====== Esyga ======

Esyga is an alloy of tungsten carbide and cobalt, forming an extremely hard and ferro-magnetic metal. It is manufactured by the [[:raiconian_alliance|]], developed for use by the [[organization:protectors_of_the_alliance|]]. It was developed alongside the prototype gauss cannons when engineers required a hard but durable metal for ammunition and coils. Esyga was the result of their various combination experiments.

Esyga is extremely durable, resistant to wear and tear, and is magnetic. It is primarily used for [[raiconian_alliance:protectors_of_the_alliance:esyga_gauss_rounds|]] and the coils inside gauss weaponry.
