DESCRIPTION: A Chrono-Cannon - a weapon VERY MUCH inspired by Command & Conquer: Red Alert's Chrono-based weaponry. Primary Fire: The cannon fires a continuous stream of short-ranged Chrono energy that progressively slows down targets until they come to a complete halt. Once they stop moving, the cannon starts to teleport the target's matter into oblivion. This process takes time, so the wielder and target are both open to attack. Another unique feature about this Chrono-stream is that it could stop bullets and other projectiles in mid-flight, giving wielders a slight grace-period for running away from open-fire (finally, an escape from the Rocket Launcher's mortar lock-on!). Fire Modes: 1) As mentioned above - Time-Lag Mode slows down targets and other miscellanious projectiles. 2) This is the other unique feature of the weapon - Time-Acceleration Mode. Instead of firing a Chrono-stream that slows down targets, this fire mode accelerates their movement, making it perfect for advancing the wielder's allies forward. It also accelerates the timers on grenades, making them explode prematurely. Clip Capacity: Please give suggestions! Secondary Fire: The cannon teleports its wielder to the location pointed by the target cursor. Be warned, though, that this process momentarily stuns the cannon-wielder - the longer the distance travelled, the longer the stun. SPECIAL FIRE: Pressing the Special fire creates a distortion in the time fabric at the targeted point. This distortion can be charged up with the Primary fire to open up a portal, but as all Chrono-based abilities go, the process takes time. The Fire Modes also give different resulting portals: 1. If the distortion is charged up with Time-Lagging Energy, the resulting portal rapidly collapses into a vortex which sucks in anything in close-proximity, including the cannon-wielder. This vortex collapses rather quickly, so other players far enough from the vortex may survive the ordeal. 2. If the distortion is charged up with Time-Accelerating Energy, the resulting warp portal may bring forth the cannon-wielder's allies to support him/her in case s/he is outnumbered by enemy forces. For flexibility and tactical use, all allies are prompted if they want to be warped to the cannon-wielder's position once a warp portal is opened. |

Sounds like a good antitank weapon... however it would not work unless strapped to a tank or car... with some adjustments this would make a great weapon. Raziel P.S imagine that gun strapped onto to the Leviathan (spelled right?) when it goes into artillery mode |
