spitball (class 1 ship)

the spitball expels a revolting clump of acidic mucous (a gorbie 5/1) randomly into class 2.

@ admin i could not find a modifier to create the gorbies randomly. ( it has to be random, as it is impossible to aim a gorbie with any precision!)


attack/life: 0/1
manpower: 1

researchtime: 1 d

from the inventor:
Quote:
the Gorbie is a kind of missile that is supposed to go randomly into both fleets of class 2, so, theoretically if 100 gorbies were released 60 could appear in one fleet and 40 in the other etc.
Or 70/30 or even 100/0 but I guess most likely would be around 50/50. It is not meant to remain after the battle. Like a missile, I may have left that part out of the modifiers.

Hope that makes sense, I guess it is like a lucky dip missile cos it can backfire against you and hurt you more than the enemy.
