Go Cortana, get your Plasma Beam AKA Plasma Scapel and gut ships stern to stern.

Plus, it would have to be like a super thermite grenade - Armor today is already very powerful, and if its enough to absorb hits from super-heated plasma and lasers, I doubt fire is going to do much besides give the guy a new paint job.

By Flamethrower, let's be logic, I didn't mean fire. More like concentrated plasma or something like that.

I want to get off Mr. Igiss' wild ride.

Well - Imagine a Magmahammer - It deals 900 damage per shot, now imagine a stream of that... Capital Ship sized.

We use anti-matter weapons.

The sheer energy that the annihilation of anti-matter and matter releases is more than enough to outclass plasma most probably.

Now, that's the thing. The thing would be useless unless at boarding distance from the other ship. (Which puts you at a really vulnerable situation).

Kinda like a... how do you say in English? Double-edged sword?

Hmm.. Flamethrower in space..

Flame = fire = oxygen + fuel

Space =/= Oxygen?

I think what is being proposed here, is not a 'flame thrower', more of a plasma beam, which would not require oxygen, but would still be quite 'flame-like'.

That would be the term.

As for the weapon, high-refire and plasma don't mix well. You'll melt your guns. There's a reason they're only 2.00 refire.
