Title: New weapon or a Bug?
Post by: ExChairman on January 11, 2016, 12:06:57 AM
Not sure what it is, spoiler or bug.

I got somekind of weapon that says it is a missile but have no speed and my escorts cant lock on to the weapon and fire AMMs.

On the map it says the following (Lac) Active Sensor 0.105/R73

In event update it states its seen  a New Active Sensor on Missile or Buoy! Strenght 8, Resolution 73 and when it hits i states I been hit by LLia Raye Anti-ship Missile

No speed att all, my CIWS engage as normal and when it  hits it does 11 points and atleast 1 shock damage per wave that hit my ship, sometime even 2 shock

Sounds like a mine? A bus with no speed and when you get close enough a missle comes out and shoots you.

I encountered some Precursor mines in my earlier games (version 6.x). This is most likely the same thing.

Steve, did you sneakily change Invaders so they defend the wormhole with mines? Or did he just get an unlucky generation that put Precursor mines around the Invader's path, which also makes some sense.
