11.15 Auto-Destruct Systems

Rather simple really. If the three necessary codes are given correctly for autodestruct, the EPS conduits automatically flush themselves clean and then carry quantite from the main tanks throughout the ship; once detonation time is reached, the magnetic carry fields send a pulse of plasma through the conduits and...BOOM. End of story. Approximate energy release via this method is the equivalent of 1500 photon torpedoes.

Secondary system consists of blowing up every internal torpedo, including verteron and graviton systems; if the resultant energy blast does not vaporize the spaceframe, the energy pulses will render any leftovers completely inert.
