See weapon descriptions below
Melee
Brass Knuckle
Brass Knuckles are very simple weapons: chunks of metal (not always brass) designed to slip over your fingers and add power to your punches.
Knife
Monoblade Knife
Stun Baton
Stun Gun
The name "stun gun" is a bit of a misnomer: it's a hand-held device with protruding electrodes. Push the electrodes into an opponent and they get shocked, which is why it does not add brawn to the damage.
Ranged (Light)
Frag Grenade
Heavy Pistol
Heavy pistols are big, bulky hand cannons, like a .45-calibur or larger.
Light Pistol
The ubiquitus pistol is the go-to solution for law enforcement, sport shooting, self-defense, and criminal activity throughout the world. A light is a basic, medium-calibur pistol: a 9mm or .38 calibur weapon, for example. A .22 calibur pistol would reduce the damage by 1 and increase the critical rating by 1.
Needle Pistol
The needle pistol uses electromagnetic coils to fire bursts of tiny metal spears called flechettes. These benefit from significant penetrative power and can sometimes punch straight through an opponents but they don't have a great deal of stopping power.
Stun Grenade
Sub-machine Gun
Sum-machine guns (SMGs) use pistol-caliber ammunition and a high rate of fire to provide a while lot of damage capacity in a small, easy-to-use package.
Ranged (Heavy)
Assault Rifle
While clattering, hard-hitting assault rifles are ostensibly military weapons, they can and often do fallinto the hands of gangs, crime syndicates and insurgents. "Carbine" versions of many assault rifles exist, which are more compact and reduce the range to medium but also decrease encumbrance by one.
Gauss Rifle
A Gauss Rifle uses an electromagnetic rail or coil to hurl a metal projectile over a long distance at incredible speed. The main drawback of this weapon is that it takes some time to recharge its capacitors after firing.
Needle Rifle
The needle rifle is a larger, heavier version of the pistol, similar to a shotgun that fires larger bursts of flechettes.
Sniper Rifle
While they vary by service and sovereignty, all sniper rifles are designed to fire high-calibur, high velocity rounds over long distances.
Shotgun
When you really want to make an impression in a firefight, a shotgun is a great way to go. Pulling a pistol from a hidden pocket just doesn't have the same dramatic effect as, say, drawing a lever-action 10 guage out of a box of roses in slow motion.
Stun Shotgun
Gunnery
Assault Cannon
Machine Gun
Machine guns are large, heavy, often crew-served weapons. Depending on the type, a machine gun can be anything from a medium-weight, man-portable squad-support weapon to a heavy, turret mounted .50 cal.
