Green, as for me posting, I was waiting on LeeRoy. Though to be fair, another thing I was waiting on was my own damn creativity.Those missiles kinda turned me off what with magically weighing nothing despite being 6k tons. That and the huge carpet-bomb radius. I'm unsure if that encompasses the town that Ysolda is in or not.
The reason normal bunker buster missiles are so heavy, is because they require a sturdy shell to penetrate down into the bunkers they're meant to destroy, instead of exploding on top of them. Compare them to armor piercing rounds that explode after entering your body. The only reason the weight is off, is because I didn't do my math, and underestimated the sheer weight of them if I left them as it were. Consider that changed, and their material improved.
In basic; Normally, the body of each missile makes up for 3500 out of 5000 pounds. The remaining weight is the explosive load. Now, using the fabled 'Paradisonium' lightweight super durable metal, and much smaller, but equally powerful, explosive loads, that weight is reduced to 1000 pounds in total per missile. That's 300 tons per tube. 1200 ton in total. Tadaaa. Problem fixed.
