Originating in the tech which powered the DC-15LE and made it such a deadly and versatile weapon, the forges and engineers of the Rim-Guard Order were tasked with developing a new kind of weapon with much more intelligent ammunition. Under the guidance of Aurelian Sigismund, the Lancer Blaster was created.
Now going into its second generation, the Lancers are more deadly and more robust than ever. Providing a serious weapon of choice for heavy infantry and shock troops equally, but also ships and tanks. A heavy cannon developed to be used on large tanks or warships is complementing the imperial arsenal.
The Heavy Lancer Cannon offer two firing modes, a standard mode designed for usual combat engagements in space and a rapid firing mode meant for close combat and possibly urban combat as well, dissolving armor and concrete equally with a high flurry of shots.
