Why stop at Weaponized Moons?

Hahahaha. Awww, Mike, you really need a giant dose of "chill out". This is, after all, a forum for a game...

I really struggle to imagine how this would fit into the game in a positive way. Sounds cool, but doesn't make much sense to me.

It has to asked....

Why stop at black holes!?

Here are some super weapons beyond the scope of PA:

Alternate universe ray
Time machine
Space bender
Super Nova
Devil Cannon
And fin-ally, Sharks with lasers on their heads!

What, no tribbles?

I said 'beyond' the scope of PA. Tribbles are in PA, right?

Only if this is a shout out to Gunbuster

Whats the point in making a black hole. Is it to render gas giants unusable? If your thinking the black hole will swallow up the solar system then your wrong. The black hole will have the same mass as the gas giant.

I only want Black Holes if i can blow them up with my asteroid KEW

The only use for a black hole that I can think of is for sending asteroids and small planets into to be destroyed and removed from play.

However, in the scenario of a map being setup so that a planet collides with a black hole after a certain amount of time, it could make a good micro-plot device. What I like about this idea is that a black hole itself doesn't have any balance issues. The creation of black holes is questionable, though.

Fur balls of death and destruction Tribbles?

True actually. Hold on have I played you before?

That's what Google tells me...

We shall exterminate them. All of them.... If we can do it at a rate faster than which they breed at… *checks out stats* …yes we can!

Because you're a megalomaniac who likes to destroy in style.

I don't think so. Could be that you saw me in some realm videos. Unless it was a random game a while back.

Yay!

Maybe getting you mixed up with someone else. If you want a few games our clan is always open to new talent.

I like it would it should be a way to destroy a solar system over time in galactic war.

For those interested, if Earth was a black hole, it would be about a centimeter across total. Really tiny.

Yea, black holes would be interesting, but I honestly dont know what the point is to them in this game. Maybe if you could make an artificial singularity weapon or power generator that could have the effect of a black hole.

Why not be a bit more - down to earth, shall we say? I would enjoy Metal planets being special in that they are the only planet sized orbital beings which can move around. They already have engines - inside or something, that they merely need to activate, they should have turrets which can shoot down aircraft etc, tons of cool stuff after they have been activated - in short, a death star. You could take them with you in GW, to serve as an assault base, and they could be a planet sized factory and storage for robots and mass/energy, like towers in Age of Empires, since obviously we would not be able to actually enter inside the planet like the deathstar - game wise, at least. I dont know.

The best way to weaponise a black hole, would be to manipulate its magnetic filed to act as a large scale emp to other commanders, or use the hydrogen/helium to power a massive fusion generator to make a laser cannon that slowly uses up the gas giant.
