\\\"After the Battle of the Citadel, human and turian volunteers spent three months clearing the station\\\'s orbit of debris. During the cleanup, the turians secretly salvaged Sovereign\\\'s powerful main gun along with much of the weapon\\\'s element zero core. Eleven months later, the turians introduced the Thanix, a scaled-down version of the weapon.

The Thanix\\\'s core is a liquid alloy of iron, uranium, and tungsten suspended in an electromagnetic field powered by element zero. The molten metal, accelerated to a significant fraction of the speed of light, solidifies into a projectile as it is fired, hitting targets with enough force to pierce any known shield or armor. The gun can fire reliably every five seconds.

The weapon\\\'s relatively small size allows it to be mounted on most fighters or frigates. It is now widely used by the Alliance military and is the primary weapon on the refurbished Normandy SR-2.\\\"

As for the second entry, like I said Shepard has faced insurmountable odds before and always found a way to overcome them. Shepard giving up for no reason is an act of stupidity.
Moreover I could debate the legitimacy of half the entries here.
You know what I DON\\\'T do? Delete them outright.

This is not up for dispute. The game backs me up.
Zaptech is a biased vandal and obvious Bioware fanboy, I am simply adding facts from the game. I expect to see my entries restored.
