Long Description | While attending a retro-theme party based on television shows from Earth's 20th century, Brakham Nordstrom was struck by the idea that deflector technology could be extended to block different types of energy more effectively. With inverted tachyon pulses used in a steady stream, virtually all the output of energy weapons could be blocked, if only for a short period of time. This observation led to the formation of his company, General Dynometrics, which won the majority of the next set of planetary defense contracts. Unfortunately, the company went bankrupt before any subsequent research could be completed. |
