SurgePulse-type Acceleration System
OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION
- Intent: To develop a Commonwealth-compatible SLAM-style booster for Crystal-Fused Ion Engines, offering short-term sublight acceleration for tactical maneuvers, retreats, or strike runs.

- Permissions: N/A
- Primary Source: SLAM | CFIE
- Manufacturer: Imperial Commonwealth of Dosuun
- Affiliation: Imperial Commonwealth of Dosuun
- Market Status: Closed-Market
- Model: CIE-SLAM-X1 “SurgePulse”
- Modularity: Yes
- Production: Minor
- Material:
- Crystadurium-Plated Reinforced Casement
- Fused Ion Capacitor Shell
- Kyromite Crystal Core Channel
- Trine Conductive Matrix
- Nova-Circuit Surge Capacitor
- Crystal-Fused Acceleration Channel: Utilizes Kyromite or Trine-fused conduits to amplify ion discharge velocity without total reactor drain.
- Dual-Mode Functionality:
- Burst Mode: +200–300% acceleration for evasive maneuvers or strike runs
- Escape Mode: Smooth overburn for 15 seconds, ideal for retreat vectors
- Failsafe Magnetic Containment: Prevents backflow during surge events, reducing risk to internal engine arrays
- Heat Redistribution Loop: Reroutes capacitor bleedoff into ship’s thermal management system; required for large craft
- Integrated with Crystal Fused Ion Engines: Designed to synchronize directly with the Skyquake XM, Boreal Type-S, and newer-generation Trine-threaded engine lines
- SLAM-Compatible for Modern Ion Systems: A true successor to the SLAM concept, purpose-built for Crystal-Fused Ion engines
- Perfect for Tactical Combat Boosts: Ideal for bombing runs, strike craft, SIGINT retreats, or escape-and-evasion
- Does Not Require Dedicated Fuel: Uses power rerouted from onboard capacitor banks
- Fast Recharge for Light Craft: Fighters may cycle this multiple times during engagements
- Cooldown is Required: Overuse can cause fusion-core instability or damage to heat sinks
- Requires Careful Reactor Tuning: Ships with poor energy management may overload key systems
- Ineffective in Hyperspace: Boost applies only to sublight vectors
- Not Stealth-Compatible: Boost signature is bright, loud, and extremely visible on sensors
- Engine Integration Mandatory: Not a plug-and-play device; requires dedicated tuning to Crystal-Fused lines
The SurgePulse-S Sublight Acceleration Module, codenamed “Surge Cell,” is the natural evolution of the old SLAM technology, reborn within the Commonwealth’s line of Crystal-Fused Ion Engines.
Rather than using additional fuel or volatile overdrives, the SurgePulse-S leverages Kyromite-fused conduits and Trine-threaded capacitors to briefly overclock an ion engine’s thrust chambers. This allows starships to surge forward with sudden bursts of speed—crucial for evasive maneuvers, hit-and-run attacks, or retreat vectors from dangerous zones.
When paired with the Skyquake XM or its any of the Commonwealth’s family of crystal ion engines, the Surge Cell becomes an invaluable part of any pilot’s tactical kit. It’s not always about hitting harder—but moving faster than anyone expects.
