Wondering if there is a weapon guide describing the effects of all the weapons in the game (the automated female voice gives less than sufficient info) and if someone can post a link to it.

If there is no guide, is there a major difference between beta/alpha/gamma versions of the same weapon besides power?

Unfortunately roguey's info lack a critical stat when choosing a weapon, the shot velocity. I recommend this chart http://www.hentschke-keramik.de/rmh/x3_weapons.xls

That chart is inaccurate (e.g. Flak ranges are wrong). Try mine. The stats were verified with the values shown in the game files with the X3 Editor.

Is there a chart that shows the value used for OOS combat calculations?

Or, is it one of the values on the charts just posted?

Should be able to use that chart. From what I understand, OOS considers weapon range and damage per second, and every shot hits 100% of the time. More likely the damage per second is more important, though, seeing as how lasertowers suck so bad OOS.

This thread sounds like a good time to dust off my Dummies guide to X weapons-


Red/ Orange - Stop it! That tickles! (Impulse ray emitors)
Blue- Ow! that stings! (Particle accelerator cannon)
Green- Ah! it burns it burns! (High energy plasma thrower)
White- And i'm Dead. (Photon pulse cannon)

Loud- Run away run away! Damn too late. Dead. (Flak Artilary array)
Quiet- It's like being nibbled to death by Piranha! (Mass driver)
