BOMBARD BOMB BOMBARDMENT

[:: Legends Of The Jedi ::]

Bombing a planet will unleash missiles, torpedoes, or rockets on the surface of
the planet, causing significant damage to characters and ships on the ground.
Players and ships can be destroyed by this, so you must have valid IC reasons
for carrying out any bombardment.

For each projectile landed on a planet, the military presence of the bombarding
clan will increase and the military presence of the existing government (if
owned by a different clan) will be reduced. Public opinion of those committing
the bombardment will decrease substantially. The impact is greatest on the
target planet, but all planets in the galaxy will hear of the act and will have
a less favorable opinion of the attacking clan afterward.

When used in conjuction with a blockade, bombardment provides the fastest way
to gain military presence on a planet.

Syntax: bomb <planet> <projectile type>

This command allows an individual ship to bomb a planet with a projectile of
their choice. It must be used from a corvette or smaller with at least 65
maneuverability. The type of projectile determines how much damage the
projectile causes, but all types cause the same impact on public support and
military presence.

Syntax: battlegroup bombard <planet>

Used from the bridge of a cruiser or larger from orbit of a planet, this will
signal all ships in the battlegroup and all of this ship's launched squadrons
to bombard the planet as long as they are also in orbit.
