The Slim Saw is a compact squad support weapon specifically designed with urban combat in mind.

The ceramic barrel has been greatly reduced in length compared to other heavy automatic weapons and the telescoping shoulder stock further reduces overall weapon length.

The weight, too, is phenomenally low at just 5.5 kg. To help manage recoil despite this lack of mass, a fair amount of gas is bled off and vented from ports surrounding the muzzle.

40 full sized 10mm calibre rifle rounds are stored in an underslung magazine running the length of the barrel and doubling as a forward hand guard.

The Slim Saw can be fitted with additional recoil compensation, laser painting units and scopes. Its special barrel design does not allow the installation of silencers or flash suppressors.

A Slim Saw costs 1295c.

Game Use:

Slim Saw Clip 40 Calibre 10mm ROF 10/2 Recoil 9/6 Range 12m

All bullets fired from the Slim Saw suffer -1 PEN.

Thresher Inc. manufactures fragmentation hand grenades with DU lining.

The heavy grenades are sized for use by power suited troops. Their DU shrapnel are easily capable of piercing body armour and are especially feared by ebbusers confronted with Thresher forces.

The grenades are not made available for sale by Thresher and are instead kept for their own use.

Game Use:

A new weapon in the DarkNight arsenal, the DN38 subcompact pistol is being distributed to infiltrators and converts as a back-up and covert operations arm.

It is chambered for DarkNight’s calibre of choice, the readily available 10mm pistol round. Its short fully ceramic barrel, rounded composite frame with matte black finish, and grip safety are all designed to enhance its concealability and minimise maintenance requirements.

The DN38 does accept a silencer or suppressor to further supplement its usefulness in its intended role.

The pistol weights 0.5 kg.

DarkNight offers these weapons for sale for 1700u.

Game Use:

DN38 Clip 5 Calibre 10mm ROF 2/1 Recoil 4 Range 8m

A TABLE is a one-shot suppression weapon using a disposable compressed air launch tube to deliver a canister of liquid explosives set to air burst over the target area.

The canister’s light construction produces very little shrapnel but the spray of liquid explosives covers an exceptionally large area.

With a special magnetic adaptor a TABLE can be mounted under slung on a rifle sized weapon.

A complete TABLE weights 1.2 kg.

A TABLE costs 25c and a reusable magnetic adaptor 2c.

Game Use:

TABLE Clip 1 Calibre - ROF 1 Recoil 2 Range 20m

TABLE Blast Rating 8 PEN -2

A TABLE has double the normal blast radius of a standard grenade. Its epicentre lies in midair and so damage is normally not multiplied for a target in the centre of the blast.

The Fumée is an advanced infantry flamethrower deployed by SLA Industries-equipped military units but not cleared for use by operative squads.

The weapon has a two-stage variable power setting, changing between a rapid fire wide arc mode for area suppression and attacks against massed targets and a concentrated stream for taking out large and well protected single targets. In both modes the Fumée boasts exceptional range and accuracy for a weapon of its type.

The large fuel tanks are integral to the weapon, thus eliminating the need for vulnerable fuel lines. The fuel used is a two component gel, completely inert while separated and self-igniting as soon as mixed. The Fumée carries enough gel for at least six seconds of continuous firing.

The weapon can be mounted on a waldo unit but otherwise neither accepts nor needs other accessoires.

The APN Fumée weights 13 kg.

Cleared open market customers pay 3060c per unit.

Game Use:

The FEN603s is a production version of the FEN603 with an integrated silencer. The weapon is lighter and considerably more compact than a standard FEN603 mounting a silencer as an accessoire. Due to the redesigned barrel the FEN603s does not accept add-ons such as flash suppressors. All other features remain as on the standard model.

The FEN603s weights 0.7 kg.

It costs 165c.

Game Use:

FEN 603c Clip 10 Calibre 10mm ROF 3/1 Recoil 3 Range 12m

These cheap easy to use assault weapons are intended for local paramilitary forces co-opted by the Ministry of War. A no-nonsense design, the Stormgun features a large capacity magazine for 10mm pistol ammunition, a forward hand guard with integrated safety, a collapsible wire stock, and not much else. Its matte black finish is the colour of untreated impact resistant composites.

A Stormgun weights 2 kg.

Outside of Ministry procurement the Stormgun is available at a price of 200c.

Stormgun Clip 50 Calibre 10mm ROF 5 Recoil 8 Range 10m

Conrad leaves their familiar field of handguns with the Komet, a heavy assault weapon chambered for the full sized 17mm ammunition commonly used in sniper cannons.

The recoil operated Komet’s short ceramic barrel rests fully within the reinforced composite superstructure of the weapon. Its detachable box magazine loads 10 rounds.

Some strong individuals can fire the Komet unassisted but otherwise a waldo unit or additional recoil compensation are recommended to make the cannon controllable. Besides recoil dampers a full suite of sights, targeting lasers, and barrel mounted accessoires can be mounted.

The Komet weighs 14 kg.

Conrad’s Komet Assault Cannon is available for 2350c.

Game Use:

Komet Clip 10 Calibre 17mm ROF 1 Recoil 12 Range 180m

Apocalyptic Systems and KlipKiller continue their successful partnership with the Self Track automated infantry protection system.

The system mounts a double-barrelled 12.7 mm assault weapon in a shoulder harness with upgraded tracking capabilities for a full 270 degrees field of fire. No trigger assembly is included, as the Self Track’s fully computerised targeting and firing mechanism autonomously engages targets designated via vocal command.

The Self Track Shoulder Turret is a self contained unit and not designed to accept additional accessoires.

The whole system weighs 4 kg.

A complete Self Track Shoulder Turret costs 990c.

Game Use:

Self Track Clip 8 Calibre 12.7mm ROF 2/1 Recoil 8 Range 10m

The Self Track gives an additional attack at skill rank 3. It may not be fired using the character’s own skill.

This heavy barrel extension can be mounted on a firearm in place of a silencer. It sets up destructive harmonics in projectiles as they pass through it, transforming standard bullets into clouds of deadly shrapnel.

A Class IV Fragmenter adds 0.8 kg to the weight.

It costs 105c.

Game Use:

A Class IV Fragmenter increases AD of standard ammunition by 4, and reduces PEN by 2.
