Naming the LG - s1lence - 03-08-2012

Hello,
Could we please name the LG after Tesla?
I think it's a good way to pay tribute to him. He was the man who first conceptualized the Charged particle beam projector, or as he called it: the Teleforce.
Wikipedia page on Teleforce
Feel free also to suggest Tesla related names.

Thank you.

Sounds good to me.

But something in the game is already named after Tesla: the electric turrets, e.g. standing on "vehicing worlds xon"

We should name the LG after Otto Hahn because of all the work he did in "splitting the atom". Otto Hahn aka "the father of nuclear chemistry". [Image: Bundesarchiv_Bild_183-46019-0001%2C_Otto_Hahn.jpg]

We should name the LG after Marie Curie because of her pioneering research on radioactivity. [Image: Marie_Curie_c1920.png]

I think right now 'arc cannon' is what is floating around unofficially, but that would get abbreviated to AC which stands for a lot of other stuff too.

I'd prefer 'Tesla Arc Cannon' which would be TAC Wink

Teslarc cannon

SLAC cannon. SLAC is obviously the abbr for Tesla and arc.

but Tesla Arc Cannon sounds quite good, too.

TAC could maybe used as the standard name, like HLAC was used.

SLAC is nice indeed. Almost puts newbies and campers into their own category...
