Radio Weapons

&nbsp "RADIO WEAPONS" refer to multiple innovations in military weaponry that were given code names for men involved in the first days of wireless communication with the two most notable being the Marconi Bomb and the Tesla Payload.

MARCONI BOMB: A large grenade issued to soldiers or corporate mercenaries where deadly force is discouraged or in an effort to disrupt opposition communications. The Marconi bomb is capable of disrupting the motors and circuits of powered armor as well as disrupting most forms of communications, including (for no known reason) Q-Net communications, but only within a 10-15 radius of the explosion.

TESLA PAYLOAD: The Tesla Payload is a large bomb built to create an EMP over one million square mile area lasting for one to four weeks if deployed in atmosphere. Detonated in space, the Payload's effects linger for significantly longer. A small test-detonation by the Krupp Technical Branch of the Keppington Munitions Corporation (funded by the Sylva Corporation) beyond lunar orbit maintained its disruptive qualities for fourteen months.
