GA SD-75 ‘Striker’10 Gauge Shotgun

New from GA, SD-75 Striker Shotgun is their firstweapon intended for Shiver issue since the successof the Browbeater and appears to be yet anotherattempt to rekindle their fortunes in the field ofsmall arms technology. A unique design the Strikeris intended to be a ‘Special Deployment’ weaponand in addition to firing standard slugs or shot shellsis also capable of using a variety of riot, no lethaland anti-personnel rounds. Since it is impossible toselect the order in which rounds are fired from aconventional magazine or belt feed, GA haveinstead opted for a ‘revolver’ format for the SD-75so that three different types of ammunition can beloaded at the same time and easily switchedbetween during combat. The shells for the Strikerare carried in a large, enclosed 12 shot cylinder witheach one being loaded into its own individualchamber. This whole arrangement is than connectedto a small electric motor which rotates the magazinerather than relying on gas or recoil operation. Anonboard electronics package is responsible forcontrolling this drive motor and ensuring that thechambers index correctly with the weapons breech.In normal use the gun will simply fire one chamberafter another, but thanks to GA’s inclusion of aspecial fire select switch the cylinder can be madeto ‘jump’ between shots and select rounds out ofsequence. This is achieved by dividing the rotarymagazine into three groups of four and giving eacha setting on the selector switch meaning that theStriker is capable of carrying anti-riot rounds forcrowd suppression, but the user can always havefour lethal rounds in the cylinder in case ofemergency. The onboard electronics keeps track ofthe rounds fired and will always turn the magazineto a loaded chamber or give an audible warning ifall the shells in a particular group have beenexpended. Since the cylindrical magazine is integraland cannot easily be removed, shells must be loadedin to it individually via a sliding gate at its rear.This process can be somewhat slow if all the gunschambers are empty, although GA have gone someway to speeding up the process by adding anautomatic ejector to remove spent cases. Built frommilitray grade ceramics the Striker is a robust and

sturdy design with all its systems, including the2000 round powercell being fully water and shockproofed. 60% recoil baffles and laser pointing comeas standard, as do mounting points for optical sightsor standard SLA torches. To improve handling theweapons come with front and rear pistol grips, and acompact folding stock. GA are also supplying theguns with forty round ammuntion bandoleersallowing the user to carry a selection of ammuntiontypes. The Striker is currently on trial with variousShiver groups to help improve their flexibility andgive them increased firepower when need. Theguns, and their special ammuntion have also beenmade available to the operative market, althoughnumbers of these highly effective and supremelyflexible weapons are currently limited.

Game NotesIt takes 1 Action (0 on a DEX role) to switchbetween ammuntion types in the Strikers magazine.Reloading takes 2 Actions per shell inserted (1 on aDEX role). For details of the Strikers specialistammunition see the equipment section.

The unit comes fitted with a largecapacity drum magazine which mounts snugly underthe users arm,, while a special plate over the back ofthe hand is incorporated to prevent fingers gettinginto the not inconsiderable muzzle blast.

unwieldy. Injection molded ceramic constructionused through out makes the 317 ideal for operativelife on the streets, while to back this up FEN arewilling to give you a total maintenance guarantee onparts and labor. Another special feature is the thumboperated rate of fire switch incorporated into theflip down trigger grouping, meaning you don’t needtwo hands to operate it. Factory fitting with 80%recoil baffles should mean that your forearm doesn’ttake to much punishment when the Cutter is inoperation and most accessories in our range can beadded to the gun, apart from telescopic sights due toits mounting position. Not a pistol, not an SMG, theFEN 317 Cutter is a statement on our commitmentto designing the best weapons for the job.

Game NotesThe maximum range of the gas jet is 10 meters, anygreater than that and it will have no effect. The 101is aimed and fired just like a handgun and anyone ithits will receive the standard effects from DA RiotGas. These effects should also be applied to anyoneelse within a meter either side of the target. Thecloud will then disperse in the normal way. It a shotof gas is aimed at and hits an unprotected target inthe head then the Physical roll is increased to -15taking account of the much greater concentration. Itis up to a GM how much a missed blast of gas willeffect targets if at all, the maximum cloud size thatcan be formed by the launcher is 2 x10 meters.

The foam bondsquickly to either skin or armour and is virtuallyimpossible to remove without the use of a specialspray on solvent supplied with the gun. The gunitself is a gas operated, semiautomatic model andwith the fitted box magazine is able to lose off avolley of rounds in a matter of seconds.

Game NotesAttacks with a Foam Cannon are treated the same asany other rifle attack. If a target is successfully hitthe round will explode coating it entirely with foamand causing 2 hits from the impact, but no woundand no penetration. The restriction of the foam willthen give a - 4 penalty to any actions the victimattempts to perform. This effect will be cumulativeif they’re hit with further rounds i.e. a target struck,with three rounds will have a -12 penalty. Attacksaimed directly at a targets head stand a 4 in 10chance of blinding them, or if they’re wearing ahelmet coating their visor, the foam is porous sothere’s no chance they will suffocate. The launcherwill only fire its own ammunition and cannot beused for any other types of grenade. Foam roundsonly have a very small blast radius and will onlyeffect the target.

