OK, OK! You made me do it!
Grazer/HPS (Herbavore Projection System)
Class: 1-10
Mass: 2 per class Arcs: 1 Extra Arcs: 1 mass each (max 3) per class Ammo: Mass
2 each (includes space for organic nutrients and waste disposal) Damage: As
Beam, ignores screens, causes threshold check against Bridge core system.
Developed on the agricultural world of Bo'Vine, the Grazer or HPS was
developed as a way to meet the requirements of defense, enviroment, and
peculiar religious beliefs. The system quick-freezes a herbavore (Guinea
Pig size to Elefant size depending on class of weapon), coats it with a
ferrous
coating, and projects it using magnetic fields at percent-of-C
velocities. Due to the disquieting nature of this weapon, the first time a
ship is hit by a Grazer, a threshold check is made vs the Bridge system
(failure indicates the bridge crew is too busy throwing up to continue combat
until a DCP can clean up the mess).

Hi all, I just had to point out (you must have heard it on this list before)
that this is earily similar to a discussion on the B5-Wars forum a while
back about the dreaded Centauri Furry-Mammal accelerator...it utilized
different mammals as ammo depending on the situation....and I remember
something about shooting down Starfurry fighters...... the Narns were busy for
quite a while there...broke a lot of bats I
hear...
I think I still have the SCS for a Centauri Vorchan warship that mounted the
FMA somewhere here.

Isn't this where Oerjan steps in an suggests the meat locker for the
GP's would be a tad smaller than for the Pachyderms? ;->=
'course, the whole discussion reminds me of the Murphy's Rules cartoon of
Alien Space, and it's 'Magma' weapon. Volcanoes in space?

The GP magazine provides more shots, of course.
I was not on the B5 forum, but I do rember that someone had a frozen weiner
gun (that I stole ideas from without credit because I forgot who designed it
or exactly what it was called).
I gladly submit that the idea was not original, and just submitted for humor.
