(Weapon icons are placeholders)
Additional types of World Devastator weapons that are potentially available to your empire can be researched as rare technologies after finishing the Colossus project. Once the project is complete, you will be able to build a Colossus at any Starbase with a shipyard where you have the Colossus Assembly Yards building built. Once built, the Colossus functions similar to a civilian ship, in that it is own fleet, and cannot be merged with other fleets. Each empire can only have a single Colossus active at the same time, but can build a new one if their active one is destroyed.
Colossi have no conventional armaments (though we are discussing a few medium/PD turrets to them), and their real purpose is to target enemy planets. When a Colossus is ordered to target a planet, it will travel straight towards it, ignoring enemy ships entirely even if they fire on it. The Colossus will travel to the planet, take up position and begin charging its weapon. The weapon takes quite some time to charge, giving enemy fleets a chance to try and destroy the Colossus to stop it from firing (though Colossi naturally can take a great deal of punishment, they are not invincible). Once the weapons is fully charged, it will fire, executing its effects (as described above) on the hapless planet. The Colossus is then free to continue on to the next planet if you so wish. Most Colossi weapons can only target planets owned by empires you are at war with, though some of them can target primitive worlds and the World Cracker can be used on uncolonized rock-type worlds (but will not always generate a mineral deposit in that case).
(Animations & interface are partly WIP)
The system for creating World Devastator weapons is fully scriptable, and modders will be able to create their own planet-destroying/changing effects.
Titans (Apocalypse Feature)
Titans are another new ship class available in the Apocalypse expansion, but unlike the Colossus they are much more like conventional warships. Titans are researched through a regular tier 5 technology, and can be built in any Starbase with a shipyard and the Titan Assembly Yards building. Titans are massive flagships that come equipped with an array of heavy long-ranged weaponry and layer upon layer of shields and armor. Their front section has a single Titanic-size slot that can fit weapons even stronger than XL weapons, such as the immensely powerful Perdition Beam that can fire across a whole system and potentially destroy a battleship in a single shot. Titans also have an aura slot that can fit a single offensive or defensive aura that can buff friendly ships in the same fleet or debuff nearby enemy ships. Titans are intended to be the flagships of your fleets, and as such are limited in number: You can always field at least one Titan, plus an additional amount dependent on your overall naval capacity.
Ion Cannons (Apocalypse Feature)
Finally, there is one last Apocalype feature to talk about for today: Ion Cannons. Ion Cannons are stations that can be built as part of the defense platform fleet of a Starbase. Each Ion Cannon is essentially a single massive gun emplacement that mounts a single Titanic weapon, allowing the Starbase to engage enemy fleets at massive ranges and greatly improving the Starbase's ability to deal with enemy Battleships and Titans.
That's all for today! Next week we'll continue talking about Cherryh and Apocalypse expansion, on the topic of Marauders, Pirates and the Great Khan.

뿌수는건 있는데 다시 모아서 만드는건 없는 모양이네요. 아쉽습니다.
첫댓글 타이탄급 무기가 추가되나보군요 모더들이 또 얼마나 파워밸런스를 장난질할지 기대됩니다ㅎㅎ
새소식 게시판에 번역글 있어요(소곤소곤)
http://cafe.daum.net/Europa/3FCl/1489
이럴수가.. 전 스텔라리스 게시판 밖에 안와서 잘 몰랐네용 ㅎㅎ;;
개발일지 올라오면(별일 없으면 목요일)
항상 1~2시간 이내에 달팽님이 번역해주시네요.
그래서 목요일은 저녁 이후엔 틈나면 새소식게시판 들락날락 거립니다.ㅋ
크으 광물16 ㄷㄷㄷㄷ 광물필요할때 쓰면 되겠내요. ㅎㅎㅎ
뭐 스텔라에서 외교는 거들뿐 '힘이야말로 우주공통'의 언어입죠. 암요
솔직히 타이탄급 함선, 행성파괴 병기는 기본 게임에 들어가있어야 되는거 아닌가요?
애초부터 dlc로 팔아먹겠다는 생각으로 본편을 병신같이 출시했다는 건데
파라독스 정나미가 떨어지네요
dlc 유토피아 까지 사놓고 이건 아니다 싶어서 dlc 포함 전체 가격을 되돌아보니 그정도 가치의 게임은 아닌것같네요. 스텔라리스는 버리겠습니다
전 저런게 오리지날 본편에 들어가 있는 게임을 본적도 없습니다..타이탄은 생각하기 나름이지만 콜로서스는 전무후무하지 않나요?
@ldw1120 생각해보니 우주게임들중 본편에 타이탄급 함선을 가지고 있는건 몇개없네요. 신스 오브 솔라 엠파이어에서도 그랬고 프레닛터리 어나힐레리션 도 그렇고
그래도 모든 dlc를 합쳐놓고 총가격을 보면, 이건 아닌거같네요
네 잘 생각하셨습니다 얼른 버리세요
비즈니스 모델일 뿐임, 재미있어서 수익나면 계속하는거고 아니면 못하는겁니다 정의 문제도 아니고, 유로파도 다합치면 말도안됨
워해머 40K관련 모드 몰입도가 더 올라가겠네요.
