Source?
I've never heard of this. What is the source? --Scaletail 23:12, 23 March 2008 (CDT)
- I think it's from the War of 3039 book. I have the 3039 preview downloaded from the CBT site, and it has the Listen-Kill missiles detailed in there. Haruspex 01:52, 24 March 2008 (CDT)
- The April 3029 stuff is directly from the game, Crescent Hawks Revenge. I've recently replayed it to squeeze information from it for this wiki. Other than that, L-K missiles are obviously in some official rulebooks which I do not own, but there are plenty of references. L-K is Level 3 rules I am told. Frabby 17:45, 24 March 2008 (CDT)
Clans immune
"Clan units are automatically immune to the effects of Listen-Kill technology." - any idea how's that possible? The Colorful Project 16:58, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
- It says so in the rules. In-universe, I think Clan technology is assumed to include the advanced emission dampening that negates LK missile effect by virtue of its advanced tech level. Frabby 10:27, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Canonicity
I would question whether the LKs are canon at this point. Like many of the technologies released in the Tactical Handbook, it was removed later on, perhaps? ClanWolverine101
- They canonically exist in-universe, there is no doubt about that. However, the in-universe fluff also states that after a short time, an easy refit to 'Mechs negated their effect. They are a moot technology, but do (or did) exist. Much of this is mentioned in the War of 3039 sourcebook. Frabby 10:27, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
