Helios 'Forge' Industrial Plasma Cutter
Heavy industrial plasma tool; cuts ship hulls and personnel with equal facility.
The 'Forge' is Helios Foundry's premier industrial plasma cutter, a heavy tool designed for shipyard work, Asteroid mining, and heavy salvage operations. Its plasma output is sufficient to slice through capital-ship hull plating, and when directed at personnel, the results are catastrophic. The Forge's industrial pedigree means it is widely available through legitimate supply channels, and its dual-use nature makes it a favourite of warlords and pirate crews who cannot obtain purpose-built heavy weapons. Its extreme thermal output and power consumption demand heavy charge cells and mandatory cooling cycles, but in the hands of a crew willing to maintain it, the Forge is a formidable weapon of war.