AGB 307 Air Rifle

It may seem like an old idea and one that doesn’thave a place in today’s modern small arms industry,but Advanced Gunnery Berenyi continue with theirnew perspective on operative weapons when theybring you their high velocity, combat air rifle.Working with specially constructed ultra highpressure canisters, the 307 is able to launch itsunique armour penetrating slugs with a forcecomparable to that of a 5mm pistol round. Totallysafe due to its high quality, molded ceramicconstruction, the AGB air rifle easily contains thepressure necessary to make it an effective weaponagainst lightly armoured opponents, while stillbeing light and easy to handle. Don’t forget eitherthat with the use of an air launch system there is nomuzzle flash and noise of firing is greatly reduced,making it ideal for sniping. Operating in semiautomatic mode the 307 utilizes detachable tenround box magazines and can accept SLA standardsights or laser painting. For those who want adifferent sort of weapon, plus a cheap alternative tostandard ammunition, look no further than the AGB307 Air Rifle. Comes with two 20 shot air cylinders.Cost per cylinder 5c.

Fresh from our extensive research anddevelopment labs, MAL now bring you a newconcept in the ever growing field of small armstechnology, the 12.7mm Combat Assault System.Falling somewhere between a rifle and an SMG thenew MAL 282 CAS is chambered to accept the12.7mm pistol round made so famous for its use inthe BLA Blitzer and is able to utilize the same greatrange of ammunition types. This round, althoughless powerful than its larger rifle derivative, ishighly effective in anti armour engagements and itslighter weight and smaller size allows the use of

compact, large capacity, 120 round, drummagazines, plus the inclusion of a full automaticswitch and burst select. The frame and internal partsof the 282 are all custom cast in durable ceramic toprolong their life and deal with the high stressesproduced when firing, while each gun comes withmolded, rubber coated, grips and stock. Due to theextreme kickback that occurs when firing the CASon automatic settings we factory fit all weaponswith a 100% recoil suppression system speciallydesigned for this project.

MAL T70 Incinerator

Usually only seen on the battlefield or issued forspecialist duties, the MAL T70 Incinerator Gun isnow being made available to SLA operatives inlimited numbers. The weapon is primarily intendedfor use against organic or lightly armoured targetsand is capable of firing a high pressure jet of jelliedfuel up to 10 meters from the user via a speciallydesigned, boosted nozzle system. The special fuelmix that the T70 uses is ignited as it leaves theweapon and becomes a thin high intensity shaft offlame which will continue to burn several secondsafter it strikes a target inflicting even greaterdamage. The Incinerator unit is cast in ruggedceramics and fitted with special heat baffles toprotect the user as well as numerous safety features.The fuel pressure booster and ignition system havea power pack with a 5000 hour user life and allT70s are issued with a full parts and maintenance

guarantee. Due to the relatively short range of theweapon there is no need to fit sights, but for ease ofaiming we are currently offering all Incineratorswith an adapted laser painting unit. The entiresystem including a full 10 shot fuel canister isavailable today. Additional fuel cells are now onoffer at a cost of just 20c each.

CLIP CAL ROF RCL RANGE COST 10 N/A 1 2 5m 800cWEIGHT:6.5kg

Game NotesAlthough the MAL T70 Incinerator is aimed andfired using rifle/shotgun skill it has several specialrules for range and damage. The total effectiverange of the weapon is 10 meters and it is unable toinflict damage over any greater distance, althoughdue to the highly visible jet it gains a +2 to hitbonus. When an armoured target is successfully hitthe jellied fuel gives no automatic wound and has


23

no penetration, it will though damage the armoursID. The initial hit will reduce the armours ID by 8points and will then continue to burn for a further 3actions reducing the ID by a further 2 points peraction unless it is extinguished. If during any ofthese actions the armours ID is reduced to 0 thenthe jellied fuel will cause 5 hits damage and awound and then go out. If the Incinerator should hit an unarmoured target or one that has lost all its IDpreviously it will inflict 10 hits damage and awound the first action it hits and then a further 2 hitpoint damage and a wound per action for the nextthree actions. Any armour type with a PV lowerthan 2 offers no protection against an attack withthe T70. The victim may attempt to beat out theburning fuel after the initial hit by rolling a D10, aroll of 1-3 means the flames go out. If this isattempted with bare hands the person trying willreceive 3 hit points damage and a wound on thatarea, this does not apply if they have armour orgloves the GM deems thick enough to preventinjury. During this time the character may performno other actions. An SLA extinguisher or similartype of product will put out the flames instantlyafter the initial hit. The actual area of effect of theT70 is fairly small and will only effect one bodylocation at a time. Also remember it is possible thatmisses with this weapon in certain environmentswill cause fires.

MAL 559 HEAP Flechette Gun

MAL now bring you a new concept in armourbreaching technology with the introduction of their6mm HEAP Flechette. Fired from a specially designlarge, smooth bore, semiautomatic shotgun, each ofthe 559s 26mm rounds breaks up in flight to form adeadly cloud of ten 6mm explosive armour piercingdarts. These are ideal for inflicting large amounts ofdamage on the target, especially those in the light tomedium armour range. Much more deadly than anycurrently available shotgun round, MAL have

developed the concept of the 556 Flechette Gunwith short range powered armour combat in mind,making it an ideal choice for operatives. The gunitself has full ceramic construction, including itsbarrel, while a reliable gas operated system is usedto feed the ammunition. Each 559 comes with itsown specially fitted laser painter unit and comescomplete with detachable six round box magazinesmaking it fast to reload. MAL will also be fitting allweapons with 60% recoil baffling to help counter

the effect of the rather large ammunition, a problemidentified during our extensive testing of theproduct. Due to the large smooth bore of the 559 itis unable to accept silencers or flash suppressers,but can easily be fitted with an optical sight shouldyou choose.

