I have a sneaking suspicion that Messiah Mining's Howler is also an asteroid mining weapon, as is evidenced by the fact that one shot destroys an asteroid instantly (and also the fact that it's produced by a mining company, and the fact that the description mentions pulling the metal out of hulls of ships). The Plasma Hammer is a beam weapon with a really tiny range. ![]() Even a larger ship like a Genocide Cruiser gets pushed back. Of course by this point, you've realised that it's impossible for a small ship to successfully mine asteroids with a Plasma Hammer - good thing there are smaller weapons that you can use. Secondly, it has quite an impressive recoil - any smaller ship trying to use one would be blasted away from the asteroid faster than the asteroid's destruction. They weigh ten tons, which is a little too heavy for a small ship anyway. But after saying that, it suddenly occured to me that I would be able to find them on the Messiah Mining planets, and you can. For one thing, it's incredibly hard to find - I've been flying around for about half an hour trying to find one so that I could see how heavy and expensive it is, and I haven't seen it once - I took the image to the left last night, and I haven't been able to find one again (I can't even recall where I saw that one, either, but I suspect it was on a Messiah Mining planet). Polycon's Mining Laser is the Plasma Hammer, but unlike the Mining Laser, the Plasma Hammer is not really all that easy to mine with, especially in a smaller ship. It can be bought at most planets within the Polyconian Empire. Enjoy.Ī-2 What Do I Need to Start Mining? The Polycon version of the asteroid scoop is the Mining Arm, shown at left. I've written this Addendum to cover asteroid mining in the Polycon plugin, and I don't intend it to be nearly as detailed as the main section of the page - only a brief little thing covering the asteroid types, and where to buy and sell them. In any case, a TC means Total Conversion, which means a whole new collection of asteroids and minerals, and weapons and ships (but especially the asteroids and minerals). I recommend that you play it - 'tis very good. The plugin can also be downloaded from the EV Nova Add-on Files page, although it could take a bit of searching to find all the parts. The full story can be found on his website, as well as the plugin itself. The plugin was created by a man known online as Anubis, and a group of his friends, and it is based on a pen-and-paper RPG which they enjoy playing. Polycon is the first Total Conversion (TC) plugin available for EV Nova.
