New Weapons and Drives

As mentioned in previous newsletters, by popular demand the weapon factories of various manufacturers have released new classes of large and huge weapons, including:

•Huge Beam Laser

•Huge Pulse Laser

•Huge Multi-Cannon

•Large Multi-Cannon

The clue is in the name, and needless to say, these pack a punch! They are available on both fixed and gimballed mounts to suit Commanders’ preferences.


<<JL wipes the drool off of his face>>

Bring it on!!!! :evil: :evil: :evil:

No crime & punishment updates? I thought there were supposed to be changes. :|
I still see a lousy 200 cr bounty for attacking cops. Why would anyone ever want to be a cop?

This is going to make monitoring the systems around and in Azrael so MUCH easier to monitor :

Looks good, no mention of the crime & punishment updates that have been mentioned though.
