The successful use of the Aps really makes me want to be sure we implement it when it comes time for Belfast. Not that Belfast will happen anytime soon, but I do believe we should prepare to ultimately hit it because of the fact that we have it scouted, etc.

Unfortunately, I think we're going to start seeing Feddie RP start being used to have rogues Purchase Anti-Orbital weapons for their bases. That just means we'd have to change our target priorities before Orbital drops.

I seriously don't know why everyone is freaking out about Rogues buying Anti-Orbit Missile Launchers everywhere. THEY SHOW UP ON BASE PAGES. I asked Ket.

Yeah to be totally fair, they don't need rogues to purchase anti-orbital missile batteries anyways. They can totally buy them their selves.

Also, I want anyone who thinks the Rogues can buy invisible Anti-Orbit Missiles to look at this: img.photobucket.com/albums/v190/dracostarcloud/proof.jpg

I didn't see that they could buy them themselves. Makes sense, though. My only concern about them is it limits the potential for the awesome orbital drops we had this past go around.
If people didn't see the need to purchase them before, they'll see it now. I can expect a few bases to be picking them up soon. But like I said before, just means new target priority for the artillery units.
Now the question is: Who's going to Scout Augusta?

I'm honestly under the impression that the Anti-Orbital Drop Missiles are more geared toward shooting down smaller things like drop capsules, I'm not sure 100% how effective they'd be against the Aps.
That's all just speculation of course. I could be wrong and they could rape anything entering the atmo.

Since I think their first use was in MS Igloo, Kalarba tried using them to shoot down a Titans MA that was able to bombard their base from space. If anyone can think of any other times when anti-orbit missiles were used, please let me know.

Have these launchers ever come into play before? I don't recall anything like that happening last run.

Since the rosters aren't up, I can't think of a concrete plan for Monday, but I do have some ideas.
Assuming all ships are in Moderate or greater condition, we'll attack their Big Tray with the intent to capture it.
Assuming at least one ship is Heavily Damaged, we'll retreat to Archangelisk, our East Arctic base.
Assuming at least one ship is Disabled, we'll spend the day repairing the Disabled ship(s). If all our ships have survived, the Berkhalter and the Shooting Star will attack their Big Tray while the other ships repair.
