Description[]
Missiles! The ideal weapon for the lazy warrior. It's essentially a fire and forget weapon. Just lock on and you're done!
Beware, however; these are not the friendly old weapons that we know from history, you know those silly things which could only fly a few thousand miles, were imitating a turtle, and packed the punch of a 5 year old. No, we're talking business here. These babies cover great distances in the blink of an eye and really hurt your target bigtime! So if you like throwing around weapons costing millions of credits apiece (ignore those cheapskate laser fans) then this is the weapon for you!
Your enemy will have a hard time defending against missiles; armor and shields are of little use against the might of missiles. Still, those nasty point defense systems can sure ruin your fun.
Researching Missiles is easy. Keep this in mind: The more advanced you get, the more BANG you get for its size. The cost will go up with each version, but hey that's what taxpayers are for!

You're on your way. Now keep going till you reach the all powerful "Blackhole Eruptor!". One word of warning: When you get those, they'll cost many billions of taxpayer credits, but they're powerful enough to tear holes in the fabric of space... Make sure you enjoy them!
Missile Types[]
The list below gives the types of missiles available. The numbers in parentheses are the cost and size efficiencies. A higher number means a higher efficiency.
