XL Cruise Missiles For Stellaris
XL Cruise Missiles For Stellaris
I was wondering why there are no XL missile launchers in the Heinlein update. We have two XL energy weapons, 1 XL projectile weapon and no missiles? Well, I’ve decided to mod one myself.
This mod adds two technologies and two XL weapons: Cruise Missiles and Antimatter Cruise Missiles (which is an upgrade to Cruise Missiles). The Cruise Missiles tech is available right after Marauder Missiles.
Cruise missiles are somewhat slow and their launcher has a pretty high cooldown, but their alpha damage is incredible and their health is high to help surviving a flight through enemy PD. We don’t want the best missiles getting shot by PD easily, right? Here are their stats:
