+{{:bhotr:weapon:ppa-parough.jpg?400|}}\\
+**Shot type:**\\
+Fully automatic machine gun. The shot itself is a blue to purple 'shaft' a quarter of the thickness of an average sowing needle's diameter. In atmosphere, the very core of the shot is blue, and tends to charge the surrounding air into a blue to purple plasma trail; the air's proximity to the shot determines the brief coloration with blue being the hottest, and purple, 'colder'. The pretty (but deadly) particle beam penetrates the target and then causes a violent explosion by rapidly super-heating what matter it comes into contact with at it's stopping point.\\
+**Mode info:**
+Fully automatic only. In theory, the weapon is most effective on raw flesh and organic material. Field reports indicate that the weapon's powerful automatic fire has been known to dismember and then vaporize Drathonian infantry. Standard Terran Marine combat suits have been known to have the chest plate mostly melted and vaporized upon contact with a single shot during testing.\\
+**Features:**\\
+  * Mid Air Holographic Targeting Reticule\\
+  * Large Battery Cell specifically for the M6 HMG\\
+  * Emergency feed port capable of accepting S/GUR and BR-02 power sources.\\
+  * Integrated folding Tripod\\
+  * Small, transparent, integrated heat and gun shield (optional)\\
+  * Energy Charges remaining display directly underneath reticule\\
+  * Can fire indefinitely so long as power is available\\
+  * Can fire while overheated; the small, armored, multi-layered alloy and ceramic gun shield protects the user from the tremendous amounts of dissipating heat, and light energy weapons fire.\\

+Well, I'd like to leave a few notes on this new toy that I hope you all will enjoy. First of all, it looks kinda like an XM312 but longer, with a tripod, gun shield, and a carry handle like the one the Sugar has, but glowing iron sights only. Keep in mind, when it fires, there's these flanges along the 2 inch diameter barrel that pop out to vent away excess heat; they kinda look like the thingies that pop out of Covenant Plasma Rifle from Halo. There's just more of them due to the barrel length of course. The bore of the barrel is very small, as mentioned earlier; you can't even fit a needle in it. The gun shield also protects the user from this heat dump feature as well. Originally, this was supposed to weigh around 50 or so pounds, but Kai suggested the realm of Battle Hymn was full of feather light industrial killing machines. Those were definitely not his exact words, but the reason I wished the first draft to be heavy, is that today's gear (Such as the venerable M2 Browning) weighs around 130 lbs! You can tell I disapprove of average folks pulling off a Rambo or a Master Chief kinda thing. Still, I guess those two aren't so bad... \\
