First built only years after the first SdT jump, almost all nations have constructed energy weapons since. Reminescent of their powder-based ancestors, energy arms have similar casings, although more stylised, and use re-usable cartridges. But, these energy cartridges are, in fact, battery cells which can be recharged. While energy weapons are frequently used by the military, they are very hard to acquire for gangs and police agencies.
There are four main types of energy arms-
1. electric pulse blasters (blasters)-use a focused electrical beam and work equally on all materials.
2. plasma discharge units (plasma)-use, in addition to a battery cell, a large plasma canister (the plasma is simmilar to the type found in blood). The weapon electrically charges the plasma and ejects it causing mass damage to organic substances, but less to others [double damage to organic substances].
3. ionic disrupters (ion)-fire a strand of altered ions, while only slightly damaging, can cause massive damage to shields and other electrical systems [double damage, disrupt any electronic systems].
4. microwave burst cannons (microwave)-shoot a focused burst of microwaves, which, while damaging to all substances, are extremely damaging to plastics, metals, and other synthetic substances [double damage].
Modern energy weapons appear as stylised, large machineguns/rifles with electrical readouts, accept the plasma weapons which always appear more like old-fashioned rocket launchers with large plasma cartridges. None of the energy weapons (except plasma) have any recoil at all.
Typical weapons (specific weapons will follow in supplements)-
Blaster-
damage:5D6+2
shots:20 per battery
range:1,000 ft
Plasma-
damage:4D6 (double to organic
targets)
shots:15 per battery and
cartridge
range:200 ft
Ion-
damage:4D6 (double to shields)
shots:20 per battery

Old-fashioned powder arms have advanced only slightly over the years.
Typical powder arms-

shots:single (must reload)
or, for some models 2 (double-barrel), or 5 (chamber, must be
fed one-at-a-time)
range:850 ft
Machinegun-
damage:2D6 times the number
of rounds fired
