-A solenoid supercharger is a computer-controlled array of [[corp:lazarus:quasicrystals:phyliaus#doresu| phyliaus doresu quasicrystals]] arranged in what could be considered an inside-out form of the [[lorath:technology:subspace_drive:enhanced_drive | Lorath Enhance Subspace Wave Drive]]. Its purpose is to act as an after-market accelerator/compressor, 'supercharging' the particle output from a [[lazarus:substrate#solenoid | substrate solenoid]] such as the [[la-am-g3800]].+A solenoid supercharger is a computer-controlled array of [[materials:quasicrystals:phyliaus#doresu| phyliaus doresu quasicrystals]] arranged in what could be considered an inside-out form of the [[faction:lorath:technology:subspace_drive:enhanced_drive| Lorath Enhance Subspace Wave Drive]].

-Mechanically, it works similarly to the __L__inear __A__cceleration __C__ontrol assembly in kinetic rail cannons, as well as the LACs in plasma weapons and even aetheric equipment. In this case, the G1800 is a direct follow-on from the accelerators found in the [[lorath:weapons:compressed-packet-weapon:compressed_packet_rifle]] - allowing rounds fed through the super-charger to achieve high sub-luminal velocities from otherwise very conventional round velocities (ie, fractions of the speed of light). This extends the effective range and velocity of weapons enormously while widening their operational envelope to include sub to post orbital, lunar-orbital, intrasolar and deep space combat. Importantly, a weapon can be fired without the Solenoid Supercharger engaged, meaning its power drain is only present when the weapon is fired at full capacity.+Mechanically, it works similarly to the __L__inear __A__cceleration __C__ontrol assembly in kinetic rail cannons, as well as the LACs in plasma weapons and even aetheric equipment.

 While normally used to accelerate rounds, it can be used to create a static "anchor point", a vertex at which a round becomes larger and larger in size, often exceeding the diameter of the barrel in question. To do so, the superchargers must be arranged in a radial pattern.  While normally used to accelerate rounds, it can be used to create a static "anchor point", a vertex at which a round becomes larger and larger in size, often exceeding the diameter of the barrel in question.
