Energy-loaded missile weapons

Energy-loaded missile weapons convert energy directly into projectiles or other effects. In a few cases, these weapons use energy to supplement another primary projectile or effect, such as the turbow using energy to supplement the damage of its arrows.

Energy-loaded missile weapons are most commonly powered by energy cells, but can also be powered from other sources, such as onboard power systems or Electrical Generation.
