    Building on Ronin's idea here: http://star-made.org/content/if-disintegrators-were-warheads-can-penetrate-shields

    Does any one think the addiction of Nuclear weapons could be feasable?. You'd build a rocket shaped object with a warhead constructed out of a disintegrator and maybe a new type of block. Could generate "radioactive" blocks in the area that it hits, and if you stay too long it would kill you. To prevent spam perhaps youd be limited to a few nukes, depending on size of ship, but even the largest ships would only have a few. they could also be shot down and disabled. would be interesting to see a planetary bombardment with nukes. O, and radiation would eventually dissipate. But then that begs the question "How big would exsplosions be?" I dunno. It was just an idea from the top of my head.

    Maybe, specially if there was an EMP affect. Perhaps it could be made so that only larger ships could be hit, smaller ships would be much more manuverable and could just out run the nuke. Plus, with the lmimite opposed on how many nukes a ship could hold it would be a waste if you were to use it on a small ship.

    we have antimatter cannons.
    antimatter means total annihilation of matter and antimatter.

    if a shield can withstand this punishment then a nuke is just a breeze.
    but pseudo-science aside.

    the game is lacking on some deep and long-term content. the last thing we need is another griefing tool.if it was in the game it would be banned on most servers anyways.

    (btw. a few patches earlier the missiles were basically nukes if you made a cluster big enough.
