Pistols

Short range (~50m maximum effective distance)

• Tartilium-pattern Laspistol - A pistol version of the Tartilium-pattern lasgun. Uses Power Packs. Number of shots varies depending on type of power pack.
  • Well-Maintained Laspistol: This weapon is constantly given proper maintenance, making it more likely to hit beyond its effective range.
  • Ornate Laspistol: Ornate engravings and proper oils have appeased this weapon's Machine Spirit, making it more likely to hit beyond its effective range, and giving an extra few shots (number is random) per power pack.
• Stub Revolver - A basic double-action handgun. Uses Stub Pistol Rounds. Can hold 6 bullets at a time; each bullet must be loaded individually unless a speedloader is used.

Rifles

Medium range (~100m maximum effective distance)

• Tartilium-pattern Lasgun - A rifle that fires a coherent beam of energetic photons that can burn through most materials, produced in the Tantumire Sector. This pattern of lasgun is lighter and quieter than many other models, but has a lower charge. To ensure the same level of power, this lower charge corresponds to less shots per power pack. Uses Power Packs. Number of shots varies depending on type of power pack.

• Plasma Rifle - A finely-crafted rifle that fires bolts of super-heated plasma. Has a rare chance to explode when used. Uses Hydrogen Canisters. Number of shots varies depending on type of hydrogen canister.
