Sargun II Posted April 26, 2010 Report Share Posted April 26, 2010 They're based in space, and thus a space-based weapon which is forbidden. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JerreyRough Posted April 28, 2010 Report Share Posted April 28, 2010 (edited) Roleplay balance. Instant nation killing weapons that have the ability to obliterate anything are just not needed. That's why we can't have the flying laser cannon (instant kill). Which isn't nearly as devastating as people thought when the no-flying-laser-cannon rule came out as new evidence shows, but meh. Oh well. Edited April 28, 2010 by JerreyRough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iKrolm Posted May 2, 2010 Report Share Posted May 2, 2010 Just to confirm, if I'm dropping nukes from planes or launching them on missiles at a nation with an SDI, there's always a 40% chance that they'll hit, regardless of other factors?

Michael McBride Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I would like to protest Zoot's post here: http://forums.cybernations.net/index.php?showtopic=84477&view=findpost&p=2285376 It is a clear case of metagaming. We had talked earlier on IRC about this and him moving his Emperor on a "rumor" clearly demonstrates using OOC knowledge for IC movements.
