Who are we going to be fighting? Klingons?

Kinetic bombardment

re: #68 KGxvi

I thought that’s what ICBMs are for?

Drop a tungsten rod from orbit and it’s a nuke-level explosion with yield corresponding to mass but no fallout or burning.

In an era where human capital has very little worth but material resources are increasing in value, it’s the perfect weapon.
