Special Features
3D Printed - With enough raw material to print 10 Rods
Strengths
Kinetic Weapon - Delivering as much energy as a powerful Nuclear Bomb, each rod weighs a few hundred tons with a hyper-sonic impact velocity.
Weaknesses
Rate of Fire - The Kodak needs time to print its rods. This can take up to 15 minutes per Rod.
Specific Role - Designed for nothing more than Planetary Bombardment, the Kodak cannot defend itself nor fire on anything mobile. Each rod is only meant for the ground.
Description
Scaled for use under Emergence Assault Cruisers, the KOD-ACC, or Kodak, is a very large weapon that 3D Prints its ammo. With enough raw material to print 10 Rods, each Kodak drops a Rod every 15 minutes. Each Rod is magnetically accelerated towards the Surface, where it impacts at Hyper-sonic Velocity, delivering enough momentum to shatter the ground and deliver damage equitable to a large Nuclear bomb.
These are only used in isolated situations in which Planetary Bombardment has been authorised. These are not designed for any other engagements and excel at nothing other than dropping heavy sticks onto a planet's surface.
