>>5216864>>5216922I suggest using the phrase "Accelerator" weapons since that's how 40k differentiates between that and Necron Guass.
Also, using Magnetic Acceleration to launch plasma at superior ranges, speed and amor punching? There is in fact, a 40k example of that.
Our favorite blue aliens do it as their standard weapon of choice.
But, nothing stops us from doing it 10,000 years ahead of them and proving that we are every bit as smart as them. And doing it better than they ever could. Maybe even
making our own fast moving battle suits, to bridge the gap between Knights and Men and give our skitarii some armor capability.
