Precise and deadly, the Ojet Bimodal Coilgun has been the High Houses' armament of choice since long before humans ever took to the stars. It was designed quite simply as a perfect weapon; it is said that by the time the empire of the Predecessors fell, they had seen no need to install any other weapon on their ships for over a thousand years.
The Ojet fires hyperdense packets of charged particles that disperse as they travel: up close the concentrated bolt pierces armor, while at a distance the ionic spray destabilizes shielding. Together, a ship equipped with these weapons can adjust its damage profile just by changing its engagement range, allowing it to be highly effective against any foe.
