Oppenheimer Energy Lance

by Snerpes

Built with Claude Opus. (WIP) -- The Oppenheimer Energy Lance is a prototype mega weapon capable of annihilating entire bases in a single shot, hence the name. It operates purely on electricity. It has energy discharge options that you select using the built-in HUD, capable of producing anything from a 30 tile radius crater up to a 2000 tile radius one. At maximum charge it draws 36 GW from the grid for 16 seconds, then releases that energy over 5.7 seconds, creating an unstable ball of energy.

at maximum charge it draws 36 GJ/s from the grid

This is called 36 gigawatts (GW).

for 15 seconds

36 gigawatts for 15 seconds is 540 gigajoules (GJ).

Yeah, I know. Pedantic, but people mixing up power and energy drives me up the wall like nothing else.

You are right indeed, I thank you for that correction.
