   Hey starshipers,

I’m a brand new player to starship, just strutting my stuff. My latest ship, the EBKD Kalashnikov, will be my vessel of choice. But it raises a certain question, in a way, similiar to the “jump ship” question.

The Kalashnikov carries some basic defensive weaponry, but it also carries six nuclear missiles. These nukes are specifically designed to be anti-planets or anti-bases, and are more strategic than tactical.

While I’m sure the missile won’t ever come into play, they are an integral part of the Kal, in design and purpose. I think other players may think up other Weapons of Mass Destruction (like starbombs, weapons designed to cause a star to implode, or planet lasers like the death star - altho these examples are larger than my nukes).

so, what do you think?

I saw WMD, then said someone must mean the USC! So my reply is below...

As my people (the USC) specialize in war and destruction, I of course I all kinds of goodies. Besides the lava guns and such, I also have missile frigates. At least two missile frigates are in each of my 20 or 30 fleets (can’t remember how many fleets) and also in my Genocide Fleet. They are equipped with hundreds of tons of devastating missiles, such as lava missiles, napalm missiles, and of course, every kind of nuclear missile.

What I’m trying to say is that I was allowed to register one of my Omega missile frigates with no problem at all, and I’m about to use one in Val Central. Some Anti-Valyance war for the Formians.

Anyway, hoping to see the Kalashnikov in Starship, especially Arbor Sector.
