You might also want to consider placing Imperial biogenics weapons in there. It is kind of a stretch, but the Krytos Virus and the Emperor's Plague might both be considered superweapons.

There are four chairs but apparently only one person is needed to run the entire ship. I don't know about you but I don't trust a single person (or even four) with a weapon capable of destroying a solar system.

c'mon now guys, you had to admit the GAlaxy gun is the most effective out of all of them, you could build 3 or 4 of them for the same price as maybe 20 or 30 stardestroyers, well worth it.

Imagine 4 of those guys deployed into an enemy galaxy?

If you fired just 1 missle every hour, you could destroy 96 planets in 1 day,


disgusting eh?

But the problem with the Galaxy gun is that you can only destroy an entire solar system with it. What if you wanted to destroy a planet, but wanted to preserve a particularly nice looking crystal formation elsewhere in the solar system? If you used the galaxy gun, sure you'd pretty much destroy the planet, but you'd stuff up your crystals too.

Killing all humans (100% fatal, aerosol transmission, no cure in SW), or killing all non-humans (apparently 100% fatal, aerosol).

Not quite Ossus(Get an avatar!)
The HUMAN Plauge is 100% Effective Roughly 1 min 20 seconds to kill a fully grown male adult, Only kills Humans and is aersoal. Liquid whatever its highly resitant to being damaged by the Enviroment

No none cure
Also there is a Second Version of the Virus just like the first but timed to incubate exactly one month then kill the victum and also that person at every stage is contagious

Second the Kytos virus is NOT Aerosal, Infact it was a failure which got Derructe to be landed in Prison along with Corran, It is only effective in six specises but kills them in less than a two weeks time and VERY painfuly with the only cure being Bacta but massive amounts of it
The Virus was unfisnished one of the reasons why it failed

There is however the Death-seed plauge which is gone deep into depth in the Planet of Twilight and from my understanding has cleared entire planets with a 100% Fataility rating in under a month

sorry you got them mixed up, the Sun Crusher is the one that destroyed entire solar systems, the galaxy gun can destroy, planets, starbases, doesn't matter, it can target anything

the way I reasoned 96 planets a day is each gun fires a missle every hour, all day

24x4 = 96

whoops, I meant sun crusher. If you replace "galaxy gun" with "sun crusher", that whole thing might make a bit more sense.

Since you're arguing for SW, I'm going to argue against. ;)

There's no telling how many missiles there were in existence. The Emperor really only needed about a dozen. Spend half of them making the point. Then, as long as the gun is loaded, who's gonna go up against you?

My point is that we IMHO don't have any proof that the Empire ever had more than, say, 12 torpedoes.

...and, before you quote me on that, I meant "Galaxy Gun torpedoes", not proton torps. :)
