Xeneth Cannon

The Xeneth Cannon is a revolutionary step in Anti-Neutron technology by Motoyoshi Fleet Yards inspired by the Subspace-Encased Anti-Neutron Turret on the Ascendancy-class Flagship and technologies gained from the Sfrarabla Mishhuvurthyar Xhrafuklurp (SMX). The design is to make its debut as the main forward facing cannon on the Ayana-Class Escort in YE 30.

About the Xeneth Cannon

The Energy Conversion Method is used to create Anti-Neutrons from the ship's primary power systems. Anti-neutrons are then stored in large internally shielded tanks located on the outer edges of the Main Cannon Control Room.The Anti-neutrons are then encased in a subspace field similar to that utilized in Subspace-Encased Positron Tunneling Cannons.

There are two discharge modes for the cannon:

Pulse Mode

The pulse mode for the Xeneth Cannon:

  • Purpose: Anti-Starship
  • Damage Rating (Version 3): Tier 11. Shears through spatial distortion shielding.
  • Range: 1 AU.
  • Rate of Fire: 3 Pulses per second.
  • Payload Subspace field generator has to recalibrate once every 10,000 pulses for 30 seconds. Effectively unlimited, so long as the ship provides power.

  • Purpose: Anti-Starship
  • Damage Rating (Version 3): Tier 12. Shears through spatial distortion shielding.
