Particle Weapons are powerful weapons used by the Necrons.[1]
Overview
These weapons emit a stream of tiny anti-matter particles that detonate on contact with other matter, blasting the targets to bits. They are extremely reliable, requiring only enough energy to maintain its containment field which prevents the anti-matter from detonating within the weapon itself.[1]
Types of Particle Weapons
- Particle Caster: A pistol-style weapon used by Triarch Praetorians[2] and Canoptek Wraiths.[2]
- Particle Beamer: Used by Tomb Blades[2b] and Canoptek Spyders[2c]
- Particle Shredder: Used by Triarch Stalkers.[2d]
- Particle Whip: Heavy weapon used by Monoliths[1]
