Thermal Lance Superlaser by cKerensky

The Thermal Lance is a superlaser-style weapon designed for ship to ship combat.
The Lance magnetically heats and propels a hyper-hot slag of Iron and Nickel to relativistic speeds, with the impact ravaging the target.

The Thermal Lance Beam requires precise focusing requirements, and the slag itself rapidly slows down outside of magnetic containment, resulting in lower damage over long ranges, but much higher damage at close to point blank.

The Thermal Lance has a maximum range of 8 kilometers, but there is a linear dropoff for max damage from the point the laser is generated. Damage, and Explosion Radius are reduced accordingly.

The Thermal Lance has LOD models, and construction textures, and is paintable.


Uses Meridus_IX / Lucas's excellent energy weapon script (with modifications to support damage falloff), and was balance-tested against the Atlas Superlaser. This weapon does not produce its own ammo, but rather, the ammo is crafted as a Thermal cell.
