Game Description

“Very little is known about these exotic, dark-matter weapons. The Order of Penitence uses these weapons in their ships.”

Tactics

These are the only “dark” weapons in the game at present (1.01). Despite this, they are extremely underpowered, for all they are about the only thing that can scratch Hierosteel armor. By the time these come up, they are amazingly forgettable. Avoid using, if at all possible.
