Overview

This OXP brings you the Thargoid Ray Laser, the Thargoid Cannon and the Thargoid Plasma Accelerator:

  • Thargoid Ray Laser: A captured Thargoid Weapon, Slightly modified by GalCop. More damage but no self-aiming anymore.
  • Thargoid Cannon: An energy cannon based on a Thargoid Ray Laser.
  • Thargoid Plasma Accelerator: As seen in the Mutabilis and Incursio novels. It can be fired once every 8 seconds.

It is suggested not to fire the Thargoid Plasma Accelerator until the Laser Temperature Bar has cooled all the way back down again, because otherwise it'll take twice as much time to cool.


History

GalCop captured a Thargoid craft in the vicinity of Lave. They successfully examined it and acquired the Thargoid Laser. Later on, they acquired the Thargoid Plasma Accelerator by examining the debris of a Thargoid Mothership.

A few years later, four Thargoid ships were attacking a fleet of 3 Navy vessels: a Behemoth and two Escort Vipers. They successfully destroyed the two Vipers and took out the shields of the Behemoth before transmitting this final message: "Rg ceb shegb abfgen gryn cenrovgv!" This message was later translated by the Research Office of Tianve in exactly 13 days.
