Category:Munition

A Munition is type of upgrade affecting projectiles that can either be loaded as either a ship upgrade or as a Technology mod. With the exception of the Cloud Faction, Laser-based weaponry is not affected by munitions.

Munitions may have damage modifiers on shields and armor, and / or deliver status effects such as Acid or Freeze to any unit a projectile carrying them hits.

When a munition appears as an upgrade on a ship, it overrides any munitions technology you load. Fighters from carriers use the same munitions as the carriers that spawned them.

Munitions do not stack.

If a ship is equipped with a Self-Destruct mod, the Self-Destruct plasma will use the munition technology you have equipped if you have one equipped, even if the ship it came from had a different munition. Thus, if you have the Iridium Rounds technology equipped, a Piranha with Acid Rounds and Self-Destruct will have an acid bullet and an Iridium self-destruct.
