Mega Missile

Stand back when you fire this earthshaker. ---Descent Manual description

The Mega Missile is the fifth type of missile in Descent and Descent II. The player can have a maximum of 5. When fired, the missile launches straight from the ship. Upon detonation, an explosive wave instantly destroys any weak robots and devastates the stronger ones. The damage this missile causes is so high that it will also drain the player's ship if caught in the blast radius. This missile is ideal for crowd control and dealing massive damage to bosses. The missiles come as single but are quite rare in the mines.
