Community Spotlight: Superweapon Variants

Several new Superweapon Loadout options became available in the V0.999.15 update released earlier. These options help mitigate issues with Faction-locked Superweapon Rooms, trading their strength for smaller Room variants. Each of the new Rooms is classified under a Set. Different sets cannot be combined with one another. For example, you cannot combine a Large set with a Medium or Small set. Small Sets allow up to 3 Rooms on your Ship Hull: [table equalcells=1 noborder=1] [tr] [td]
