Mith Nara

Sceptre

Tactical Infantry Weapon Standard Five
Resolution Seven Four Nine and Resolution One Five Two (subsection A) both provide the requirement to develop a sublethal and lethal option weapon for use in article 9 (subsection B) engagements up to article 11 engagements. A tendering process was derived by the External Security Initiative Committee's subcommittee with Special Remit for Procurement and established the Solutions Protocol Board for the design of a tactical humanoid combat interface particle beam weapon. Accessed by the Committee for Procurement Efficiency most of the requirements suggested by the military were thrown out on cost grounds and what was left was a functional rifle that does it's job but little more.

'The only frill this weapon has is the sheen of 'calming' blue paintjob, this weapon is rugged, not entirely comfortable, basic but dependable.'

Damage: 3d8, Critical: 20, Damage Type: Beam, Range Increment: 2, Rate of Fire: 1, Magazine: 50, Size: Medium, Weight: 1kg, Purchase DC: 10, License Level: 4

The One Who Wants

Therson

Thetis

TropicSoft s5 Smartgun: The standard Federation longarm, the s5 is a compact, boxy impact-polymer carbine featuring an imposingly large muzzle - not because it fires large shells, but because it has a sophisticated internally vectored virtual bore. When coupled with appropriate targeting hardware - typically some form of eye-tracking HUD - it can compensate for many ballistic and aiming errors on the fly, resulting in a disturbingly accurate weapon.

Accuracy: +0, Damage: 2d8, Critical: 20, Piercing: 0, Damage Type: Physical, Range Increment: 4, Rate of Fire: 3,S,A, Magazine: 45, Size: Large, Weight: 5kg, Purchase DC: 10, License Level: 4
