SPECIAL FEATURES

• Aerosol Dispensers
• Can be thrown, launched or dropped from starships
• Theoretically capable of holding any aerosolized chemical agent within it, such as Noxinium A, Fex-M3, Plank Gas or Accudrop Stun Gas
• Theoretically capable of holding any aerosolized biological agent within it, such as Necrotic Scourge Mist Virus, Gobindi Virus, Aorth-6 or Octuptarra Virus
• Two modes of biological/chemical agent delivery:
  • Express: The Mk II Viral Bomb activates its Detonite charge, scattering its biological or chemical agent in a large cloud
  • Time Delayed: The Mk II Viral Bomb releases its biological or chemical agent through its Aerosol Dispensers, allowing for a more measured release of the substance inside of it

STRENGTHS

• Dual Purpose: The Mk II Viral Bomb is capable of containing both biological and chemical agents.
• Unpredictable: The Mk II Viral Bomb can produce a bewildering variety of different effects depending on what it is loaded with.
• Lightweight: Mk II Viral Bombs are quite small and lightweight, meaning that they can be carried in large numbers.
• Versatile: Mk II Viral Bombs can be thrown, launched or dropped from starships.
• Drop the load: Mk II Viral Bombs can release their payloads in two different ways: express or time delayed. Each method comes with certain advantages.

WEAKNESSES

• Where the wind blows: Once a Mk II Viral Bomb releases its chemical payload, it is at the mercy of atmospheric conditions.
• Friendly Fire: The potential for friendly fire with Mk II Viral Bombs is incredibly high, especially when using particularly toxic substances.
• Unpredictable: Depending on the substances used within it, the Mk II Viral Bomb may be completely ineffective against certain targets.
• Expensive: Though they are quite small, Mk II Viral Bombs can be quite expensive to produce in large numbers.
• Committed to the bit: Once the Mk II Viral Bomb begins releasing its payload, it is impossible to stop or interrupt the process.

DESCRIPTION

Upon his latest meeting with Supreme Commander Marlon Sularen, Fleet Admiral Vorin Zonill was tasked with finding a reliable method to deliver the Necrotic Scourge Mist Virus onto the enemies of the Imperial Confederation. As the Confederation seeks to launch its second incursion into Sith held space, having the ability to utilize the Necrotic Scourge Mist Virus may very well determine if the attack is a success or a failure. As such, the Mahporeem Imperial Remnant began working working on a delivery system for the virus.

For months, a viable design for a delivery system eluded the Imperial Remnant, until a chance discovery on Mahporeem produced ancient schematics for an old type of Viral Bomb allegedly produced during the Clone Wars. Though the original schematic proved more than sufficient for carrying the Necrotic Scourge Mist Virus, the Imperial Remnant decided to take the design to the N&Z Umbrella Corporation and improve upon it.

The new design, dubbed the "Mk II Viral Bomb", is both lighter and more durable than its predecessor. More importantly, it is capable of utilizing a wide variety of both biological and chemical agents, and can be deployed in a number of different ways, such as being thrown, launched or dropped from a starship. Of course, these types of weapons can be as dangerous to their users as they are to their enemies, and chemical/biological composition must always be taken into account when the weapon is being deployed onto the battlefield, as must atmospheric conditions be taken into account as well.

Since October 2024, you have to separate the different versions of the same item into different subs. Please post different versions into new subs. Thank you for your understanding.

MANIAC will that do? I can remove the descriptions in the special features if its still an issue.
