This dangerous weapon, first designed by NovaCorp for the Onslaught Battleship, is created from self replicating nano-bots, that devour anything they come into contact with. It is launched in a special torpedo like casing, designed to penetrate through shields using a variety of effects, including an inbuilt CDD generator, and energy sheathing. The weapon navigates its way going >c using the CDD generator, navigated either by an on board AI, or the launching ships AI, it pierces shields to the best of its ability, and upon hitting the hull dispenses its deadly cargo. Once there goo is spread and crawls across the hole looking for a gap, or penetrates through non-invulnerable armour, growing and spreading through the ship, devouring all the matter it finds to make more of itself. It takes a while to pick up momentum, especially on heavily armoured ships, but is extremely efficient at causing increasing inconvenience, and eventually destruction. It is also very hard to get rid of.

Primary Purpose: Incapacitation and destruction of Starships Secondary Purpose: Anti-planet (will continue to devour a planet until there is nothing left but nano-bots) Damage: Unconventional. Leads to total destruction. Range: 30 LY
