Doomsday devices are extremely powerful weapons mounted on Titans. They deal 2 million points of racial type damage to a single target while using up 50 thousand units of the racial isotope to do so. | Doomsday devices are extremely powerful weapons mounted on Titans. They deal 2 million points of racial type damage to a single target while using up 50 thousand units of the racial isotope to do so. They also have several drawbacks such preventing the titan from using a warp or jump drive for ten minutes after using the doomsday. | ||

=====Beam Laser Turrets===== | =====Beam Laser Turrets===== | ||
Long range Laser Turrets. They have the highest damage potential and best tracking but the least effective range than other long-range weapon systems. | Long range Laser Turrets. They have the highest damage potential and best tracking but the least effective range than other long-range weapon systems. They have the steepest fitting requirements of any weapon system, and will thus normally be fitted only on Amarr ships, although the smaller beam lasers are much easier to mount. | ||

They have very good tracking and offer a flexible engagement range at the cost of DPS. Due to their versatility and low fitting requirements they will often be mounted on non-Minmatar ships. | ||

Long range projectile turrets. They have the highest volley damage but the poorest tracking of all long-range weapon systems. | Long range projectile turrets. They have the highest volley damage but the poorest tracking of all long-range weapon systems. They have the second-highest fitting requirements after beam lasers and are thus rarely found on non-Minmatar ships. | ||
====Missile Launchers==== | ====Missile Launchers==== | ||
Missile launchers are the primary weapon of the Caldari. | Missile launchers are the primary weapon of the Caldari. Unlike turret-based weapon systems missile launchers have low powergrid needs but high CPU requirements. Man ships don't have enough turret hardpoints to fill a full rack of their preferred turret weapon, but will instead have launcher hardpoints. | ||
=====" | ====="Short-Range" Launchers===== | ||
"Short-range" bays refers to missile launchers using the short-range, high damage missiles, namely rocket launchers, heavy assault launchers, siege launchers and citadel torpedo launchers, as well as Assault Launchers. Except for rocket launchers, these short-ranged launchers have higher PG and CPU needs than their long-ranged counterparts (in contrast, long-ranged turrets have steeper fitting needs than their short-ranged counterparts). Assault launchers are a special case - they are cruiser-sized missiles bays that use light missiles. These launchers have significantly lower fitting needs than any other cruiser-sized weapon system, allowing more resources for other needs. | |||
===== | ====="Long-Range" Launchers===== | ||
"Long-range" launchers refers to missile launchers using the long-range, low damage missiles, namely standard launchers, heavy launchers, crusie launchers, and citadel cruise launchers. Except for Standard Launchers, these launchers have lower fitting needs than their close-ranged counterparts. | |||