Game NotesThe 559 Flechette Gun is fired using Rifle/Shotgunskill and due to the cloud effect of the darts has a +2to hit bonus. Attacks are resolved in the usual way,but if successful you must roll to determine howmany of the darts hit the target area. This is astraight roll of two D10s the result of which isdivided by two and then damage from this numberof darts is applied to the victim up to a maximum often. Each dart will cause a separate wound. The guncan only be used against one target area at a timeand even though it fires multiple darts cannot beused for suppressive fire. 26mm Flechette roundsfor the MAL 559 cost 7c each.

At the heart of thisunique system is the special 105mm roundsdeveloped for the project, each one contains anadvanced, explosive propellant surrounded by sixhundred 5mm Ball Bearings of the same typeemployed in the GA 9442 Browbeater and whichwill expand to five times their size when they strikea target. When the weapon is triggered it will launch

the bearings over a 10° arc engulfing any targetswithin range. The reusable launcher comes in overthe shoulder format while each one is fitted withcomfortable padded grips and stock, as well as100% recoil baffles, to help counter theconsiderable kickback produced. Short and handyto use the mere sight of the Claymore Gun shouldmake most people think twice, while the weapongives you the firepower to back up that threat. Dueto the large bore and unique ammunition theClaymore Gun is unable to accept any standardaccessories other than laser painting units andoptical sights. When you’ve got an ongoing riotsituation on your hands, you need something to relyon, so get a KPS Claymore !

WARNING.!

Operative use of this weapon should be carefullycontrolled. If there is likelihood uninvolvedcivilians will be caught in a blast radius the weaponshould not be fired. Failure to follow this advice byresult in the involvement of Internal Affairs.


COST PER 105mm ROUND -15c

Game NotesRolls to hit with the Claymore Gun uses rifle skilland should be aimed at a location rather than aspecific person or body location. The gun receives a+4 bonus to hit due to the dense cloud of shrapnel itproduces. Everyone in a target area is assumed to

take some degree of damage and this variesdepending how far they are from the firer. Roll the specified number of Dl0s for the range shown onthe table for each person in a blast radius and thenapply that number of ball bearing hits to them.Damage and effect is identical to that of the GA9442 Browbeaters ammunition.

FIRST BLAST RADIUS 0-10 Meters x3 D10 Bearings Per Target

SECOND BLAST RADIUS 11-30 Meters x2 D10Bearings Per Target

THIRD BLAST RADIUS 31-60 Meters x1 D10 Bearings Per Target

At any range above 60 meters the ammunition ofthe Claymore Gun is no longer effective and willcause no damage. It should be at the GMs discretionwhat happens when a player misses a shot with oneof these weapons also what penalties occur fromaccidentally wiping out innocent civilians with it.The amount of ball bearings that hit a target shouldalso be modified for partial cover etc.

“At last CAF might be starting to produce weaponsthat will gain a little respect from operatives ratherthan the usual derision. First the XterminatorMicro Cannon and now the VR66 auto rifle. It iswell known that CAF rounds cannot compete withothers in terms of penetration and damage, but thecheapness of them and the fact that it is possible topurchase weapons other than pop guns using themmay begin a trend for their increased use, at leastfor some applications. Perhaps the advertisingreally is true and CAF is biting back after years ofjokes. If the VR66 is anything to go by it certainlylooks like it.”

GASH Spike Taser

Got a heavily armoured target you need to takedown, but have to have him alive to some extent?Then try GASH’s first foray into the projectilesmarket, the Spike Taser.

This specially designed wire is capableof carrying a crippling electrical jolt through it oncethe dart is embedded in your target and one whichshould be enough to put the hardiest opponents outof action. Silent in operation due to the use of agauss rail launch system, they’ll never know whathit them. Both jolt unit and launcher have aninternal power supply good for 3000 hours usageand full money back guarantee, there is alsoprovision to fit a laser painter if the customer shoulddesire.

CAF S16 ‘Bruiser’Pump Action Shotgun

After many years of petitioning by Monarch, SLAIndustries appear to have finally relented somewhatin their strict policy on weapons availabilityconcerning the private law enforcementorganization and have allowed CAF to develop aspecial, new, lightweight shotgun for use by theirofficers. These weapons are intended only be issuedto Monarch officers or for sale to operatives andSLA have forbidden CAF from making civiliansales due to their superiority over the companiesstandard 5mm guns.

The Bruiser is a compact, business likedesign and features a solid cast frame, barrel andtubular magazine fitted with a sliding ‘pump-action’foregrip for rapid reloading. The magazine is fittedalong the underside of the barrel and is reloadedthrough a ‘gate’ on the bottom of the weaponsreceiver, it is capable of holding up to 5 rounds with

an addition round in the chamber. A folding stockcomes as standard, as does a shoulder sling and aspecially modified version of the CAF laser painterto aid in aiming. Additional features include fittingsfor telescopic sights and a special mounting on thebarrel which is designed to hold a standard SLAtorch. Since the weapons use individual shells ratherthan magazines, CAF have also developed anammunition bandoleer to go with the guns which ismade from nylon webbing and can carry up to 30spare rounds. Designed to fire a light .410 shell, theweapons have much greater stopping power thanprevious Monarch weapons at close range and caneasily penetrate a standard flack vest with littletrouble. Despite this though they are still hardly inthe same league as the 10 gauge rounds used in themajority of operative weapons and CAF have beencareful to make sure they cannot be converted tofire more potent ammuntion.

