Daedalus firepower (cira Atlantis Season 3)

[Lord You]

I was watching No Man's Land recently. I counted 20 missiles launched at the Hive ship in the beginning of the battle (this was their entire complement). I also discerned either 6 or 10 rail guns projectile streaks - probably 6 - firing at the hive when Cadwell ordered all the batteries to open fire. Is this the maximum armament of the Daedalus around this time? Did it change at all in the last year?

Not sure, but it would have made no difference. Railguns are impotent against capital ships. If not for the fighter bay scenario, the Daedalus would have been destroyed.

It would probably be superior to 10 railgun emplacements (there are quite a lot on the edge of the bridge platform alone - check high res shots of Siege Part III) but the firing arcs prevent most of them from being fired at the same time.

Railguns do work, just not as well as energy weapons.

Thanks. Got any links to some high-res shots?
