TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Classification: Energy Cannon, Disruptor, Magnetic Pulse
Size: Very Large
Weight: Heavy
Ammunition Type: Electromagnetic Pulse, Tibanna Gas* [Reactor Core]
Ammunition Capacity: Effectively Unlimited
Reload Speed: Very Fast [Fast, Stutter Fire]
Effective Range: Long Range [Standard, Stutter Fire]
Rate of Fire: Very High [High, Stutter Fire]
Stopping Power: Very High [Extreme, Stutter Fire]

Draws from its own dedicated plasma energy generator.
Plasma is provided via dedicated tibanna gas tubes.
Energy is ionized to create the desired effect.
Utilizes a [SIZE=10pt]Sianium[/SIZE] ‘launch’ core to launch the energy at higher than the average velocity.
Discharge tubes work to capture unnecessary or unwanted charges and works them into the decay chamber.
Internal temperature, pressure, [SIZE=10pt]and[/SIZE] radiation ‘check and control’ systems. Automated system readouts to aid crews in the maintenance of the weapon.
Range finder, targeting system also included along with lock-on holo targeting suite to help crews lead and lock onto targets to ensure weapon effectiveness.
Heuristic data processing for maintenance and weapon efficiency.
The automated weapon charge and reload system.
Capable of 250° firing radius with a 180° firing arc.
Bomblet Generator: Operates like a bomblet generator only instead of drawing from a ship’s reactor it draws from its own power generator and reactor core.
Mag Pulse-Disruptor: Drawing from its own plasma generator, creates a potent plasma disruptor energy ball that then receives an enhanced ionization to develop its mag pulse charge. Leading to a potentially shield disrupting, ship’s weapon disabling cannon.
Stutter-Fire, Arc: Stutter-fire capable with a wide firing radius and firing arc.
Blowback: Due to the [SIZE=10pt]sianium[/SIZE] technology the Eos has there is a chance for blowback due to the crystal. Should the crystal crack/break from overheating, or extreme pressures.
Corrosion: While encased with manganese brass to aid against radiation there is still a chance of radiation and corrosion by radiation.
Range and Size: Unable to target small attack craft such as starfighters or droid fighters. Loses effectiveness beyond [SIZE=10pt]the long-range and unable to target [/SIZE]accurately at close range.
Project Eos started as a fascination with magnetic pulse weaponry. Eos would utilize bomblet generator technology as a base for its cannon. Because disruptor technology is essentially plasma, the idea was to create a plasma disruptor energy generator capable of dispensing near limitless energy.
Bomblet generators draw power from a ship’s reactor core allowing it to fashion potent energy bombs. Eos would essentially function in the same manner, however; instead of drawing directly from the ship's reactor core. It would draw on a plasma energy generator. Plasma would be supplied via [SIZE=10pt]tibanna[/SIZE] gas tubes feeding into the generator itself. The generator or generators have a dedicated reactor in order to ensure that their power remains consistent throughout the battle.
Plasma-disruptor converters along with an ionization chamber work to create that magnetic pulse charge. Discharge capture tubes work to take the unnecessary [SIZE=10pt]charges[/SIZE] and work them into a decay chamber where the charges are safely broken down.
What leaves Eos’s cannon is essentially a ball of disruptive energy that now has a magnetic pulse charge. This is intended to disable a starship, not necessarily destroy it outright, the disruptor portion works to disrupt shield technology. Whilst the magnetic pulse makes [SIZE=10pt]an impact[/SIZE] with hopes of disabling weapon systems.
