The Boomshot is a [[Locust]] weapon that resembles a cross between a rocket launcher and a grenade launcher. The weapon fires an explosive projectile that detonates on impact with a damaging explosion. A direct hit will destroy an average sized target. If the target is missed, upon detonation this projectile splits into three smaller charges which bounce randomly around the immidiate area (usually towards the direction the shot was taken in) and detonate with smaller explosions. The boomshot is a one-shot weapon and must be reloaded after each shot.  
The Hammer of Dawn is an Imulsion-energized satellite particle-beam weapon capable of leveling buildings.  It must be orbitally aligned overhead to fire.  Your HQ contact lets you know when it is available.  The Hammer requires a ground-based observer to acquire a target with a targeting laser. To do this, a Coalition soldier(Gear) must have line of site on the target and open sky. Press the left trigger to aim, then the right trigger to fire.  Firing the hammer of dawn takes several seconds for the beams to align and fire, and if you are standing too close to the target, you risk becomming a casualty yourself.


It is avaliable in both single player and multiplayer games.
The Hammer of Dawn is the only weapon in the COG aresenal that can defeat a [[Berzerker]]. Once the Berzerker's defences has been compromised with the Hammer, it can be attacked with conventional weapons for a short time.
