Hideout Cooker

The Hideout Cooker was the largest of the Cooker class weapons of the Radical Age. In shape it was a central power unit with eight legs containing ultraspeakers, shaped like a huge spider, that could squat over a building and deliver ultrasound (to destroy buildings and kill people) or microwave pulses (to just kill people) over a concentrated area within its legs. Built of high density carbon fibre, the largest could engulf buildings ten storeys high and a city block wide. It was extensively used to generate the Nocopy Notices; however it proved useless against the survivariums because the rock interfered with the energy delivery.
