'''Lightning Cannons''' are ancient [[Archaeotech]] weapons found in the [[Calixis Sector]].{{Fn|1}}
Believed to be of ancient [[Human]] design, they were discovered deep in the vaults of the [[Lathe]] [[Forge World]]s. Though not as powerful as many other devices, they are suitably impressive, especially to native populace and barbarians. Made of ceramics and glass, when triggered a micro-beam of ionizing energies is focused onto the target to create a large electrostatic charge differential between the target and barrel. The longer the trigger is held, the larger the charge created. When released, a powerful bolt of lightning leaps from the gun to the target accompanied by a huge thunderclap.{{Fn|1}}
