"SH-1-0-1-5-1. This is the serial number of our orbital gun. SH-1-0-1-5-1. You better be sure before you leave me for another one you can hurt me...I can hurt you." —"2Wicky", Hooverphonic

On the ground, Commander Karrde stared silently as eight slender beams descended from the clear sky, man-made lightning bolts of ionized particles that slammed into the ground around the Nod base's coordinates... In orbit, thrusters pulsed again, and Ion Cannon Twenty-Seven began to rotate, and the smaller projectors began to close in with the central shaft.
