would..... have a purpose. This approach would also make people be careful about firing off 50 or so missiles at a time because they would definately hit stray npcs who have this ingenious ability to get in the way. That would also be something I would see as a plus.

One final note..... it would be cool if nomad gunboats/battleships dropped their turrets, or maybe other rare super nomad tech.
