That’s so weird

Here they have a screen shot of it.

it’s called a Lorentz plasma cannon

It's not a beam. It's basically a lightning bolt guided by a wire that is pre-fired at the target, causing discharge upon contact with the target. In Warhammer 40,000 terms, it's more like an arc weapon.

So like a 'super Taser'? 
 

Unfortunately the lack of damage that this thing gives (probably in much the same way as a tesla coil) stops it from being an inconvenient, burdensome, unwieldy personal defence tool. :confused:
