So, one of the people I play with posted this image on Face Book...and...F-me.....it's just one....BIG....CANNON!

You'd need a full room to start outside its firing range....wow. J.D. had too much time on his hands.

Your thoughts on the matter at hand?

It only shoots straight up.

Compensating for something?

ya, my first thoughts were equal to candlejacks. it would blow itself up on the first shot.

Unless it was some sort of Gauss Arc Flayer with spikes of dark eldritch lightning sparking off the top and laying waste to targets below.

However, Arkbrik's right, this is more a Phallus Flayer than a Super-Cannon.

My thoughts.

The only way that could kick moar ass is if it was in one colour

Post by **Nitewatchman** » Fri Oct 23, 2009 3:25 pm

What's the big deal with the solid color thing? That's boneriffic. Who wants everything to be the same color!? Color coordination is what matters, and that thing isn't mismatched.

The way it works is basically a giant piece of artillery. Fire, bounce the giant laser blast(or whatever JD wants to call it) off a stealth satellite, then use the satellite to direct the massive death ray. Basically like a mirror.

This, of course, brings to bear the question, "Why not just fire it from space?" to which I reply, "This is Brikwars."

So it takes a turn or two to actually hit the target?

I think you could do more damage by throwing someone of the top. But this is Brikwars! Practicality can go jump off that thing, death machines are more awsome!

Imagine the impact crater and shock wave that this would create if it fell over. I would exert all efforts into knocking it over.

And unless the general paid CP for a foundation, that shouldn't be too hard to do.

Yeah, JD kindof sounds like a tool

ummmm, given what you could make with the same number of briks, this isn't a very usefull use for them.

Fail cannon. Unless you can lean it.

Personally, I'd stick it up in space, refer to it as the "Galaxy Gun" (Star Wars Expanded Universe reference for the win!) and use it to snipe passing planetoids. But yes, unless you have enemy flagships to blast with it, it's a pretty enormous waste of good bricks.

Do you know how many went into it, by the way?
