Citizen DeadJohnny is right about the rotting cows on the exterior armor!! Then armor piercing cows would be great, but the ennemy could then counter this with Starbuck Ademanticow Armor...
Then we need new missile tech tree : Genetically enhanced CyberCow Missiles Mark III
This would be the motherload! (Again with the mothers...Damned aliens) The genetically enhanced cows would kill any scavengers trying to eat them.
Actually, we could have a race that would base all their tech tree on cows!
Exemples :
For bonus of population morale : Cow philosophy; a mutation of hindu religion where they replaced the meditation "Ummmmm" by a meditation "Moooo", Hence the expression : "calm as hindu cows"!
For Propulsion Technologie : Cow Fusion; by fusing 2 cows, u create energy and methane. The Energy will provide movement and the methane will be used as afterburners.
Stealth : Cowardise; by disguising as cows, agents can infiltrate a lot easier any ennemy planet, but there is the penalty that they may get slaughtered for their meat.
And just an added bonus for the Cow mass Driver : when u use them, u get a bonus health and moral on all your planets. Why you ask? Simple I answer! Cause less cows on your planets means less farts, less farts means lesser global warming effects (It is a true fact that the farts of cows are part of the equation to the global warming of our planet), hence the envirenmentalists will be happy. Also, less cows, means more place for population.
There is a security penalty though, more terrorist activities from animal groups activists like peta, but hey! What can you do, right?
Anyway... I think I went too far now.
P.S. Citizen FuzzyMatrix, yes it is true that my name is reminescent of this great 70"s french canadian children show Passe-Partout, but I only took this name to give an insight of my farmer origins.... To think of it, I don't have anybody in my family who are farmers.... Then I guess I chose this name cause I didn't know what to call myself!
I'm gonna take another cup of cofee now.
