Rock Melter

Rock melter

Originally proposed by Stormy

Related ideas:

- Improved Bulldozer/Earthworker
- Advanced Terrain Modification

Description:

Special weapon (maybe mounted on a special unit) that can melt rocks and dirt


This is a bad idea, because:

- Melting sand would only make glass and that would give you very little traction.

Does "Posted: Mar 19 2006, 07:42 PM" mean nothing to you?
Don't go through old things and feel obligated to reply to all of it. In fact, as a general rule, don't reply to anything older than two weeks.

A rock melter you seriously think they would use such a powerful thing as a non military device.  If you have the energy to melt a damn rock it would blow right through any tank or building.  Lava is melted rock takes alot of energy to melt rocks.  

I know if i had such a thing i would have blown some b****es away with it.

Because we don't want super weapons.
If there is something that can blow everything with one shot, noone will build 'normal' weapons.
