THE DEMIPLANE CANNON:
If I had an uberpowerful mage with a lot of cash I think I would create a spherical plane. With no air in it - essentially a vacuum plane. Then I would place a portal on the top and on at the bottom. The portal at the bottom should be set so that its exit would be the top portal. And I should be able to change the exit of the bottom to another portal at will -this other exit portal I would place on my small flying ship (I would obviously have a lot of cash to buy these things) - Now If you drop a large rock og metal sphere into the portal that exits at the top of the demi plane this rock would drop to the bottom portal and then immediately exit at the top again - it would be falling for as long as one wanted - never attaining terminal velocity because of the vacuum essentially accelerating to relativistic speeds- at some point I could then at will change the exit of the bottom portal to my portal mounted on the flying ship - and voila I would have a railgun type cannon but one capable of releasing energy comparable to the largest nuclear blasts. the range and maximum output of such an awesome weapon would be limited by the durability of the projectile...and perhaps of the ship becaus of the heat generated by the friction as the projectile enters normal atmosphere but the gun would have no recoil at all. and weigh nothing or very little. Rate of fire would be relatively slow - but it would not take many hours for the projectile to gain enough momentum to create explosions equal to a medium sized nuclear device.
