We are currently desining a new ship at the moment it will be able to deploy 160,000 troops via armoured shuttles. It has 2500 emplacements for weapons though it is here we have become stuck.

Each palcement is 7x7 meters with 15meters of available internall space. It is possible to invcrese the sizeof the emplacement to 10x10 and the depth of internall space to 20 meters but this will mean slight increse in the ships size.

The weapon we are looking for must be capable of planetary bombardment and be able to do serious damage to ememie ships. The shear numbers of weapons meens that the weapon does nt have to be very powerfull though it must be able to do some damage.

bump

We suggest our medium plasma cannons. They're small enough to fit into the original spaces, and yet powerful enough to tear most things in space a new one. Some of our very own Raven Units (http://members.cox.net/resicorp/) employ the heavier versions of these weapons.

Details pending.

this sounds perfect, can you please give the specs for both the medium and heavy cannons
