Ongoing research has lead to increasingly effective methods of generating, storing, and releasing electrical power. Thor's Hammer is the logical outgrowth of this technology, a weapon that is, in effect, directed lightning. While generating such a large electric arc is a relatively trivial task for colonial technology, targeting it in a useful way is quite another. Eden has developed a method that uses a particle accelerator to produce a "pilot" beam that guides the bolt to its target. The result is a devastatingly destructive weapon against which there is little defense.

Operational Notes: Thor's Hammer discharges high-voltage electricity into its target. NOTE: This weapon is available only to Eden.
