Victor III Escort Frigate (Better flak cannons) image - Forum Wars: The Mod for Star Wars: Empire at War: Forces of Corruption
This Mod is now just a pet project carried out by s-t-n. Once the mod is in a state where staff is required, this page will be updated with full details and lots of media! Currently, I am currently working on:- Sound Galactic Map Planning And to a lesser degree I am working on:- Campaign Planning Galactic Conquest Planning
This screenshot better shows (trying viewing the full thing) the (now finished)flak cannons, firing on a squadron of the good old T65s.
Unlike conventional game mechanic anti-fighter cannons, these are relatively inaccurate but explode in proximity of fighters, catching nearby fighters in their small explosion radius of flak.
The system works nicely; an alternative and different working weapon to go alongside lasers and railguns, and has the advantage of having more destructive capacity.
The weakness is its weakness; though the Victor III frigate is ideal with her numerous flak batteries for AF duties, flak cannons, due to their unguided and far less accurate nature perform far better in crossfire to make the most of its destructive capacity.
