If you could have any superweapon, what would it be? No Weapons to turn you into God and the like.

Mine would be a mind control beacon that could control entire cities. Then an amplifier to make it a thousand times more powerful.
To quote Yuri from Red Alert 2,
"This amplifier could do to North America what the Beacon did to New York."
In event of war, Nuclear war, that is, a little telephone to the missile silos in America, It would call each of them at once, telling them to launch the missiles but close the silo doors.

I don't want a weapon. What would I do with a weapon? Why would I want one? :)

If you were the leader of a nation, you would want one.

Hmmm, I'm not sure I would. It's a waste of money.

I think that a antion can only be taken seriously be the size and technological advancement of it's millitary. the power to mind-control another nation would be better than a Nuke, and it leaves no pollution, and it doesn't harm the populace, there may be one or two people who can fight the mind control, but they are little in number.

Nonetheless, it's a great waste of resources which could quite easily be deployed elsewhere. The smarter thing to do would be to cultivate a symbiotic relationship with another technologically advanced nation with a powerful military who can be trusted to defend you (and indeed, the whole region) in case of any threat of hostilities. Take Canada for example. When has Canada ever had the need for military spending and weapons? Does Canada even have a military force? Can anyone tell me?

My secret weapon would be an army of 5000 sexy and intelligent women. All nations would fall before us and at last the world would know a little peace.

Anyone want to help me train the new secret weapons?

Maybe-not · Jul 21, 2007, 07:42 pm

My "Super weapon" would be the people. No Government or system can oppress a full scale uprising.

Praxius · Jul 22, 2007, 01:14 am

My weapon would be a batallion of super freaky sex women....

tinybear · Jul 22, 2007, 07:33 am

What if the enemy has female soldiers?

There was a cool weapon during one of the original Star Trek episodes. I can't remember the details, but it was when Kirk, Spock, and the klingons were on a planet of people that were totally submissive and didn't even complain when they were being slaughtered. It drove both Kirk and the klingon commander nuts. Then finally the feds and klings began all out war in space. Then the submissive people finally had enough of the violence and suddenly every weapon became too hot to handle. Even if you tried to punch a klingon your hand would heat up and you would stop immediately from the pain. That was when the sheepy people revealed themselves to be so far advanced from the humans and klingons as they humans to bacteria.

Anyway... that would be my super weapon. The one that makes every weapon too hot to handle.

That'd be one hell of a fight.... mmmmmm.....

Hey, anyone remembers this weapon in the movie "Eraser"?

You can see through and shoot through walls. :)

LtMisha · Jul 25, 2007, 11:52 am

Like a railgun. To answer Tinybear's suggestion to ally yourself with a stronger nation, I would rather have the weapon. People can't be trusted, machines can.
