Ionic Energy Torpedo

Energy tuned to pierce energy shields generated by Living Beings

Very fast travel speed and difficult to destroy

Inner energy particles enable it to mimic the effects of Electro-Proton Bombs

• STRENGTHS

Fast: Travels as fast as an A-Wing in space, making it a difficult foe to catch even for Veteran Pilots

Shield Piercing: Outer energy shell calibrated to pierce shields generated by organic beings

Destructive: VERY useful for engaging Conventional forces shields, due to it mimicking the effects of Electro-Proton Bombs, causing devastating Ionic damage to shields and other critical electrical systems of conventional ships

Replenishment: An energy Torpedo Launcher has effectively limitless ammo, enabling constant bombardment of a target

Swimmer: Can travel underwater

• WEAKNESSES

Fragile: Easily destroyed

Evasion weakness: It's a dumbfire weapon and cannot evade, making a sufficiently fast Interceptor (with a talented pilot) have less to worry about in chasing it--the only real challenge is catching it

Not Stealthy: Twice the heat signature of ordinary Missiles, and easily detected because of it

Time Lapse: It takes 14 minutes for enough energy to build up to a torpedo firing

Dispersal Issues: Firing it is a potentially two edged sword if it's too close, for both the ship firing it, as well as any allies

• DESCRIPTION

Ionic Energy Torpedos: Don't let enemy shields sleep easy at night when you have stuff that lets you be a ax crazy murderer towards them!

--Sales Pitch


The Scion Series Ion Missile is a Anti-Capital Ship Missile capable of doing tremendous damage to Conventional Shields and Electronics of enemy vessels. Just be sure not to fire it too close...

as this is very much similar to your other missile a lot of the same edits will be needed

Secretes a resin that enables it to penetrate certain shields

This is going to have to be expanded on. Looking at the creature used to create the shield it is living and was a biotech feat. Making something to handle it should require just as much engineering which means a sub to explain the resin this creature secretes.

It's alive, aliiiiivvvee!: As a result of a Plasma Eel being modified into a living, capital ship grade missile, it is inherently suicidal, and travels as fast as an A-Wing in space, making it a difficult foe to catch even for Veteran Pilots, as it employs evasive moves most Missiles don't, to the point it can navigate through an Asteroid Field to reach targets in a way ordinary Missiles never could. Dozens of them can be launched then deliberately told to "Stand By" by a wireless transmission from a Star Destroyer in whatever they were fired at, deliberately remaining inactive and undetonated until another transmission is sent. As they can lie dormant underwater or in Asteroid fields this means very effective surprise attacks can be utilized at a distance

Replenishment: The Missile is grown in special gestation pods aboard a Star Destroyer, the squirming beasts are then auto loaded into the adjacent Missile Tubes and fired magnetically. At that point, the missiles internal bioreactor takes over to provide propulsion. These gestation pods tap the main reactor for the energy nourishment necessary to keep growing Missiles, ceasing production when not in combat, potentially supplying in theory a nearly inexhaustible missile supply

By modifying the canon creature it is going to need its own sub and the rate it seems to be able to grow new ones is going to have to be drastically toned down as it is growing when in combat which would mean there is several things straining the power systems.

Evasion weakness: It's instinct is to always fly toward the thing it's fired at and detonate, as it gets closer to its target it relies on evasion less and less preferring a bee line and speed, making it easier to shoot down

it employs evasive moves most Missiles don't, to the point it can navigate through an Asteroid Field to reach targets in a way ordinary Missiles never could

So is it unable to evade or able to evade so well it can navigate asteroid fields since was tough for just about anything in the galaxy.

Gestation Time Lapse: It takes 007 minutes for a pod to grow a missile

As IU have said numbers matter and I get that this is your own joke but that amount of time is the number you are giving. It effectively makes unlimited super powerful and super fast missiles that can't be stopped. The time will have to be changed.

Time Limits: It only has a "battery life" of two hours in dormant mode, after which it breaks down

Dozens of them can be launched then deliberately told to "Stand By" by a wireless transmission from a Star Destroyer in whatever they were fired at, deliberately remaining inactive and undetonated until another transmission is sent. As they can lie dormant underwater or in Asteroid fields this means very effective surprise attacks can be utilized at a distance

If it can be used to effectively mine an area how does such a small window before they breakdown factor in? This seems very much a waste.

Piercing Time: In order to fully penetrate Quilxyn Shields, it has to burrow through them fully even with the resin in a time consuming process of about a minute that may leave it vulnerable to being destroyed by passing defenders as it tries to burrow through, and may become exhausted by the effort leaving it stuck in a halfway state. While secreting it's Anti-Quilxyn Resin, it cannot mix it's lethal, enzyme based chemicals.

A minute is not all that time consuming, given the power of it and its destructive capabilities there is still little means for bryn writers to fairly defend themselves. This will at the least need to have the time increased substantially.

In terms of ratings you are balanced which is good but this largely has the same issues of the previous sub., It is specifically made to target another persons subs and I hadn't seen it before this one but Listib Hibin told you

Do not reference someone elses species or technology. Remove them.

In regards to other peoples species of technology in this way. Referencing it for citation purposes is one thing making something to just destroy it is not.

Please move to Prefactory, Krass Wyms

 

[Krass Wyms]

Laertia Io as you wish

 

[Krass Wyms]

Laertia Io make sure you list the edits done for this please

 

[Laertia Io]

Edited out smart missile/bio based aspects, instead making it all based on more Conventional tech, Krass Wyms

 

[Krass Wyms]

Laertia Io

you are one point over
