Equipment

• Air-yacht: The air-yacht was a single person hover-ship utilized by Maximus Boltagon during the early years of his struggle to take the throne of Attilan. After witnessing the Silver Surfer getting into a battle with the Royal Family, Maximus took advantage of the situation and used his ship to attack the Great Refuge. He fired electron beams at the battlements and breached the city-state's first line of defense. Guards defended themselves using gun placements, and even the Royal Family took up arms to keep the ship at bay. After enduring sufficient ground fire, the air-yacht was greatly damaged, and Maximus was forced to flee.

• Atmo-Gun: The Atmo-Gun was a large weapon developed by Maximus and fired a blast that could generate great seismic tremors, but this was not the primary function of the weapon. It was also designed to affect human physiology, effectively wiping out all human life on Earth. Inhumans, being a genetically different species, wold be safe from the Atmo-Gun's effects. Maximus activated the weapon, and although it did generate some ground quakes, it had not effect on human physiology.