At the moment the S16 ‘Bruiser’ is beingsupplied to Monarch in limited numbers for a trialperiod to test both its effectiveness and monitor itsuse. SLA are also keen to see whether Monarch canbe trusted to keep control of these guns and howlikely they are to find their way onto the BlackMarket. Their use of the unique .410 round isthought to be a preventative measure to help stopthis happening as no other weapons, eitheroperative or civilian, use it and so at least for themoment its manufacture and distribution can becontrolled. CAF is known to be keen for the trial tobe a success as it will open up a new and lucrativemarket for them, which as yet no other sub companyhas access to. To gain additional test data on theweapons performance in combat the Bruiser is nowalso available to operatives in limited numbers andis the chance for a cheap, lightweight shotgun, firinglow cost ammunition, that shouldn’t be missed.

ITB Anti Armour Limpet

Got into a hand to hand situation, but want to end itquickly, then Ian Thomas Bradley bring you thesolution in the form of their shaped charge, antiarmour limpet. Simply let it fall into your hand andslap it onto your opponents armour, the limpet willthen bond instantly into place, at the same timeactivating its in built impact fuse. The specialHEAP, shaped charge used in the limpet will directall the force of the explosion inwards, with minimalrisk to the user from blow back. The easy to mountunder wrist dispenser can hold two of the 60mmlimpets in total safety and has several specialfeatures to prevent accidental triggering. Thespecial multi bond patch on each limpet can adhereto almost any surface or armour type including flesh(although we see this as an excessive use of such aweapon). Cost of the limpet dispenser is 100c and itis fully reusable, while limpets cost 20c each. TheIT AA Limpet system, give your opponent asurprise they’ll never forget (if they live that long).

Anti Armour LimpetDAMAGE-14 PENETRATION-15ARMOUR DAMAGE-6 COST-20c

Game NotesUsing the anti armour limpet is a hand to handbased attack. If the attack is successful then thelimpet is properly attached to the target and willdetonate next action, note no damage is caused bythis attack as the user is slapping the limpet on withan open hand. If the attack fails the limpet has notbeen attached properly and will fall off explodingnext action with BLAST-6 PENETRATION-7 anda blast radius of two meters. A roll of double oneindicates a critical failure and means the user hasfumbled and attached the limpet to their ownarmour.....It is not possible to reload the dispenserduring combat and the hand operating it must beempty, it also cannot be mounted on an arm thatalready carries a weapon such as a KK Panther orVibro Disc gun.

FEN are now able to offer all operatives anothergreat Dante surplus military transport. The RATL20 Infantry Fighting Vehicle is easily converted toa wide number of operative applications and has aproven combat record to back up its reliability andeffectiveness as a military assault and transport unit.All RATs are fitted with full 6x6 wheel drive, allterrain tires and specially constructed suspensionunits allowing rapid and trouble free cross countrytravel, as well as effective use on city roads. Inaddition to a crew of three, the L20 can also beutilized in a personal carrying capacity and its rearbay will hold up to seven fully armoured troops.Deployment is either via the folding rear ramp or byeither of the two sliding side doors the RAT comesequipped with. The RAT’s standard crew consistsof a driver, a gunner and a commander or radio

operator. Both commander and driver sit in forwardpositions and have small roof access hatches abovethem, while the gunner occupies a centrallymounted powered turret position also with a hatch,although due to the RAT’s surplus status noweapons systems are installed on purchase. Most

L20’s will also have three vision slits and weaponsports on each side of the troop compartment,allowing the passengers to employ hand weaponsfrom inside the vehicle. Power comes from an underfloor, 25,000 hour, unit and the RAT is ideallysuited to such tasks as a mobile command base onGreen BPN’s, riot control, or just as an extremelyreliable, well protected transport vehicle. An olderAPC only variant of the RAT L20, known as theL18, is now also available to operatives, this lacksthe central powered turret and instead has astandard roof hatch and universal turret ring fittedabove the passenger bay. The lack of the turretresults in a substantial reduction in the vehiclesweight and so raises its overall top speed, while atthe same time lowering its profile.

FEN 056 Shiver Fire Unit

Employed on the largest and most dangerous fires,where the standard ‘Extinguisher’ vehicles are notenough, these Shiver fire units are perhaps one ofthe most awesome and most feared of the vehiclescurrently operating on Mort’s streets. Intended asheavily armoured, rapid response units they canliterally plow through anything and everything toget to their objective. Mounted on a massive eightwheel chassis, the FEN 056 tenders carry thecomplete range of fire fighting equipment, fromhigh pressure water and foam hoses to smaller

