(I was wondering if this can also be used for a ground assault with the assistants from a laser guided system (with the help from a ground unit) or used as a teleporter with help from a beacon that can be shot from space. This would help prevent damage to the weapon and make it useful in many different ways.
I was thinking of making guidance technology that would help support weapons such as this one.)
Weapons:
Legacy Cannon (2): Superheavy Transposition Flux Cannon units are mounted at angle on the sides of the battleship. These massive weapon units transpose the space between two points, causing the space-time continuum of an area to collapse on itself. This weapon is usually not a first choice as it leaves damage to space which can take weeks or even months for the beam area to "heal." The TFC cannot be fired at the same time as the GWB or the DFCs, since they use the same systems. Ships using space-time anchors or dimensional screens are particularly affected by the TFC and are almost guaranteed to be dragged out of existence in about a minute by their anchors, even when not directly in the path of the beam (50,000 miles). Deactivating the T/SA or DS will halt the ship's approach to the rift. A TFC can also be used to generate a 20-mile-wide black hole anywhere within its normal firing range. The legacy units have built in engines and systems, and can be ejected. Each legacy cannon has its own dedicated quantum generator.
Primary Purpose: Anti-starship
Secondary Purpose: Assault
Damage: Total Annihilation over a 20-mile wide area
Range: 20 through 200,000,000 miles (the beam can not hit anything less than 20 miles from the ship)
Rate of Fire: Once every minute.
Payload: Effectively unlimited, so long as the ship provides power.
Legacy Alternate Function: Directed Fold Cannon (2): This powerful weapon distorts space in much the same way as a hyperspace fold generator does. However, the fold cannon instead of warping the target to another location, it warps the target into a star, a black hole, or perhaps each molecule of the target will warp to a different locale. The cannon has a wide variety of alternative uses, such as capturing and moving large quantities of plasma or anti-matter. It is can even be used to transport other vessels and the firing vessel itself safely. The DFC cannot function if the TTD is disabled, except to transport the frigate.
