Bab 656: 656 Space Battle

[That's our signal. Thunder Guns begin full bombardment with Antimatter munitions. Wide spacing,  full pattern coverage. I do not want to see that fleet when you finish.] Max ordered. 

Twenty Sets of Thunder Guns began lobbing shells across the expanse of space while the Alliance vessels watched in complete fascination, wondering what the Humans could do against a space-based fleet that could outmaneuver the standard artillery. 

The new munitions were a very different thing than the old ones, though, and they would detonate on proximity, so even if the Klem managed to dodge them, they only had to get within the blast radius to deal damage. 

The first few Klem ships proved incapable of evading the increased speed of these munitions and took direct hits, allowing the shells to punch through their outer chitin with pure brute force before the antimatter explosion tore them apart.
