Gauss Cannon (Ship Module; Weapons)

''Utilizing every known method of accelerating a projectile without generating heat, the Gauss cannon is a huge, long range stand-off weapon that deals heavy damage. It is a multi-stage magnetic coil / subspace coil accelerator deice that fires an inert projectile with so much force that it will punch through just about anything and keep moving. However, energy shields can stop this weapon, limiting its usefulness relative to advanced cannon weaponry.''
