Yeah I read it, a long time ago.

Transports hold more MOX, more boom.

if someone can export these mat into picture files, I am more than willing to modify them.

That is awesome.

Might it affect the planet, though? Having a chunk blown out of the planet by a MOX-loaded Talarca might've left larger scars than a big black area.

Perhaps have mass off the planet reduced in the infocard?

A way a lone a last a loved a long the riverrun, past Eve and Adam's, from swerve of shore to bend of bay,
brings us by a commodius vicus of recirculation back to Howth Castle and Environs.

If that had happened, we wouldn't have a habitable planet.

Uh come on, be a little realistic? I mean the idea it's still burning is a little far-fetched, but the mass of the planet being reduced? Anything that would noticeably change the mass of the planet like that would pretty much wipe out all life pretty easily.

Well, you've got a Cruiser flying at the planet LOADED with explosives, I think that would make a large crater and perhaps a small asteroid cloud in orbit. Not a ring, a cloud, isolated to one spot.

Perhaps not as extreme as I may have conveyed it, though.

Vader's flag at the end of Episode VI, anyone? The effect from space would hardly be visible, cruisers are tiny in comparison to planets with respect to modeled windows.

Burning/fire effects would be visible, but, considering that it is the primary food producer of Bretonia, either it's been re-built pretty quickly, or Bretonia is now dependent on Synth Foods, which would probably spawn a Bretonian version of FA/LWB.

The thought is that the Talarca used an effective deployment method. And, uhm, Firestorms last a long time. How long does Napalm burn for? Add something with a decaying halflife, and a jungle...

So, most of the Mox doesn't burn immediately. It sets things on fire, but doesn't reach critical heat to ignite/melt/react. We're not talking reactor fires. Then, the ashes settle, burn for a while, but every so often, a bubble of hydrogen escapes from a pile of mox covered in swampy ash, drifts around, gets ignited by something. This would be a highly nutritive area, plants would grow back, then be burnt down. Give it a large enough area, and the fires could easily still be going, albeit at nothing near firestorm rates.

And, again, it didn't wipe out the Planet. It didn't majorly affect the climate. Cambridge lost a fraction of its arable lands, and planetform crews moved in to fix it(long, long process). Its still mostly free of burnt up disasterland. Say, an area of about the Amazon rain-forest got moxified and gross....that leaves....hugely more...than enough farmland to feed the 3.2 billion peeps of Bretonia. At least for the next few generations.
