Project Shinigami: entry one

That which reaps all things, that which strikes faster then light itself. It comes for you, the god of death.

Well that work was exhausting. But the first prototype is finished!

Shinigami is my first real attempt with heavy weapons. Taking the 'Scythe ll' Reaper of Sirius heavy Tachyon cannon and pretty much making a mini version. Well I say "mini" but it's still to large to use as anything other then a vehicle or bunker mounted weapon. But what can it do? Well, it has a comparable hit that it's big brother has. Which is to say, it's a lot weaker, but it's also that much smaller. Downside is, it's firing rate went down a bit. From 3.03 shots per second to 2.03. While the loss on the refire is regrettable, it isn't the end of the world. The cannon still punches through most light armor assets, and deals decent damage to medium and heavy armored vehicles. Yes it's gonna take a few salvos to bring down a Hovertank, but it's better then some of the other weapons at our disposal.

Energy costs alone make usage by infantry units impossible. Unless set up like a heavy machine gun emplacement. However, it preforms very well on power armor reactors. So the goal was a resounding success there. But it also works on regular combat vehicles as well.

The cost to make a Shinigami is around 600,000 credits. Much lower then my side arms I know, but the materials for this weapon is cheaper to come by.
