Summary0015555: of mimes, reprisals, and missiles
Descriptionsent 1 armored warhead and wasted it, alone, on a mime controlled planet just to see what would happen with the wave. AIP at 108 (post detonation), difficulty 7

instant level 3 reprisal.
27 ships, 2 starships

all 27 ships where armored warheads.

I'm reasonably confident this is not intentional, but the below portion certainly is not intended.

save attached, and yes, they generate AIP when they hit me. so cost of that warhead on offense is, in honesty, greater than cost of a nuke, at 84 aip and prolly losing whatever it gets pointed at.

save attached is after wave arrival, it is at one of my northern locations.

already got another missile building if you'd like to repeat my test. :)

Armored warheads do not give salvage to anyone, or at least they shouldn't be.

main reason I used mime was because if something else contributed to that salvage total, it would be reflected in the reprisal wave. sadly, it does not include other ships meaning it was only the warhead. feel free to enjoy the warhead waves tho? :)

For 7.046:

* A Mime throwing back EMP warheads will now use the no-AIP ones.
** And a Mime will no longer throw back Tachyon warheads.

Thanks :)

Armored and Lightning warheads will also no longer be a mime issue due to another change, though I also set their flags such that if they ARE mimed for whatever strange reason, it will use the no-AIP lightning warhead of that mark.
