The BoJ was taken out by using momentum to carry the warheads into his path. Andromeda is better than a lot of series/movies about it but even they have some major FUBAR in that area. Look at "SlipFighters the Dogs of War" with fighters dogfighting like they were in the atmosphere.kojikun wrote:Andromeda tends to exhibit some understanding of inertia. we frequently see the ship to flips and such (atleast in season 1)

I'd like ground combat that has something like modern military technology in it. Its not very often that you encounter stuff like THEL, SADARM , WAM or a million other things we have today in Sci Fi.
Instead we get stuff like Genosis. Cool battle but the application of modern designs with that tech level would have been a lot better.
