450mm Super Gun
design by Lewis Roberts
The perfect weapon for your friendly neighborhood TED. The
Super Gun is designed as a terror weapon. At its maximum range
it is fairly inaccurate. But if firing at an enemy country, the
shell will still land somewhere, and hopefully on something
important. Examples of such attacks are the SCUD Missle attacks
during the Iran-Iraq Gulf War (Pre-Stellar Terran History).
The weapon was designed with
Fire Fusion & Steel.
