General Information
The Thermic Lance is the next generation of the Vibroblade, casting away the traditional diamond tipped spiral drill bit for an even more durable thermal rod of alien design.
The Thermic Lance is slightly heavier and slower than the Vibroblade. This is counterbalanced with enough stopping power to practically kill your hardiest of foes - the Lobsterman - with one well placed attack. Even the large terror units with plenty of exterior armor don't take too kindly to the torque put out by this drill.
Once again the alien invaders do not have a single inkling of knowledge on how to operate these devices. More's the mystery as to why they are even brought into combat! One possible theory suggested was that these are a symbol of status for a special brigade of Sonic Pulser grenadiers. This theory was immediately batted down for being preposterous. No matter what the opinions are, X-Com will continue to benefit more from this device than their creators.
