Combinatory silicate projectiles
More actions
Combinatory silicate projectiles are a weapon, most well-known for being used in the Battle of Tietero.
History
As of 27 PC, combinatory silicate projectiles have only ever been used by the Caseic Federation, in the Battle of Tietero. Their use resulted in widespread lung disease in Tietero, and aboard the CFS Fromachi II and CFF Jasfeya
Design
Each silicate projectile consists of closely-bundled silicate crystals. Each individual silicate crystal is very small, meaning that if ingested it can cause damage to the internal tissue of the lungs, mouth, or digestive system. When two projectiles collide with one another at high velocity in mid-air, they disperse millions of crystals over the land, causing any population below to be affected by the ensuing health complications.
