The Heavy Plasma is the extreme version of the Thud's plasmas. It does in 1 shot what the Thud does with several. As an added bonus my gunnery accuracy always improved whenever I flew the Dev
Anyways the Heavy Plasma would most certainly make the torp obsolete. It does more damage, it never runs out, it's cheaper, it can engage more targets and it makes Devil Rays run away
Who said anything about kamikaze? There's nothing more exciting than taking on a big ship in a small ship with no punch. I mean the cats would be committing zukara from the humiliation of being taken out by a puny little Arrow - or Sivar forbid a Hellcat
But then since it's the Heart of the Tiger maybe it's OK.
And kamikazi dives are cool. Imagine this - you're out there, bugs everywhere, wingmen ejected, your ship shot to hell. What do you do. Eject? And waste a perfectly good ad hoc torpedo? No sir. You spin around, kick in the AB and dive into the enemy mothership, ejecting at the last minute and causing the greatest set of fireworks since Kilrah went POP! It'd be great, the enemy would be beaten, the women would swoon, the brass would promote you, the chief tech couldn't yell at you - OK maybe I do drink a bit while on the job
Anyways the last time I actually did that was on that mission where Blair actually does get sodden. Geez I thought drink slowed your reactions and dulled you wit - not make you crazy. I couldn't fly in a straight line, even when I took my hands off the stick. Thank god for the autopilot, it was the only way I made it back to the Victory. Then when Captain Eisen finally has a good reason to yell at me, it's Flint. Dressed down by a liuetenant. What a career low.
BTW how was your day?
