Prism technology

During the Second World War, the Allies have always been somewhat inferior to the Soviet Union in terms of defences. In fact while their pillbox and turrets were effective, they were not nearly as powerful as Soviet Tesla Coils that proved to be able to decimate the Allied tank divisions. The soviets later in the war also ported their Tesla technology on wheels, in form of Tesla Tanks, and later started using soldiers called Shock Troopers that used a Tesla rifle.

After the war, the weakness of allied defences compared to the soviet ones was noted, and Albert Einstein, to counter the USSR's Tesla Technology, developed the Prism Beam. The Prism Beam is a form of Laser which has a long range and high destructive rate, making it, to put it bluntly, a deadly threat to any infantry or base defense on the battlefield. Units armed with Prism weapons were the Prism Tower and the Prism Tank.

Prism Technology is also extremely versatile. For example, Prism Towers were designed as a defense and as such, they had to be powerful against both infantry and vehicles. While Prism Tanks were conveived as an artillery unit, and despite using the same technology of the Prism Tower, they were not effective against enemy tanks (but were even more effective than the Prism Tower against infantry). How this was exactly done is unknown.

History
Prism Technology was developed during GWIII, when the Soviets invaded the United States of America. The first device to use Prism Technology was the Prism Tower, a defence inspired by the Soviet Tesla Coil. Various Prism Towers were erected near the Pentagon to defend it from Soviet assaults. The Soviets in the city were not expecting to find such a powerful weapon there, and their attempts to destroy the pentagon failed miserably. The prism towers performed greatly and the allies leaders decided to distribuite them to other Allied commanders. After the Prism Towers, the allies decided to transfer Prism technology on wheels and developed the Prism Tank, a long range unity which was extremely effective against enemy buildings and infantry.

The Soviets were once again impressed by this new weapon developed by Einstein and decided to acquire it. The Soviets captured an American base in California where Albert Einstein's Prism Tower technology had been tested and stole the existing prototypes in the hopes of reverse-engineering the technology. They transferred the technology to the ruined Mayan city of Tulum in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico for further study, deep inside the Soviet lines. A team of Navy SEALs was sent in the location to either recapture or destroy the prism towers created by the soviets. The Navy SEALs managed to recapture them and use them against the soviets (these new prism towers were also a lot more powerful than the standard ones) and removed all the soviet forces from the area.

Prism technology was used for the rest of the war and also during the Psychic Dominator Disaster and the Post-War Crisis. During this period, in particular, a new version of the Prism Tank was developed.

After the assassination of Einstein by Cherdenko, Prism technology was lost. FutureTech developed Spectrum technology to replace it.
