The Hi-NRG plasma lance is produced by Connaught, a pioneer in the field of energy weapons and the most advanced battlefield weapon of the 2020s. The weapon apparently loads its rounds automatically, and is only capable of a slow rate of fire without overheating the mechanism. One magazine of plasma can allot 20 shots. Although the weapon is somewhat inaccurate, in practice the large projectile cancels out the distance between shots. Sustained operation can also result in temporary shutdown due to overheating.
