Let me explain in detail, to save time.
The generators produce small spheres of hyperenergy that are shot into an area of space. When ships traveling through hyperspace cross the same area of realspace, they come in contact with the hyperenergy spheres. These spheres overwhelm the blocking capacity of the ship's shields and destroy the craft.

The send out pulsing rings of energy which destroy ships traveling through hyperspace. Do I have to go get and post a technical definition?
#12 6:50am 13/12/02
That doesn't tell me you understand how they work.
#11 6:44am 13/12/02
The Pulsemass generator is a turret bassed weapon with a gunner. It is not a mine with a one time charge. Exactly the same as on an Abolisher cruiser.
#10 6:38am 13/12/02
What's your understanding of how plusemass generator work then?
#9 4:30am 13/12/02
These are not abolisher mines. If you read the tech, you will see what I mean.
#8 3:54am 13/12/02
Maim, you realize that Abolisher mines only last a few moments once released? Meaning that the only way this could be effective would be if they were placed in the path of oncoming ships, and released at just the right moment.

This is a rather simplistic design and doesn't require that much explanation.

*backs off*
Just a little note here...

If you're telling me that you can write me 30 good, 2000+ word R&Ds, fine.
Otherwise, that's just stupid. The only way you could fill 30 slots is by writing off pointless, shitty, space-filler R&Ds.

I was under the impression that, though not a rule per say, R&D's needed a large-ish amount of words explaining their background, and reason for development.
All the R&D's I have seen here have had a lot of text describing them.

I will be moving Asteroids from my two asteroid belts into systems I want to secure.

Kas, back off. You may ask questions of it, but not demand the information.
Maim, I'll approve it, however I fail to see how this is going to be an effective weapon unless you're planning to move asteroids out into the middle of "nowhere" to use them.
#2 7:44am 12/12/02
Kas, are you a staff member? If so, excuse this.. if not.. mind your business.
Now, to answer the questions.
Background of the weapon: It was developed by the Dark Lord of the Sith as an effective way to blockade systems with little manpower.
Reason for weapon design: To destroy ships in hyperspace traveling through specific regions.
Example of weapons power: Destroying ship in hyperspace.
Now, I have not seen these questions asked of any other R

Needed, background of weapon. Reason for design, example of weapons power.
