Talk:Plasma turret (disambiguation)

What is the difference between plasma turrets and plasma torpedoes??

It sounds to me like what is being reffered to in this article is a Pulse laser turret as they are said to have insect like antena. Another part of the article states: The Plasma Turrent is a powerful Covenant starship weapon. It fires a spear of Plasma and can strike at almost any range, upon contact it causes sever damage to a target and can be used in conjusion with the Plasma torprdos, and Energy Projectors to desamate an entire human fleet. It can also be used to desamate Starfighters and ground forces. The spear of plasma sounds like the modification that cortana made to ascendant justice's plasma turrets in HFS...??? It then continues to state: Before the weapon fires it first has to charge, When the weapon charges, a ball of super heated plasma formes in front of the turrent, then after about 3 seconds it fires outward at its target. From a distance mutable balls of plasma can be seen forming and then streack forward at there targeat almost tracking the ship, and enough shots can destory the vessel. Now they're are saying that it DOSENT fire a spear but a tracking ball of plasma which sounds alot like the plasma torpedo to me... I suggest that there be some kind of merge and cleanup of this article and plasma torpedo. -- 343 Guilty Spark 16:54, 26 November 2006

The "spear of plasma" sounds to me like sphere of plasma, which implies a round circular shape cimilar to a "ball of super heated plasma". You'll note there are several other spelling errors throughout the article, so reading between the lines is necessary. As for the article itself, this sounds like either a pulse turret or a plasma torpedo, but could be justified. From what I can tell, the Covenant plasma torpedo is a tracking ball of plasma that dissipates when the firing ship is destroyed. Now, when the ships at Reach release their plasma, it doesn't dissipate after the ships are destroyed and turns several Super MAC guns to molten slag. From this, one could infer two things, either this is a new weapon being mentioned, or a discrepency. I like the new weapon theory better.--Rot 01:05, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

Plasma Turrent is the smallest weapon on a covenant vessel

All the plasma turrent is just the smallest weapon on a covenant vessel, and all of the turrents look alike?--Darth nexes 23:23, 26 November 2006 (UTC)

Plasma Turrent

Any one can edit this page, if you feel this is not acurit data you can change it, I did not add phisics, and no it is not the same as a plasma torpedo, this is just a weapon for taking out starfighters--Darth nexes 05:10, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

I will add physics. And there is nothing that says the turret is an AA gun. In fact, they missed a C709 'Sword and a Pelican over the remnants of Alpha Halo in First Strike. Cheers, RelentlessRecusantFile:Jedi Order.jpg 17:51, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
