Created initially by Gungis X Weapons, blaster carbine rifles have become very popular in recent years, helped by falling prices due to competition from other companies.
This blaster rifle variant is one of many fine weapons produced by the factories of Cinnagar in their continued militarizing after the Great Hyperspace War a thousand years ago.
This was the weapon of mercenary Jamoh Hogra, and was supposed to protect him against the many enemies he earned in his lifetime. Hogra's skill didn't match its potential, however.
More powerful than the commonly available pistol, the blaster rifle is favored by soldiers throughout the galaxy. Civilian ownership of these weapons is not generally encouraged.
Despite its effectiveness, these modified blaster rifles are not often employed by the Sith. They prefer to engage their enemies up close and personal.
These weapons are almost overpowered for their size, but the Mandalorians prefer them that way. They do not make a habit of being subtle in their war making.
These weapons are almost beginning to cross the line to light artillery. Armor is generally ineffective against such a weapon, unless it is of the highest quality.
Jurgan Kalta wanteed to make a big noise in the galaxy. If it was the screams of his enemies, all the better. This weapon was his favorite because it shared his adaptability.
The bowcaster is an invention of the Wookiees of Kashyyyk. Also called a laser crossbow, it actually uses a magnetic accelerator to hurl an explosive energy quarrel at its target.
Disruptor rifles all have at least Damage: Physical, 1-6, Range: 28m and Critical Threat: 20-20,x2 (5% chance). Feedback labels this damage universal, but it can be absorbed by Mandalorian Shields (Deflection: Bludgeoning, Piercing, Slashing) and reduced by Damage Resistance: Resist #/- vs. Bludgeoning, Piercing or Slashing. Actual universal damage can only be reduced by the feats Improved Toughness and Wookiee Toughness (2 points each).
This disruptor is even more destructive than its pistol counterpart, and is outlawed on just as many worlds. Disruptors reduce solid matter to its constituent molecules. Painfully. Unlike typical blasters, disruptors ignore most types of personal energy shields.
Zabrak always command respect, especially with the aid of weapons that are even more damaging than already-outlawed standard disruptors. Unlike typical blasters, disruptors ignore most types of personal energy shields.
Using the same 'shaped-energy' concept as in his Ion-X Weapon, Suvam Tan has modified a Baragwin disruptor weapon as well, giving comparable levels of concussive force to the blast that the Ion-X Weapon delivers. Upgrades to this weapon could potentially greatly increase both the impact force and the penetration of its charges.
Ion rifles all have at least Damage: Ion, 1-6, Ion: +2-12 vs. Droid (2d6), Range: 28m and Critical Threat: 20-20,x2 (5% chance). Ion damage is doubled against any shield, resulting in the following:
Any well-stocked militia usually has stores of ion rifles in reserve. They aren't much use against the living, but if the enemy has battle droids these weapons become essential.
While they may have borrowed liberally from designs the Bothans initiated, the Verpine say you can't argue with results. These weapons are simply devastating against droids.
This weapon is an experimental Baragwin design that has been extensively modified by Suvam Tan. He has incorporated what he describes as a 'shaped-energy' delivery system into the weapon, which allows it to deliver concussive force on impact in addition to the weapon's normal energy discharge. Upgrades to the weapon could potentially greatly increase both its impact force and its penetration.
More powerful than the pistol, the sonic rifle fires a blast of sound that causes a great deal of sensory overload in addition to damage, disorienting the victim.
This was conceived as a "last resort" weapon should espionage fail and a quick retreat be called for. It is effective, but the Bothans would prefer that it not be needed.
The Arkanians pioneered many non-lethal weapons that could disorient opponents, but most were retrofitted to be superior damage dealers as well because the initial demand for them was so low.
This weapon isn't available to player characters without cheating.
