Description

Shivan anti-capital ship beam weapon mounted on SJ Sathanas

Veteran Comments

This is the undisputed king of all beam cannons in Freespace 2, beating out the MjolnirBeam and BFGreen. Four of these cannons easily destroy a GTD Hecate in a single shot (Bearbaiting).

Really fun to play with when using cheats. If you force both primaries to this, you can take down an SJ Sathanas in a couple of shots.
