EZRAEL VERTIGA
Good evening, Senior Agent. This transmission contains the first part of the report you requested.
Second half follows once you do your part. It will contain our footage and scans on the Cult of Technology.
| Report: Cultist Warhead Technologies Filed: Leon Isley & Noel Bäker Authorized: Ezrael Vertiga Date: October 9th, 825 Since our first contact with the Cult of Technology, which according to the Apahanta's archive is dated back to November 24th, 823 A.S., we identified four different types of missile/torpedo-type Cult of Technology weapons. ANC-2 "Nova" Antimatter Torpedo Launcher‣ equipped on Bomber-type Cult of Technology Drones "Nightmare" Battleship Missile Silo‣ equipped on Carrier-type Cult of Technology VS-0074 Command Carriers "Heavy Torpedo" Launcher‣ equipped on Gunboat-type and Explorer-type Cult of Technology Combat Vessels "Titan" Missile Turret‣ equipped on Carrier-type Cult of Technology VS-0074 Command Carriers After reviewing our archived footage on all marked Cult of Technology encounters, including footage from our Rovers and the Captain's personal gunboat, it became apparent that the Cult of Technology seems to be in the process of developing new weapon technologies and test them in battle. Certain weapon types have shown to be rather promising for their cause, whatever that might be apart from causing enormous damage to their targets. Alternative weapon technologies like shotgun-like short-range particle weapons similar to the PPAC Battlecruiser Turret and the Volley Cannon of our weapon blueprint catalogue; Manticore Beam Cannons that work similar to the sirian Zapper technology; Dark/Anti-Matter Bomber Cannons; Heavy Mortar-type Battleship Turrets and last but not least previously mentioned missile/torpedo-type weapons. In chronological order, the missile/torpedo-type weapons are by now the most frequent used weapons next to the beam cannons, which might hint to further developments from the Cult of Technology on that topic. The Cult of Technology equivalent to our sirian ANC-2 "Nova" Antimatter Torpedo Launcher is mostly if not exclusively used on Cult of Technology Bomber Drones, which mostly resemble Roc-class bombers. They probably deemed this open-market design as one of the most effective ones and upgraded it for their purposes. These bombers are usually deployed in high amounts, ranging from at least four to up to a dozen. The Nova-like torpedos they use are, apart from a higher payload, not much different from our sirian Novae. The Cult of Technology Heavy Torpedo Launcher is commonly found on their Condor-class Replica Heavy Drones and their Corvo-Class Replica Heavy Drones, usually combined with extremely unforgiving Manticore Lance Beam Turrets. In comparison with the latter, the Heavy Torpedo is dealing nearly no damage to capital ships and they are probably mostly effective against other medium-sized vessels like gunboats and cruisers. Both ship types have been witnessed to launch up to three Heavy Torpedos at max, while their range is rather limited to less than 10K. The Cult of Technology "Titan" Missile Launcher is something we seem to have only encountered during their invasion of the Dublin system in November, 824. This highly dangerous missile launcher proved to be extremely effective against snubcraft as they seemed to have the tracking ability of known cruise disruptors paired with the lethal kinetic payload of gunboat/cruiser anti-snub missiles. VS-0074 only launched them against snubcraft coming too close to itself, so we can assume the range of these monsters is highly limited. Generally, it was a bad idea to charge VS-0074-type Command Carriers regardless of shiptype. The Cult of Technology variant of the sirian Nightmare Ballistic Torpedo poses the greatest threat of all these. So far, only VS-0074-type Command Carriers have been witnessed using these, and hell, they use plenty of them. The first times these were brought to the battlefield, VS-0074 had eight of them mounted, almost perfectly covering the all sides of the Bustard-resembling carrier. In following encounters the amount was reduced to seven and later six launcher silos, while VS-0074 became more dangerous in short-range combat.
