What about old school ships? Airships? Steampunk? Has nobody thought of that?

Anything much lighter than that and it's fairly much wasted energy. If you are looking for either more impact or damage ability, you simply either
1/ use a higher density projectile
or 2/ an increased charge combination in your shell cartridge.
Additionally, railgun technology is not a practical application on small rounds under 125mm. You might get a little velocity increase down to 80mm calibre. But the energy requirements counter out any gains you might acheive. If you need something powerful (why 10mm?) below 100mm, go for a high rate of fire multi-barrelled set up.My FF.netStories -Stargate Atlantis Allies-Colonel Ted Hasluck Bio

Spoiler:
I didn't bother rendering the cruiser because its still in a very early stage of modelling and rendering on my machine takes rather long so there's no point since at this stage I just want to showcase the shape and layout.
