I say give them the uber planet destroying bomb, make the rank to even load it GA and then if you use it you have to ride it into the planet in your dread and cant log back on for a week
problem solved builders are happy and other people get thier super diabolical planet killing bomb.
Heh

They already had bombs that pwned PCMs, they called them QSB's (Quantum Singularity Bombs, If i am not mistaken), those didnt even blow the whole planet up, and they were still taken out for being overpowered.
And imagine, you know how much people complain when the MV is reset, Imagine having to reset it every 2-3 days becuase theres nothing but jumpgates left.

No, it's not "great fun lol" it's retarded.
Who would want to blow up a freaking planet?! I don't see the point in having a SUPER-bomb. All you would do is just make it so that there is one less planet to cap. Also, it takes A LOT to 'blow up' a planet. No mere laser from the deathstar or a Nuke would rip the unsuspecting planet to shreds, leaving asteroids and floating debris around.
Just use PCMs, they are good.
Oh, and think before you post, please.

Well guys my post was a joke really, come on ride your dread into the planet and cant log back on for a week? lighten up what it boils down to is that the DEV team will build the game the way they think is best for overall player enjoyment and stability.

Frankly, I think Gideon's and other's comments pretty much summed it up into two, big, nice words
HELL NO
This has been discussed 500 billion times already.

Ok. My take on this ridiculous idea is this:
1. If the build time was 1 hour to build 1, and you could have say 5 on a Clavate, I would spend 5 hours building them, and combat till they were done. Point here is if you can build it, no matter the amount of time, it will get built. AMJD are never really in short supply and those take nearly 5 mins to build.
2. Once my clav was fitted for the bombs, I would have someone WH me to Earth. Boom. Gone. Es no Mas. Then, another WH later, bye bye Exartha. This is what I WOULD do. Now, having destroyed the other factions' home planets, that should be real fun.
3. If you want planet killing lasers, the Star Wars Saga is on DVD, use your PC and order a set. Good movies. As far as a game mod? Not a workable plan.
4. Thank God we have a good dev team, and a dedicated yet over worked game owner. As tired as they may get, I'm sure that an idea as dumb as this would never make it as a game mod.
5. If you were to have a weapon such as this, they would make obsolete all trannies, other bombs, and anyhing non-combat save a sup.
Summing up; Dumb Dumb Dumb! Far too many issues to deal with now, far too many whinners crying in the forums now, far too much SANITY in the game we have now.
no thank you
