I thought that a good weapon would be a type of energy weapon like the Arbalest, except would be better for penetrating armor instead of shields.
It would fire in a cone-like shape with three projectiles.

Something like that. Like a space shotgun, or something. :P

One of the mods within craftomega's Minimash mod compilation includes a Buckshot Cannon, which I adore. But your proposal definitely takes that to the next level.

this would be awesome if it was an anti fighter weapon

one does not simply limit a space shotgun to a single role.

An energy shotgun made up of tiny plasma balls.

Nay, a Plasma Cannon Shotgun, made up of HUGE plasma balls!

A.K.A It's you.

So wait, the idea here is to spend three times as much ammunition/energy to deal exactly the same amount of damage as a standard cannon?
-
Each projectile does damage equal to ONE arbalest projectile, except on armor.
-
Why not just line the shots up and have hit be a triple barreled arbalest? I don't understand the point of the spread, it's inefficient.
-
If the spread was a hundred shots, and it were a PD weapon, I'd see some use for it, maybe. This is just pointless with slow firing, high damage weapons like the Arbalest.

Gauss-propelled rockets 8)
Looks like a laser (almost instant hit)
Hits like a rocket (good versus armor/hull)
And then some homing lasers PDs is all I'd really want...
