Particle Whip

A Particle Whip is a devastating Necron weapon that emits a stream of miniscule anti-matter particles which detonate on contact with other matter. Necron particle weapons are incredibly reliable, needing only enough energy to maintain the containment field that prevents the anti-matter from detonating within the weapon’s mechanisms. A Particle Whip is unusual in that it only comes in the form of a large, glowing power matrix crystal mounted atop a Monolith; a totally different design from the barreled nature that characterises other particle weapons. Nevertheless, a Particle Whip is a dramatic weapon; for when it is about to fire, the Monolith will channel its alien energies through its crystal to unleash devastating arcs of anti-matter lightning. A single ear-splitting discharge from the Particle Whip is enough to reduce tanks to smouldering wrecks and infantry to molecular vapour. The explosions caused by a Particle Whip will often affect large areas and can cause great damage to infantry and vehicles alike, no matter what form of armour they are protected by.
