It was the thentythird century... Humanity split apart by a war that saw no end nor beginning... In a last ditch effort to survive, the Alliance launched 5 sleeper ships to a distant galaxy. They managed to break through the blockade, but few would have guessed the nightmare that would follow. The Bretonia, the Rheinland, the Hispania, the Kusary and the Liberty... each chrisend after its parton nation, each carrying the hearts and hopes of many... They broke through, but mere seconds after their hyperdrives kicked in... they came... For a single moment, mankind was united again, paralyzed at its beauty. Time didnt pass during that moment, untill, finally... it fired.... in a bright flash, the alien ship's projectile impacted onto the sun, the shockwave emerging powerfull enough to vaporize everything in its wake. few would have known, the Alien ship's appearence did not combine flawlesly with the residual hyperspace trail, for the 5 ships duplicated themselfsbut not their content,...
The Slugger missile is a completely new aproach to
a classic consept: rather then a physical
programmed Tracking system and an ignition based
propulsion, This little launcher rig and its
warhead relie compeltly upon magnetics; a magnetic
duct channals the slug to its target, while the
warhead itself unleases a powerfull EMP(Electro
Magnetic Pulse), powerfull enough to severly
damage Fuselage joins, bolts and welds.... oh, and
not to mention, powersupplies.
they are rather fast, accurate and cheap, but in
addition to solid ammunition, they also drain your
powerplant per shot.
