Title: Crude player made RPG
Post by: doctercorgi on June 10, 2017, 05:27:59 PM
We can strap mortar shells to motion sensors, why not strap them to rockets? Take a mortar shell, some chem fuel, metal for the tube and components for the rocket engine. Maybe lock it behind shipbuilding basics as well to keep players from getting them too early on. Would give players an effective (but expensive) weapon to use on groups of raiders and centipedes.

This isn't a bad idea, something like a panzerfaust or whatever.

Or possibly an RPG setup with manual reloading necessary.

...though this would be better done with a weapon revamp.

Explosive Drop Pods should be a thing.

Load them with boom rats, or boomaloops.

How are you going to fit a cow sized animal in an RPG?

"Ah, Dr. von Mannerstein. What do you have for me today?"
"Vell General, my team developed a hyperdimensional matter compressor vich shunts objects into a pocket dimension to hold zem in very small spaces."
"Very good! Tell me, what did you construct with it? A backpack that holds a year's supply of rations and ammo? Armored vehicles with additional troop capacity? Underground bunkers with farming space?"
"No, better! Ve used it to fit boomalopes in our shoulder-mounted rocket varheads!"

I was talking about loading them into drop pods but boonaloop rpgs sounds cool.
