==Electrolaser== | |||
This type of weapons are use by [[Banished]] in [[Battle for Zeta Halo]] such as [[Sicatt Workshop shock rifle]] and [[Sicatt Workshop Disruptor]]. These weapon emits a laser beam into the air. The laser beam then rapidly heats and ionizes surrounding gases to form plasma. The plasma forms an electrically conductive plasma channel. The only drawback is that the laser-induced plasma channel relies on ionization, gas must exist between the electrolaser weapon and its target. | |||

The Covenant also uses accelerated particles as weaponry, such as the devastating capital ship mounted [[energy projector]] and the infantry [[Type-50 particle beam rifle]]. These weapons use charged or neutral particles and may appear similar to lasers though the differences are extensive. Though humans have an understanding of accelerated particle technology they have not yet used it for weaponry. | The Covenant also uses accelerated particles as weaponry, such as the devastating capital ship mounted [[energy projector]] and the infantry [[Type-50 particle beam rifle]].
