====Game Description====

"Heliotropes developed this heavy ion particle cannon. Its blast is almost as destructive as a solar eruption."

===Tactics===

This is one of only two particle weapons that might be counted as a howitzer, through having WMD. However the damage and range is low enough to make using this weapon unappealing.