extinguishers, breathing apparatus and rescue gear.Standard crew for the vehicle is three and consistsof a driver and two gunners each of whom isresponsible for operating one of the two large, highpressure foam cannons mounted on 056s roof, thesecome fitted in open topped retractable turrets andboth have a 360 arcs of fire around the vehicle. Inaddition to this the vehicle has seating for an eightman squad of Shiver Fire Fighters in the largepassenger compartment behind the cab. For tacklinghigh level fires the vehicle comes fitted with aspecial hydraulic platform which can be rapidlyraised to a height of twenty five meters and iscapable of carrying up to four personnel as well as afurther two foam cannons. When not in use theplatform folds down into a recess in the vehiclesroof to prevent it being damage if the 056 has tosmash its way through obstacles. Every vehiclecomes with all round high density ceramic armourplating, originally developed for use by armouredvehicles on Dante, which is reinforced in places byspecially strengthened ram plates giving the FireUnits unmatched protection and damage takingability. Fitted with all wheel drive and off roadcapable tires means the 056 won’t slow down whenthe going gets tough or be stopped by having to gocross country if the situation demands. A speciallydeveloped power plant situated under the Fire Unitsfloor allows the tenders to reach speeds unknown inother vehicles of this size and weight, while eachunit has a 30,000 hour operational life. Designedwith just one thought in mind, to get to a fire asquickly as possible no matter what, the FEN 056Unit is ideally suited to its role and it is highlyunlikely that anything will be put forward to replaceit in the foreseeable future.

GA UH-606 Redhawk AAH

A fairly rare sight on Mort, although SLA andseveral of its Shiver units are known to hold a fewunits for emergency use, the Redhawk ArmouredAssault Helicopter is the ultimate in mid-range,airborne troop transportation. This fusion assisted,turbo prop helicopter is capable of a variety ofapplications from cargo lifting to assault and antiarmour roles and can be outfitted with a wide rangeof weaponry and equipment. The hull is covered inspecially developed lightweight ceramic armourpanels, while all 606s have large side doors asstandard to aid in rapid troop deployment and cancarry up to ten personnel with full battle armour.For use either as a gunship or to give support firefor troops deploying into a hot LZ the Redhawk isoutfitted with door mounted 12mm Power Reapers,which are operated by gunners, while in addition thepilot has an 8mm HAS Mini Gun slaved to hishelmet via a HUD system and firing from a chinmounted powered turret.

GA AZ-27 Light Assault Boat

Although there are no seas or other large bodies ofwater on Mort, there is still a call from time to timefor small boats which can be operated in the largerof the cities sewers and on its undergroundreservoirs. It is for this reason that the GA LightAssault Boat was developed early in year 420 andhas been in almost constant use by operatives,Shivers and maintenance crews ever since. A semi-rigid design the AZ-27 can be folded flat to allow itto pass through maintenance covers, tunnels andaccess hatches and then be inflated when it reachesits launch site via a small onboard compressor, aprocess that takes about 90 seconds to complete.The extremely light weight of the craft means that itcan be easily moved by only two people whenneeded. The vessels hull is formed from a mixtureof specially treated, waterproof, ballistic weavecloth and lightweight ceramic armour and employsa system of multiple buoyancy chambers to preventsinking if one section is holed. Propulsion is by asingle hydro-jet outboard motor which has beendesigned specifically for use in the polluted watersof Mort’s sewers and which is capable of propellingthe craft at speeds of up to 20 knots in idealconditions. The powercell on the motor is good forabout 5000 hours use before the need to recharge.The vessels have room for up to a five man squad,in standard armour types, plus their equipment,although this number needs to be reduced if largeamounts of cargo are to be carried. Additionalequipment on the AZ-27 includes two 300 wattheadlights and a single 500 watt search light fittedto the prow, a buoyancy cell repair kit, fouremergency oars and a reinforced ceramic keelwhich allows the craft to be dragged short distancesoverland when needed.

FEN AMV-76Armoured Maintenance Vehicle

However hazardous a sector of Downtown is, thereis still often the need for SLA personnel to enter itto undertake vital repairs to the cities power gridsand other utilities and it was with these tasks inmind that the FEN AMV-76 vehicle was conceived.Intended to carry a team of six engineers and all therequired tools, equipment and parts to undertake avariety of repair tasks, the AMV is a heavilyarmoured, multi wheeled vehicle which is able tooperate under the severest of conditions, includingcombat situations and ongoing riots. Built on aheavy six wheeled chassis unit and fitted with allwheel drive to give excellent performance on bothcity streets and across country, the AMV-76 comewith multi-layer ceramic armour to rival that foundon SLA’s military vehicles. To aid in maintenanceand repair work the 76 has numerous uniquefeatures which include a large front mount bulldozerblade for use in construction tasks and the clearanceof obstacles or wreckage, as well as a powerful roofmounted crane capable of lifting over 15 tonnes.Also provided is a special three man elevatedplatform that can be hydraulically raised to a heightof 20 meters and which allows work to take placewithout the need of ladders or ropes. This can becontrolled either by crew members on the platformor via a remote link from the ground and when notin use folds neatly away on the vehicles roofs. Otherfeatures include a 30 tonne winch, three 1000 wattspotlights, two on the vehicles roof and one on theelevated platform, a large 30,000 user hour fusionreactor which is also able to provide power for avariety of tools via external sockets and a fullysealable NBC proof cabin with 90 hours of internallife support. In addition to seating for six engineersthe AMV has positions for a driver and co-driver,the co-driver having a roof hatch and turret ringabove his seat so that he can act as a gunner insituations where the vehicle needs to be armed.Access to the crew compartment is via two slidingdoors one on each side of the vehicle. Tough,reliable and outfitted for every eventuality theAMV-76 has proved itself over many years ofsterling service and as yet nothing has been able torival its ruggedness and versatility.

