Weapon history
- Pulse Laser - an excellent choice for the pilot light fighter or interceptor: powerful, does not require shooting in advance, very convenient for a beginner. But veterans also appreciate the discreet charm of Pulse Laser.
- Empire has always been proud of their heavy guns and powerful thermal, gas-based lasers. But it became necessary to have compact installation of interceptors. Small, shoot, chemical lasers happened to be a solution. It was also decided to make the laser pulse-based. This laser provides a huge peak of power with a very compact size.
- Presented, at the dawn of the Empire, the samples, although being modifications of old technologies, created a furor. Highly valued then as pilots and generals, pulsed lasers began to mass-produce on Corporation "Imperium" enterprises. At the time before the Invasion, new copies were made only for the Imperial Legion military forces.
- However, the market has long been filled with an infinite number of modified lasers. So any mercenary can get a similar device without any problems.
