Synchro Cannons

Unread post by slade the sniper »

Was there ever a hard damage number attached to a synchro cannon, or did it just always have the "destroys everything" damage?

The Heavy Particle Beam was also a "destroys everything" weapons, but then eventuall got a 2d6x1 million MDC damage number. Are synchro cannons similiar, or would they be like 1/10th that or something?

In the 1E Books (Bk5/Sentinels Main) and even 2E Books, no. Not unless you link the Shadow Alpha and Vindicator (for 1E only) Destabilizer Gunpods to the Syncro-Cannon (as they are Mospeada, the OSM version of RT-NG saga).

I'd also remind you that the HPB/Reflex Cannon has that damage vs a planet in actuality, so is supposed to be applied in very specific circumstances.
