Lightning Arc

A Lightning Arc is a Necron starship weapon system that is mounted on all known classes of Necron vessel known to the Imperium. Commonly mounted in batteries, Lightning Arcs use stored solar energy and, when activated, release it as a forest of living energy tendrils which envelop targets and probing for weaknesses. Lightning Arcs act as the main weapon batteries for Necron ships, but are different from other race equivalents in that the arcs they fire are able to split up and guide themselves into their own targets, allowing for a mass-strike ability like no other. A Lightning Arc battery is usually able to cover all angles of approach except for the rear.
