Quickest Way to Destroy a Hegemon

[dodike]

Or take two Hegemons with EMP and Normal Turrets and Cap 4. Turn around and start shooting on the Gunboat or Transport.

I think OMG Ivan had full Tizona PTrans which did nothing to gunboat powercore. Would work against transport though.

Quickest way?
Get a Keeper or Wild cruiser / battleship.

No?
Then get a Barghest.
Or a PTrans.

I'm not sure Barghest would do the job quicker. PTrans, certainly.

Blarghest with some pulse guns and a nova torpedo rather then SNAC. Splat.
Nova torp blast range is more then enough to take out a Heggie flying straight. Watch out for clever captains realising that a heggie CD fires backwards through or you'll eat your own torps.

hmm... I heard that the CDs can't blow up novas, at least not a single one. can't recall having seen it so far either. Sadly the wiki doesn't seem to have the "hull strength" of the actual torpedo, or whatever it depends on. Also, just for nitpicking: Barghest can mount both. You could however mount two novas, scratch the shield a little bit with the pulses and then instakill it if it doesn't have sufficient armour

Go play the game, within the given limitations. That is how role play games are played. Not by trying to work around those limitations or whining about them.

A CD will detonate any guided ammunition within it's blast radius as far as I'm aware. This includes missiles, mines and also nova torpedos, but not a SNAC bolt. Hull strength of the missile/torpedo is irrelevant, an EMP missile causes a premature detonation instead.
