SPECIAL FEATURES
- Possesses links to attach multiple ELX.1s together for use on ground turrets
Strengths:
- Jack Of All Stats: With only a low rate of fire as a blemish on its combat capabilities, the ELX.1 isn’t overly large or heavy for its power capabilities, and stands as a solid baseline for how a laser cannon should operate in battle.
Weaknesses:
- Corrosion: The weapon’s barrel and parts are primarily made of durasteel, which despite the material’s wide use throughout the galaxy, is susceptible to corrosion and decay if not properly maintained.
DESCRIPTION
Developed to act as a baseline for starfighter and anti-starfighter weaponry produced by EODD, the ELX.1 is a weapon used on a variety of mounts for a variety of reasons. With an on-board link to put two to three of these weapons together they can be used on starfighters, vehicles, or even on defensive ground emplacements to take on fighters and infantry. With a decent range and high-powered bolts the ELX.1 is a reliable weapons system for any situation.
