Missiles

Buying, loading and firing Missiles

Buying

Missiles are consumable weapons purchased from the Construction Console. After the missile is purchased it will spawn close to the console. To fire missiles you must load them into one of the six available missile bays on the upper deck on either wing of the Battlecruiser.

Loading Missiles

To load a missile simply pick it up from the construction console and ferry it to any missile bay. Once at the missile bay drop the missile from your inventory into the load area, where it will automatically by conveyed and loaded. Alternatively you can set AI to automatically load them for you. Missile can also be piled into the load area; when the missile bay becomes free, a random missile from the pile will automatically load into the bay.

Firing Missiles

Once loaded, missiles can be fired from the Weapons Console by clicking on the respective icon found bottom right, above the command card. When fired the missile is used and a new one must be loaded if you want to fire more. Missiles always fire from the front of the Battlecruiser.

Missiles are consumable

Missiles are consumable since they must be replaced after use. Because of this missiles are usually purchased after upgrades, as upgrades provide a permanent bonus.
