Anti-ship melee weapons

(1/3) > >>

Bauldr:
Ship mounted (on the hardpoints perhaps?) anti-ship melee weapons. Imagine, a battle squid!

Captain Smollett:
I remember seeing a really great picture on the old forum of a Junker like ship with a huge buzz saw on the front of it.

Imagine if this became a new light piercing weapon, it certainly makes sense, and imagine how challenging but powerful it would be to roll up on an enemy ship with a squid and start sawing off their armor.

Good stuff.

Mattilald Anguisad:
Rotating cylinder with metal teeth that would crush sips, or a giant bizzsaw or a giant chainsaw, or maybe a giant drill or a ramming piston. I'd love som sort of heavy equivalent as well on front of goldfish.

N-Sunderland:
@Smollett That was Sgt. Spoon's idea for what the lumberjack should look like, long before the gun was released.

Nadrynne:
Well is putting a "ram" on the front of a ship a bad thing? For example the ram could take up the medium gun slot on a Goldfish. It would greatly increase ram damage, but obviously you lose the slot for the gun (a big downside).

Ramming is a valid and often used tactic so it is not a "no way" thing like with boarding. Plus a combination of good piloting skills + impact bumpers could render it questionable in use.

Not so sure about the axe... though if we wanna get into history stuff. Some large ancient chinese warships had these giant hammer things on them that worked a bit like that axe... =P
