This weapons huge range combined with the compression effect removing all cover makes for one devastation addition to your Algoryn forces!
Compression weapons use compression field technology to quantum reduce everything within a narrow field projected by the weapon – effectively scrunching matter to nothing. As with other compression weapons, the compression cannon doesn’t function at very short ranges and its effectiveness drops off very quickly over long range.
The chief advantages of the compression weapon compared to plasma equivalents are its effectiveness against close targets – so long as they don’t come within the weapon’s limited compression range – and its ability to compress any cover the target is taking advantage of. As with all larger compression weapons it can suffer from momentary field collapse but that’s a minor issue when you can crush all before you!
Full rules can be found in the Beyond the Gates of Antares supplement The Battle For Xilos on page 83
