Talk:Railgun

Let's give these weapons some credit. They do some damage... wraith ships are just so damn massive. Ori shields are impenetrable by almost every known type of weapon (save Asgard beams and possibly drones). The Odyssey wasn't fully battle-ready in Off The Grid and distributed its fire between THREE Ha'taks, which would reduce their effectiveness. In that case, Odyssey merely severed as a distraction to keep the Ha'taks from destroying Ba'al's ship. In the defense of Icarus Base, we never really saw them being used except for five seconds. They probably worked well against gliders as they did against darts. It's not that they're ineffective against unshielded ships... it was the evasive maneuvers such smaller craft enact that makes them hard to destroy... not the weapons in question. Railguns are pretty powerful considered... they just have mainly been shown in use against the Wraith... and even the Ancients had a heck of a time destroying Wraith ships. —Anubis 10545 (talk) (Contribs) 08:30, February 21, 2010 (UTC)
