Anyone have any Idea if Mass Drivers and Mass Accelereators atlest in the WCU are the same thing? the Drathi mk III has one. Dralthi III/VI/VII

Voices of War says that the Mass Accelerator "delivers light damage using blasts of sub-atomic particles." Pretty different from the mass driver. Also, the Dralthi Mk. III's armament is supposed to be analogous to that of the Arrow, which was armed with lasers. They seem like very different weapons with very similar names.--Vinman 11:38, 1 September 2007 (CDT)


Also, I'm fairly certain this article and the gun should be called just "mass driver" as opposed to "mass driver cannon." I don't see why you have taken the liberty to add cannon in there where it isn't needed. Maybe I'm wrong but it just sounds really odd to say it that way --AD 15:53, 1 September 2007 (CDT)

Sometimes it is listed as a Cannon (Raptor) but then again the MK 30A Gatling Mass Driver Cannon may be a different type of gun.

It was sometimes refered to as Mass Driver Cannon (Claw Marks, Voices of War, Star*Soldier) and other times as just Mass Driver. Since most of the other guns ended with either "gun" or "cannon", as in Laser Cannon, Flak Gun, Tachyon Gun, etc. I decided to use this version. But if everybody thinks it should be the other way, just tell me how to change the title and I will. Red Heartagram

This way is probably fine. I was forgetting some of the other references. That's what I get for not checking I guess. (it still sounds odd this way to me though, but I guess there's no real reason to change it)--AD 17:38, 2 September 2007 (CDT)
