Tech: Ion Cannon

Ion Cannon
Prerequisites: Ionic Weaponry Theory
Research Cost: Pending
Description
An ion cannon is a weapon which fires highly ionized particles or highly ionized plasma.
The Ion particles seriously interfere with the operation of electronics and computer systems, shorting circuits and often disabling them outright, in much the same manner as an electromagnetic pulse. The actual physical damage will sometimes result in fused joints on machines, due to the heat produced.
