It is the dawn of the 22nd century, and the conquest of space has been monopolized by a handful of hugely ambitious mega-corporations. A delicate and vulnerable balance is maintained, but now, at the very edge of the solar system, a discovery has been made which will tip the scales forever — and send one ship and crew on an epic interstellar odyssey.
The Siege Laser device is a powerful long range weapon that can be attached to battleships and can be used for long range attacks whereas enemy weapons are out of firing range.
It needs 2-3 other ships to supply the battleship with enough energy to charge the laser. Once fired, it can penetrate the heaviest shields, even the fortress shields of battle stations.
Sorry but...IMA FIRIN' MAH LAZA BAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
Every time i replay Nexus i forget how the damn laser works. Then i remember it's got something to do with assigning a group of ships together and i eventually figure it out, again. Does that happen to u as well :D? I usually avoid using it, as i prefer all my ships to be mobile, but it comes in handy sometimes. I once killed the giant space insect queen because i forgot to turn off the SL command and i had to redo the whole mission :P.