GA-077 ‘Atlantis’Orbital Shuttle

A common small orbital craft, the GA-077 is easilyadapted to a variety of tasks and has been in use byvarious branches SLA for over six hundred years.Cheap to build due to its modular design, thestandard Atlantis is capable of both orbital andatmospheric flight making it ideal for shippingcargoes between planetary surfaces and SLA’smany orbital stations or short in system flights. Theinterior of the hull is split into a small forwardbridge and a large rear cargo compartment whichtakes up over 80% of the available space. Thanks tospecial mounting points in the floor, this maincompartment can be configure in a variety of waysand allows the craft to be outfitted to carry severaldifferent types of load including up to four standardSLA cargo pods or with addition seating to act as apassenger transport. Standard crew is two, althoughthere is room in the rear bay for a further eight crashcouches to be installed. The controls are simple touse and incorporates a sophisticated fly-by wiresystems linked to the crafts onboard computer, thisalso allows the Atlantis to be used as an unmanneddrone if required and it can either be flown remotelyor set to follow a pre-programmed route. For orbitaland in system operations the 077 has a small iondrive unit, but for atmospheric flight it relies on twovector thrust turbo fan engines which have theadded benefit of allowing the craft to operate inVTOL mode and to land and takeoff without arunway. The ships life support it good for over 150hours with a full compliment of ten, while theonboard reactor is capable of a 30,000 hour userlife. To save space and reduce costs the Atlantisdoes not have a purpose built airlock and insteadhas a pressure tight door between the bridge andcargo area which allows either one to be de-pressurized when needed. The craft comes with fourexternal doors consisting of two personnel hatchesfitted on either side of the bridge and two largercargo hatches, again on opposite side of the ship,which allow access to the rear bay. Although thestandard Atlantis is not intended for militrayoperations and does not mount any weaponssystems, its heavily shielded ceramic hull does offergood protection against attack and allows thevessels a long user life. An armed variant known as

the 077M does exist, but these are rarely seen onMort and their use is usually restricted to the WarWorlds.

FEN CA UH-204 ‘Cloud Rider’News Helicopter

As a result of SLA’s strict restrictions on flightcapable vehicles on Mort virtually no other subcompany, but the massive FEN, can manage tomake money out of building commercial aircraftand even they only do so in limited numbers. An offshoot of their militray aircraft division, FEN CA (FEN Commercial Aircraft) builds light helicoptersalmost exclusively for Third Eye News and theother Media Companies, the only groups who areallowed to operate them legally over the city andthe cannibal sectors, thanks to a special exemptionby SLA. Most popular of these craft is the UH-204‘Cloud Rider’ a relatively old design based on a,now obsolete, militray model it offers news teams agood combination of speed, protection and cargocapacity and allows a full crew to be carried inaddition to a pilot and co-pilot. Powered by a singleturboshaft engine, the Cloud rider comes with alightweight ceramic and carbon fiber fuselage fittedwith two large sliding cargo doors one either side ofthe passenger compartment, in addition to twosmaller forward hatches for the crew. News teamswill generally fly with these cargo doors open toallow cameramen to operate with an unrestrictedview, despite the fact this can often be extremelyhazardous due to the threat of snipers. The single

large passenger bay can be configured in a varietyof ways thanks to special mounting points in theaircraft’s floor and can either have a maximum ofsix seats or a combination of seats and cargo space.In line with their role as news helicopters FEN CAoutfit the Cloud Riders with several special featuresincluding exterior mounting points for remotecameras, a comprehensive communication suite toallow live broadcasts and full IR/UV vision systemsfor night flying. In addition to these the craft alsocome with three trainable high powered spotlights,two of these are mounted on the cargo doors whilethe third is fitted in a small powered turret beneaththe aircraft’s nose. This is slaved to the pilot or co-pilots helmets via a HUD system and can betargeted in the same way as a weapons systemwould be and used to track a target. The onboardreactor has a user life of 30,000 hours before itneeds recharging and comes fitted with severaladditional power sockets allowing the crew to runequipment such as cameras and lights directly fromit when needed. Thanks to its militray originals, andthe retention of its lightweight ceramic armour, theCloud Rider is both robust and hard wearing,although it needs to be operating in the skies overMort where poor weather, and the threat of attackare constant. Due to the high purchase cost of theseaircraft many of Third Eyes News’s UH-204s havebeen operating for years without replacement anddespite numerous bullet hits from snipers, crashdamage and poor maintenance they still soldier onproof of FEN CA’s outstanding design and buildquality.

Any detonations resulting in propertydamage or loss of civilian life will be closelyinvestigated and if operatives are found to benegligence will result in the involvement of InternalAffairs.

Game NotesThe Blast Rating of C-44 explosives varies on theamount used and is worked out in the followingway. For every 50Grams of C- 44 used in anexplosion a Blast Rating of 1 is added, i.e. when300 Grams are detonated it will have a Blast Ratingof 6, if a Kilogram is used it will have a BlastRating of 20. If C-44 is used on its own these blastswill have no penetration, although this can bechanged by the addition of some form of suitableshrapnel, this can be any sort of hard metal orceramics such as ball bearings or nails and will givea Penetration of 5 to any explosions when added inequal quantities to the explosives used. There is noupper limit on explosion size possible when usingC-44, but players should remembers how SLAviews the use of such items in built up areas, SLAmay also become suspicious if characters buy large quantities of C-44 without good reason. To controlthis GMs may want to limit C-44s use by placingquantity restrictions on players or by imposing theneed for requisitions to obtain it. It should be at GMdiscretion how good C-44 is at a given task such as

demolition and characters should need successfulDemolition Skill rolls to judge quantity needed andplacing for a job. C-44 needs a fuse or detonator tomake it explode it will not go off if burnt.

