Science!(RaygunExpanded)

More advanced and more demented minds have come to the fore among the so-called "community" of mad scientists, as previous defeats have forced them to accept that their prior ways of thinking were inherently flawed. Rather than dogmatically eschewing all weaponary except the Suspendium Ray, they have come to accept its limitations and the improvements in effectiveness that can be achieved by employing a variety of high tech weapons to deal with a variety of different situations. While rifles and cannons still feature, they are far outweighed by Suspendium Rays, Suspendium Cannons, Aerial Torpedoes, Clockwork Hussars and the like. The fleet consists of 46 Airships across 7 Tiers, 8 Landships across 4 Tiers, 22 Buildings across 5 Tiers, uses four special resources, and has been updated for the changes in 1.2, the Heroes & Villains DLC and the 2023 Halloween Update.

The Airships consist of:
Nero: As with the stock Raygun fleet, the Nero is a survivable medium-cost ship focusing on the Suspendium Ray, but now with Flak and Gatling Guns for point defence.
Omen: Now the Nero has its own flak, the Omen line is built in a similar fashion, but based on the Suspendium Cannon instead.
Hermes: A relatively cheap Suspendium Ray interceptor, with good speed and altitude (pro tip - a fleet of five of them with a speed-boosting Hero and Cartography can defend a very large area from enemy fleets and most monsters).
Icarus: A pricy ship, but low upkeep. Suspendium Disruptors can be really effective in the right curcumstances. Never leave home without one!
Oberon: A twin-Suspendium Ray capital ship, also armed with Clockwork Hussars and Guided Missiles.
Poseidon: Who else but the King of the Sea should this Aerial Torpedo craft be named after?
Arachnus: As the name implies, Mech Spiders galore - now including Clockwork Janissaries for extra fun!
Hydra: Because the Acid Spitter is really good now, this close-ranged terror rips through ships like a Suspendium Ray through canvas!

The Landships are as follows:
Perseus: Formerly called "Beamwalker", a Suspendium Ray tank.
Cadmus: Because the Acid Spitter is good against landships and buildings too, this tank is surprisingly effective.

The buildings are as follows:
Janus: The two-faced God of defending your cities with Suspendium Rays.
Charon: A slightly smaller Janus, priced to defend a town.
Persephone: Similar to the Charon, but using explosives instead of piercing damage.
Apollo: The god of the sun brings Clockwork Hussars to defend his lands.
Artemis: The goddess of hunting has chosen to eschew her Bow in favour of Guided Missiles.

The techs have been ordered to repidly develop the Suspendium weapons, get a good start, with a strong economy and research income, and to build a Fleet Academy early for the crew experience bonus. This fleet will also target certain key resources to enhance their power. As the stock Raygun fleet is only available at Hard or harder difficulties, I have changed this to Medium or harder, so everyone can join in the fun.
