Standard Plasma Anti-material Rifle

The SPAMR is a plasma rifle, whose purpose is to do heavy damage to vehicles and stationary objects. Generally overkill, it is much more weapon than is needed to take down an enemy soldier, even a Drathonian, and its primary purpose is to forcefully remove doors, locks, and other obstacles, as well as to help damage armored vehicles and the like.

The Plasma is formed when a specialized gas is injected into the chamber, which then compresses and ionizes the gas, changing it into a high-energy state. These charged, compressed particles have nowhere to go except out, and, a small electromagnetic pulse is used to give it an extra push, accelerating the blast towards its target. This compressed charged air superheats any solid it comes into contact with, causing a concentrated explosion as the material is violently turned from solid to gas.

Because the Plasma bolt is not soild, it is susceptible to bloom. this greatly decreases the Rifle's range, and, enough suspended particles in the air will actually bleed power off of the round, decreasing its power when it finally contacts its actual target.

Ammunition:

  • Battery: the SPAMR uses a capacitor in order to work the mechanisms of the rifle, as well as Ionize and electromagnetically propel the plasma charge toward its target.
  • Gas Cartridges: This cartridge is hidden under a panel on the left side of the gun, just above the battery. It is removed by sliding the panel forward and pushing the cartridge in to disengage it. Replacing works by pressing the cartridge into its slot until it clicks, then sliding the panel back into it's place.