GMs should feel free to alter the target number tosuit the situation and other different types of doors.On each unsuccessful attempt to break down a doorthe target number is reduced by one for the next try,reflecting the damage the ram has done, i.e. anattempt to break down a heavily armoured door failson the first try, so next time the ram is used the doorwill now break on a roll of 5 or above.

GA Specialist ShotgunAmmuntion

Developed as part of the SD-75 shogun project thisnew range of 10 gauge ammunition from GeneralArmaments allows extreme flexibility in a range ofcircumstances from riot control to urban combat.Not just limited to use by the Striker shotgun, theseshells can be used effectively by any 10 gaugeweapon and give the operative firepower to suitevery situation.

GA SR-01 10 Gauge Riot Round

Developed from similar ammuntion issued toMilitary Police units on War Worlds such as Dante,the SR-01 shotguns round is intended for heavy riotsituations or for subduing particularly strong oraggressive targets. Using the same memory plastictechnology as the standard Browbeater ball bearing,these shells are much larger and so deliver a muchgreater kinetic shock. Originally 20mms in diameterthe SR-01 pancakes out to over five times this whenit hits a target and should be enough to incapacitateeven the strongest or drugged up opponent.

WARNING!These rounds can cause fatalities if missused.

GA SR-03 10 Gauge Gas Round

A new round developed by GA for use in their SD-75 Shotgun, the SR-03 is capable of delivering asmall amount of DA Riot Gas precisely on targetand can be used to incapacitate a single subject

without resorting to the use of a much largergrenade. The front half of the hollow shell isconstructed from a special plastic which shatters onimpact with any reasonably hard target and releasesa cloud of gas approximately 1.5 meters in diameterwhich should usually be enough to engulf a target.Ideal for use in confined spaces where a heavyconcentration of gas is not preferable , the SR-03has the added advantage that it can also be fired attargets up to 90 meters away making it useful forstorming buildings.

DAMAGE-3 PENETRATION-0ARMOUR DAMAGE-0 COST-1c

Game NotesThe SR-06 gas round has identical effects to thestandard DA 240 grenade only with a much smaller,1.5m, area of effect. The round must hit somethingreasonably hard to shatter, an unarmoured targetwill do, and any misses will continue to travel in thedirection they were fired till they do. Aimed shots ata targets unprotected head will increase the PHYSrole to -15 due to the greater concentration of gas.

GA SR-05 10 GaugeAnti-Personnel Round

Intended as a non-lethal anti-personnel round theSR-05 is the most advanced of the specialistammuntion types developed for the GA SD-75project. The shell is effectively a miniatureconcussion grenade and can be used to disorientateor subdue a number of targets through the use ofshock waves and the intense flash of light itproduces when it detonates. The shells area of effectis 3 meters in diameter and rather than relying on animpact fuse for detonation GA have instead optedfor a micro proximity sensor. This feature allowsthe SR-09 to explode in mid air for maximum effectwith sensors on standard shells are set to detonatethe shell at a range of 50 cm.

DAMAGE-n/a PENETRATION-n/aARMOUR DAMAGE-n/a COST-8c

Game NotesSince it is an airburst munition the SR-05 has nodamage penetration etc. It is fired in the normalway, although as it uses a proximity fuse it does notneed to be aimed at a particular body location andhas a +2 to Hit bonus. A missed shot means theshell has not passed close enough to its target toactivate the fuse, in these cases it should be at theGMs discretion what happens to it. Anyone caughtin the 3m diameter area of effect will need to makea PHYS role at -8 to avoid being incapacitated for 2D10 rounds. If the targets have unprotected eyes


56

they must also suffer a -4 penalty to all actionsinvolving sight due to the effects of the shells brightflash, these will last for 3 D10 rounds.

GA SR-07 10 Gauge‘Razer’ Round

Specially designed to prevent over penetration inurban combat or house to house fighting, oftenresulting in unwanted civilian casualties, the newSR-07 ‘Razer’ is intended for use against ‘softtargets’ which are either unarmoured or wearinglightweight, fabric types, such as Padquil or Striker.Also known as ‘Shredders’ the round consists of athin metal container filled with light shot whichbreaks apart when it hits a target giving almost100% energy transfer. Although lethal againstunarmoured targets the rounds have virtually nopenetration when used against hard targets andsimply disintegrate when they hit apartment walls orheavy armour types such as ceramics. This allowsthem to be safely used in Downtown’s apartmentswithout the risk of stray rounds passing through thethin walls and causing unwanted damage or byarmoured troops fighting in confined spaces wherethere is a risk of accidentally hitting members oftheir own team.

DAMAGE-12 PENETRATION-2ARMOUR DAMAGE-0 COST-6c

Game NotesThe damage and penetration of the SR-07 is onlyapplicable when used against ‘Soft Targets’ whichare either unarmoured or wearing lightweightarmour types such as Striker, Padquil Vests etc. Inthese cases the full effect of the round is felt by thetarget, but if the shells hit a hard surface such as awall, solid cover of some kind, or a ‘Hard’ armourtype using ceramics or similar material in itsconstruction, they will simply break apartharmlessly and inflict no damage to the target.

