@Isaac
Unless I can persuade SUSTIC otherwise using my mod influence, it appears that you're either going to have to rework the app or... *sniff* have it deleted.
But even if Cygnus does not see the light of day (or the light of the moon and stars), I can still work on Trista's past effectively with or without him.

Smash through the blocks that bar your way; No time for fear, just let it all fall away; Nobody believes in me and you, Just look at the way they stare; So what if we live in a walled garden, As long as I've got you then I don't care!

@Wriggle

If the "bullets" are fired at the speed a human eye can see, it might work.

Sad Pandaaa oh wait I got it.

*Math Wriggle transformation! (I used to do a lot of math in AtWaG.)

I might need confirmation from our resident gun expert, Pringles, but this is what I was thinking.

Sebastian Junger, in his non-fiction war documentary novel War says that with peak reaction speed, it is possible to literally dodge a bullet fired to the head at a distance of 800 yards, as it takes quarter of a second to register the tracer, another quarter to order your muscles to move, and half a second to actually dodge. That takes into account that the rifle bullet travels at 800 yards, or 2400 feet per second.

Since potential battles in TSU will not take more than 100 yards for a battleground, (even less, honestly) the bullets Cygnus fires has to be significantly slower. Following the ratio, the magic bullets (Astra, as I call it) will have to travel at 100 yards per second, about 200 miles per hour, or if you are metrically inclined, 89.4 meters per second. Since rifle bullets weigh from 1.3 to 3.9 grams, each bullets only has the Kinetic Energy of 5.2 to 15.6 Joules.

This is huge. What could normally shred through human flesh now can't even poke a hole through a paper.

Or I could attempt to convince SUSTIC to permit Cygnus' Astral firearms to be usable. But SUSTIC isn't here so I can't talk to him.
