| Description: | This focusing technology allows for the creation of weaponized plasma forms, which are polarized to “spin” along a horizontal axis. The result plasma focuses its thermal release along a very narrow plane upon contact with the target and achieves a “slicing” effect that penetrates ship armor as if it were not there. This small-barreled weapon has been nicknamed the “War Quoit” by human ship crews. |
