Stellar Weapons

Stellar weapons are designed to either make use of a significant proportion of the energy of a star or to destroy the star entirely. Stellar weapons are extremely rare and even more rarely used. There are only a few instances where it has been deemed necessary to literally destroy an entire solar system for the sake of a military objective and these periods are often considered some of the darkest in Terragen history.
