'''Temporal weapons''' are, as their name implies, weapons affecting time. They are expressly outlawed by the Colonials for just concerns about their wide-ranging, uncontrollable effects ({{comics|vol2|1}}).

A {{inlineref|temporal battery}} harnessing temporal energy is constructed and used by Zee in order to charge the temporal warper weapons of the two [[Temporal Viper]] prototypes. It destabilizes due to the intense damage ''Galactica'' incurs during the [[Nebula Ambush]] to unpredictable results ({{comics|vol2|1}}).

The {{inlineref|chronal cannon}} is a large-scale weapon installed aboard [[Baltifer's basestar]], and is the only known cannon of its type in existence.
Its test deployment occurs upon [[Cache]], the [[Colonial Resistance]] base, reverting the planet's tectonic plates to an "ancient patter" ({{comics|vol2|4}}).

=== Temporal Warp Drive ===
An instantaneous [[FTL]] drive is also reverse-engineered by Zee, and dubbed the {{inlineref|temporal warp drive}}. It literally punches a hole in space and allows a ship to appear anywhere, without the need for waiting between destination points. While not a direct weapon in its own right, it is derived from the principles of the temporal warper, thus permitting Baltifer's basestar to follow the incongruous ''{{alt-r|Galactica}}'', commanded by Captain {{alt-r|Starbuck}} (alongside a {{alt|Starbuck|TOS|temporally displaced Starbuck}}), and inopportunely appears above Cache ({{comics|vol2|4}}).
