-{{SiteNotice}}'''Rift weapons''', also known as '''rift projectors''', are weapons powered by [https://100th-millennium.fandom.com/wiki/Lux_Aeterna?so=search#Aeternal_Energy Aeternal Energy] that open a short-lived rift directly into the [[Lux Aeterna]].  Anything that gets caught in the rift is drawn in, sometimes even being torn apart if the rift ends up opening inside them.
-In order to open the rift, the weapon uses an aeternically-sensitive crystal mounted in the spot where the muzzle would be on a normal weapon. The crystal is then supercharged with Aeternal Energy, which is contained within a reinforced shell near the back of the weapon. The energy is then projected at a target, tearing open a hole in reality that lasts for as long as the energy is projected.
-The effect these weapons can have is devastating, ranging from annihilating an entire squadron in an instant to collapsing a skyscraper. They are also highly effective on targeting weak points on large targets, making them great for dealing with superheavy ground units. However, as containing so much Aeternal Energy within such a small space is quite difficult, the weapon is rather rare.
-== Types of Rift Weapons ==
-=== [[Rift Lance]] ===
-Rift lances are shoulder-mounted weapons similar in appearance to a rocket launcher, the most notable difference being the crystal sticking out of the business end. While powerful, these weapons tend to exhaust their supply of Aeternal Energy rather quickly.
-=== [[Rift Cannon]] ===
-Rift cannons are powerful weapons usually found mounted on ground vehicles. Vehicles using these weapons often end up as high-priority targets, forcing them to eschew armor in favor of speed.
-=== [[Rift Devourer]] ===
-Rift devourers are massive, starship-mounted rift weapons that take an enormous amount of Aeternal Energy to fire. As such, these weapons are extremely rare, only being seen on vessels belonging to nations with high [[Thaumaturgy|thaumic]] prowess. However, the firepower these weapons can provide is more than worth it, able to tear apart even [[battleships]] with ease.
