[edit] Food
About the Notes: This is not entirely correct. The Eye destroys NOT the food on your own bases, BUT it destroys the food in your own Pods (sometimes you get a note sometimes not), if the Food-Pod is still in orbit and reach of the Eye at the end of the turn. Hint: Can be used to "resupply" your Instru-Strike-Fleet, if far away from "home". RoboDoc 13:04, 29 March 2006 (CEST)
I suppose it will also destroy food onboard Robot ship as well ?

Never seen that to happen, but I very seldom use ships to transport food. I know for sure that no food will be destroyed, if you use a Pawn to convert food to supply with active command codes BUF and BDS.

How many Eye of Madagon is needed to destroy near 100% of the food in range in one turn ?
formula is (1-(0.7 ^(Number of Eyes)))*100 = % food destroyed.
food destroyed in % = x
number of eyes = ln(1-x/100)/ln(0,7)
Has this been tested in conjunction with Omega Pulse? Assumably, the full range would be in effect for food destruction, not the limited 80 LY for bases protected with shields.
Thus for 80 % food destroyed you need 5 (4,51) eyes and for 90 % food destroyed you need 6 (6,456) eyes. 13 (12,91) eyes will kill 99% of the food in one turn.
i dont get it, 4,510 eyes? or 4.51 eyes? is that a comma or a decimal point? trying to avoid the math here. --protomatter 05:09, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
4 Eyes destroy about 66% of Food within range.
5 Eyes destroy about 75% of Food within range.
7 Eyes destroy about 88% of Food within range.
10 Eyes destroy about 96% of Food.
13 Eyes destroy about 99% of Food.
16 Eyes destroy about 99.5% of Food.
26 Eyes destroy about 99.9% of Food.

Your values are wrong. You did not used the formula I posted. Or did you run sims for the values--Sebastian 11:28, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
I didn't use a formula. The Eyes process one at a time, the first destroying 30%, the second destroying 30% of the remaining, etc. I simply kept multiplying the remaining Food by 0.7 for each additional Eye. Amaranthine 15:24, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
If is calc 0.7*0.7*0.7*0.7 = 0.2401 times food remaining and thus the eye destroys 76% of the fodd destroyed. My (very complex) formula gives the same results.--Sebastian 18:39, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
I was simply rounding for the first two (ie 4 Eyes destroys 2/3 of Food, 5 Eyes destroys 3/4 of Food). --Amaranthine 22:28, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Kills Amorphous Worms out to a range of 250ly
Any numbers on this ability ?
Lord Lancelot 03:15, 27 March 2007 (UTC)
I've recently found that one of them kills 50% in an enemies base (atleast at low numbers, dont know if there is a cap like food) it also does no harm to amorphs in your own bases.
