Fireworks (v0.03 23:51 3/25/09 GMT)
Ever wanted to celebrate your impending victory, but didn't have anything with enough class? Tired of throwing rocks? Want to see pretty colors in the sky?
Your wait is over!
Newly shipped to Midas from Earth-China*, every hand-made, carefully packed pyrotechnic device will produce hours of enjoyment.
So far, there are two types of rockets and 6+1 colors to choose from.
The six main colors, blue, red, green, white, purple, and yellow, are combined into a seventh "color", rainbow.
There are simple rockets, and then there are also cluster rockets.
Many of our products are far from harmless. Please stay well away from lit pyrotechnics and keep dousing materials handy.
v0.02: Now with added spinning!
These products are best used in a dark setting, such as
Night Forest,
Space Map,
Facing Worlds,
Desert Night, and the like.
Finally, on behalf of Midas and Earth-China, please enjoy our products and buy lots of them.
!Warning!These devices utilize a whole bunch of glows and a whole bunch of particles. You may experience
lots of lag. I'm sorry, but I don't want to reduce the particle count any further because the bursts look too sparse and the streamers get patchy. For the same reason, I don't recommend you give the AI these rockets. They're rather trigger happy.

Author's note:
More will be added with time, but I wanted to see what people thought of it so far. I'm thinking some
fire crackers, catherine's wheels, and other small pyrotechnic devices (50% or so) next.

80% of all fireworks today.
