Mobile Tactical High Energy Laser System
Outfitted on most Kaukolastani warships, and mounted on mobile Anti-Aircraft Batteries, as well as with Artillery and Armor units, the MTHELS makes a sharp break with the past. Instead of using highly reactive chemicals to create a laser beam inside a plume of hot gas like existing THEL designs, MTHELS performs its magic inside a special type of glass. Light from a beefed-up flashbulb sends a stream of photons into nine neodymium-doped glass discs. Gaining strength as more light is pumped in, the colorless laser beam bursts out one side of the crystal with enough power to heat steel at 200 yards. Paired with BattleNet, this will allow for close in defense of the Kaukolastani war machine, even against shells and other ballistic weapons.
