Project Notes

This is the Orblac, which is short for Orbital Laser Cannon. Its name tells what it is XP At 100% charge, it can fire 100 minimum-power shots. One minimum-power laser shot is about 2 feet in diameter, lasts a hundredth of a second and can kill a soldier or burn through the hull of a wooden ship. Each shot takes 1% of the Orblac's charge. Also, the Orblac can use more of its charge to fire biger, more powerful shots. For example, it can take 2% of its charge to fire a shot that is twice as powerful (and twice as big), 3% of its charge to fire a three times as big, three times as powerful blast, etc. BTW, the Orblac charges from solar power and charges 0.25% in one day. Starting in February, I will be renting shots. Take how big in relation to a minimum-power shot you want your shot to be (2x, 3x, 4x, etc.), multiply that by 50, and you have your price in gold bars. This effectively prevents anybody from buying a 100x, maximum-power shot (that uses up the whole charge), as that would cost 5000 GB and I doubt anybody has that much. You can also buy multiple shots in succession. After you have your price for one shot, multiply it by how many shots you want the Orblac to take. The Orblac's rate of fire (how long it takes the Orblac between shots) is about a second.
