What about a Nova cannon?
What are people's thoughts on this? Could a low power Nova round be used
to
destroy a city?
I am in the middle of some fiction involving the use of one of these.
Would
be interested to hear what other people have to say.
But IMHO orbital bombardment would rarely be a tactical (as opposed to
strategic) weapon. Though ortillery as mentioned in DSII could
presumably be
carried out by specialist space craft.
