Plasma Weaponry

Plasma weapons are any weapon that projects gaseous molecules excited to the state of plasma. How this is accomplished may vary from Empire to Empire as certain aspects of construction are taken into account. The biggest consideration taken into account among plasma weapons are heat, and the most notable users of Plasma are the Crescanian Confederacy, and the New Covenant.

The New Covenant Plasma Weapons

Unlike the Confederacy, Plasma weapons on the infantry level are fairly rare, usually kept to specialists among squadrons, though it is possible to field an entire specialist group with such weapons, but they are usually dangerous, though more recent models are safer than older models of plasma weapons, but still have cooling problems. This is made up for the fact the New Covenant Plasma weapons are absolutely devastating, and are effective anti-armor weapons and anti-infantry. These weapons in their larger form can kill enemies just from the heat of the plasma bolt passing by in larger versions. These weapons use magnetism to contain the bolt over the distance until impact with the target. Plasma weapons also include missiles and torpedoes as well that have a Plasma charge.
