Technology:Helions

Introduction

The Helion space league is moderately advanced, and they use that to give them an advantage in battle with various races, like the Mikar'Kalan. The Helions and their ships are highly resistant to e.m.p.

Power sources
In a pinch, the Helions themselves can power things for a period of time, but they have developed more potent sources of energy.

Disruption shield
Helion shields are made of contained intense e.m. fields and ion based energy that wrap a ship or station in a protective barrior. The shield can disrupt the targeting systems of many weapons making the weapon miss, and/or reduce the effectiveness of the weapon itself. With directed energy weapons, its intense e.m field and ion fields can break apart the concentrated particle or energy bonds, or even disrupt or deflect the magnetic containment shells of plasma weapons. When that occurs, the shield has done its job, and minimal energy is left over for the shield/hull too absorb.

Ion arc weapon
Similer to the Coranzat arc weapon, but not as advanced. It is the main energy weapon of the Helion military. It unleashes a powerful discharge of disruptive ions that can bounce from target to target, damaging all. If it hits a Helion vessel, it does no damage and can actually increase in power with its next strike, which the Helion vessel that was hit can direct. The Helions can unite all their power into a massive burst for dealing with larger targets.

Thermo-nuclear missile
An advanced fusion device that derives its power from the fusion of Rubium nuclei, realeasing an uncontrolled burst of energy.

M/A missile
Your basic m/a reaction device.
