I was thinking about how the "main stream" sci-fi shows have the magical starships with their fancy weapons and that's great but I think if they want to show how war will be fought in space they should know,a good general studies strategy but a great general studies logistics. The first thing that would happen in a war in space is we'd start throwing rocks around. Asteroids. That's how you get the party started. Then nukes. Then the fancy weapons would be used to get rid of those last few pockets of resistance. Fancy weapons fry with excessive use. Metal parts warp out of shape. moving parts jam. We'd use them sparingly. Rocks in space are free. And all they need is a good nudge in the right direction to do heavy damage. Then Nukes are pre-made and destructive. More expensive than rocks but cheaper than lasers or particle cannons. Especially cheaper than fancy main stream sci-fi starship weaponry. So that's my humble opinion, what do you think?
