Laser lore/sources

A spot for laser lore/sources for people to supply so that the editors whom make it pretty can put them in.--Koniving1 (talk) 01:07, 29 September 2019 (EDT)

• Bulldog Large Laser - TRO 3026 (reg and revised). Proprietary, built by Bulldog industries for the Bulldog to lower costs by reducing its need to purchase weapons from other companies. The design uses a powerful capacitor to release energy in a krypton gas container. Bulldog has tested other systems, but got their best results from Krypton Gas.

It is worth noting that lasers which use a gas as the medium, in particular Krpton Gas Lasers are horribly energy-inefficient and produce excessive waste heat in real life.

• Cyclops Eye Large Laser - Unique for not requiring a long focusing barrel as many other large lasers produced during the Star League era. It uses a combination of a focused beam of light and a stream of particles to deliver both laser and kinetic energy. Effectively a hybrid of PPC and Large Laser. Overall the performance is comparable to a a laser model from Diverse Optics or Martell. The Drilson entry TRO 3026 (reg and revised) TRO 3039. Also mounted on some models of Wolfhound 1 (Battlepack: The Fourth Succession Wars page 37."
