Outpost needs more items. Discuss possible ones here. No gimmick crap, real weapons with real stats. Make sure that there is a suitable animation and icon for the new weapon.
I'm pretty sure that the actual cost does not need to be exact to the shop price, but please keep it in a close margin.

I'd like to help. But in order for me to post statistics on a weapon, I'd like to know what the equation is for determining the price.
price = dps * range/2???
I want to be able to make more 1300 range weapons for this game. We are lacking them and death magic is practically unused.
Bring back old Death Magic.

Never mind, I found it.
damage = (4 * gold cost * fire rate * damage factor) / (0.06 * range)
Edit: Sorry, but is this equation accurate? I'm just assuming that damage is just damage per bullet and damage factor to be damage per second.

That's a gimmick. This here thread is for weapons.

These Spears of light would be pretty much the same as the ion cannon, just split into 2 less dmgdealer + 50 more range

it would be a nice idea to vary the range a bit more. 900-100 range is just much to common in bt atm.

@Spears of Light
I was thinking the Dragonhawk rider animation and maybe the brilliance aura icon will fit it well. The new stats are better, the old version was just too similar to light fantastic.

Please reread the OP carefully Battlemaniac, you will see that your suggest was most certainly spam.

it has all the stats in there.
It is an AOE necro aura
range is there
shop cost, which is priced very nicely, as the troop command cost 2500, this one should cost at least double, as it can revive/summon all the dead creeps on the battlefield
the cost is there
there picture is there
what else is missing?
or those who likes to use command center and factories
