(That's why I added a torpedo salvo in an edit to that post so it isn't a one-shot kill. If you want something a bit more reasonable about it's capabilities, suggest one in a PM and I'll make the required editing...)

(Um... a single salvo? You just made ALL our ships obsolete. Even Shadow's fleet! Yea he's got a superlaser but still...)
(Great job raneson. you could single-handedly replace all of starfleet right now. just slap on some flex tape)
Nick: Why would i take his clothes?
"We have no tomorrow, but there's still hope for the future. In our struggle to survive the present, we push the future farther away. Will I see it in my lifetime? Probably not. Which means there's no time to waste. Someday the world will no longer need us. No need for the gun, or the hand to pull the trigger." -Punished Snake
(a few torpedoes added to one lance is still hard to believe against a dreadnought, unless it was already damaged - to put out the amount of damage needed to punch through thick tzenkethi armor would take some SERIOUS power from the warp core...and that would either cause some EPS conduit rupturing or at least knock out several ship systems until the power could be replenished)

(probably...i mean, even with the biggest DPS build you can stick on a gal-x or keldon or whatever other ships have lance weapons...i think i'd still have a hard time one-shotting a tzen-tar unless it were one of the story mission ones like in mirrors and smoke
the superlaser on the indomitable and night's embrace, on the other hand...that thing puts out enough power to scorch an entire continent - just like the superlaser on the sovereign and eclipse class SSDs - but in a much more compact frame
and even there, with those ships having a power supply that draws from the combined energy supply of the universe itself, there's still a noticeable drain when firing it, and it takes a solid minute to recharge)

(as much as possible, except where things that SHOULD be realistic as much as soft sci-fi allows for, but isn't because of gameplay reasons...like one single player being able to nuke an entire fleet by themself in the blink of an eye, or that whole thing with the iconian war being absolutely devastating but the game showing no outward sign of it)

you're the one who was yapping about trophies - come on, let's go actually kill the guy before we go talking about looting his corpse...and watch your step - i smell spilled accelerant of some kind up ahead, probably coming out of that room off to the left up ahead *he says as they walk past a chained-up door, also on their left, before coming to an abrupt stop* oh...almost ran right into that *he kneels down and disables a laser tripwire, then looks around for what it was connected to before spotting an emitter of some sort on the wall to the right just under a large pipe* no idea what that is, and i don't want to find out the hard way (since alex never encountered a tesla trap before, so matt has no knowledge of them either)

*he slowly moves up to the room on the left where he smelled the accelerant on the floor, carefully peeking inside to make sure the room isn't full of explosive barrels or something, then backs out and fires a laser blast at the multicolored liquid on the floor, shielding his eyes as it goes up in a whoosh of flames*

matt: could've done it with a firebolt too *he murmurs so valentine doesn't hear him* but it's not like we have a dearth of microfusion cells, since these synths are loaded with them *he continues as he waits for the fire to burn out, then pokes his head inside the room to see if there's anything good to loot* meh...just a maintenance area - not even a fusion generator to loot a core from
SS: speaking of fusion cores...the one in the armor is about to run dry
matt: well, let's replace it now so it doesn't run out in the middle of combat *he walks behind the armor and hits the eject, the armor powering down and locking in place as matt pries the drained core out and puts it in his pack,t hen pulls out a fresh one and sticks it in the slot, then smacks it in with his fist, the armor powering back up and all systems rebooting*
matt: okay, now with that taken care of...*the group continues forward past the destroyed turret into a good-sized room - and another pair of synths which matt, nicky and nate make quick work of before heading down the stairs whereupon they hear a voice over the PA system*
kellogg: if it isn't my old friend, the frozen TV dinner. *nate tenses up on hearing the voice, immediately recognizing it as belonging to the man who shot his wife and kidnapped his son, his armored hands clenching hard enough to make the alloy creak* last time we met, you were cozying up to the peas and apple cobbler.

if i knew that, we'd be there already *he says as nate yanks open a security gate and makes his way through a security checkpoint and deeper into the bowels of the fort, going down a twisting flight of stairs until they reach the bottom where another security door can be seen - as well as a machinegun turret which starts spitting lead at them as soon as they enter its sensor range, nate quickly ducking back behind the wall, then popping out and squeezing off a musket shot, blowing the turret to pieces*

Nick: Me. he already knows we're here. why the hell not? i mean in Vietnam we blasted music from helicopters... did the same in Afghanistan in the 1980's.... then the Eugenics wars..... Then the Gulf War..... then Afghanistan in the early 21st century... et cetera. et cetera. but my point is... Why the hell not. not like we need to be stealthy. he's expecting us. may as well annoy him with loud music.

travis: Coming to you from, uhh, the jeweled green... I mean the green, the uhh Great Green Jewel of the Commonwealth, it's... Diamond City Radio.
