Does anyone know where Mongoose Traveller talks about Nuclear Damper technology? Thanks.

High guard... lists them and their tonnage

You might want to take a look at an article in Signs & Portents 72 that takes a more in-depth look into nuclear dampers and, ultimately disintegrator technology - the ultimate extension of nuclear dampers.

Thanks, on my way to download that now!

Enjoy the bit about disintegrator therapy - a medical procedure I created for the Medic! article in S&P 63 and 64. I feel particularly proud of that one, because nobody ever bothered to ask me about the disintegrator booths.

"Erm, excuse me, what about the disintegrator booths? Actually, what disintegrator booths?" I hear someone ask ... in my voice ...

You mean, nobody ever thought of, say, having your society's lawmen shoving a condemned miscreant into a disintegrator therapy machine, strapped down, and turning the knob all the way up, set to take out all of the poor guy's carbon atoms?

Or perhaps putting a hapless soul into a damper box and subjecting him to a barrage of low-level radiation that gets amplified into a lethal dose that won't harm anybody outside the box?

I'm shocked.

I had no idea I was the only one who could think that way.

Apparently Mafia can too :roll:

Worked on a tire 'disintegration' project once (well - made a fine powder of things - not like they disappeared or changed atomic form) - till the 'marketing' buddy of the entrepreneur I was working with came up with 'the perfect clients' (he had screwed up a potential deal with Harrison Ford - who was interested in recycling for fence posts - and this was his idea of 'making up for it'!). Project completely floundered after I left...

But we of Imeniar Seven are at WAR with those vile miscreants of Venticore! If we don't use the disintegrator booths we will have REAL war. Think of all the destruction!