Note the +2 is fromboth systems, +1 from the painter and +1 from theHUD, but the HUD cannot give +1 when used on itsown. The headset takes one action to flip into placeand three actions to power up before it will functioncorrectly. Anyone using an active HUD whileperforming a task other than aiming or shooting willsuffer a -2 modifier due to the disorientation causedby it covering and projecting information onto oneof their eyes. When using the Targeting Monoclethe laser painter can be used to give a bonus at allranges not just optimum and medium.

FEN Reactive Camo

Available to operatives for the first time, this newreactive coating for your personal armour isdesigned to greatly enhance your ability to blend inwith terrain, buildings or vegetation. Special cells in

the coating react and alter color to match theirsurroundings, totally changing the armours colorscheme to one which is suitable for your currentenvironment. This means you won’t be caught outby having Urban camo in the wilderness. Thecoating is able to mimic virtually any type ofbackground and will automatically update itself asthe situation changes. As tough and hard wearing asthe armour it’s bonded to, instillation takes twodays at a cost of 250c. Don’t put up with just onepaint job when with FEN reactive camo you canhave an infinite choice.

Game NotesReactive Camo is not like a chameleons skin itwon’t exactly mirror or change with the backgroundit’s put up against, instead it changes the colorscheme of the armours camouflage to one ofappropriate pattern and tone for the terrain. Thischange from one color scheme to another takesaround five minutes to complete and it should givethe wearer an +3 advantage to their sneaking orhiding maneuvers. The coating is damaged at thesame rate as the armours ID and if degraded too farwill need renewing again at the GMs discretion.

GA-27 Riot Shield

Rather outdated now, although still in serviceamong many Shiver and operative squads on Mort,the GA 27 is a lightweight mounded ceramic shielddesigned for use in riot and crowd controlsituations. The circular shield is molded fromtoughened ceramic and comes in fully transparentformat to allow vision from behind it. Each 60cmdiameter shield comes fitted with a cushioned wriststrap allowing it to be fitted over the users arm,while its lightweight should not slow them down.Many people feel that lack of protection and limitedability to soak up damage has rendered the GA 27obsolete, but its handy size and easy to carry formathave been enough to keep it in production for themoment at least. Cost of the shield plus strap is 50c.

Game NotesAnyone using a GA 27 shield can add -1 to anyattack made on them due to the partial cover itprovides. The shield has a PV of 8 and an ID of 20.Weight of the GA 27 is 5kg.

GA-38 Heavy Riot Shield

Designed as a replacement for the outmoded GA27, the 38 is General Armaments latest piece of antiriot gear now on sale to operatives and Shiver units.Molded from a single sheet of ceramic armour plateand reinforced with a heavy flak fiber weave, theGA 38 offers much better protection than previous

models against a variety of attacks. Each shieldcomes in the form of a curved 140 x 50cm rectanglewith a 10 x 30cm vision slit incorporated into itsupper half. An in-built handle and strap systemmeans the shield can be firmly attached to the usersforearm and should keep it in place whateverhappens. Plus now as an added feature, all GA 38’sare being fitted with a flip down stand to allow themto be used as part of a free standing barricade.Several shields can also be linked in this way torapidly form a cordon. Already winning favor withthose who’ve used it, the GA 38 Heavy Riot Shieldlooks like it’s going to become a worthy successorto the old 27 model. Shield cost is 120c.

Game NotesDue to the size of the shield the user can add -2 toany attack due to the cover it offers. The GA 38HRS has a PV of 12 and an ID of 45. The weight ofthe shield is 9kg.

FEN 42 Anti Riot Unit

Less of a riot shield and more of a mobile barricade,the FEN 42 is ideally suited for crowd controlduties, with its great weight and the protection itoffers the user against a range of attacks. Formedfrom a massive slab of ceramic armour, each antiriot unit has had plates of carbon fiber and flakmesh incorporated into it during its manufacture togive unrivaled strength and durability. Each 170 x65cm shield has a 20 x 40cm sheet of transparentarmour incorporated into its upper section to form avision slit so the user doesn’t have to exposethemselves, while each unit has support legs andspecial grips built into its lower edge allowing easyconversion to a static barricade from behind whichthe user can fight. All FEN 42s also come withspecial brackets along each side, which are used tolink several of the units together to form a solidunbreakable wall, this feature can also be used byShivers or operative squads to speedily set upcordons should the need arise. Comfortably paddedhandles and strengthened quick release arm strapscome as standard. Some feel the great weight andsize of the FEN 42 make it difficult to handle, butfor extreme riot situations its great strength andspecial armour panels mean it can’t be beaten. Theshield is currently on sale to operatives at a price of170c.

Game NotesThe FEN 42 Anti Riot Unit is able to give anyoneusing it for a -3 modifier to any attacks against themdue to its size. Any Character attempting to fightwith one of these units strapped to their arm willsuffer a -2 penalty to their DEX (this does not applyif the shield is free standing and the user fighting

PP-076 ‘Armstrong’Armoured Environment Suit

The standard Environment Suit issued to SLApersonnel throughout the Worlds Of Progress, theArmstrong has been in widespread use since itsintroduction by Power Projects in Year 387 and canbe found employed on a variety of SLA ownedships and orbital stations. The suit is constructedaround a modified version of Power ProjectsPowercell chassis unit and exo skeleton which hashad several additional systems added to it to allow itto function in the vacuum of space. Primary of theseis the replacement of the usual interior lining of thesuit with a special multi-layered pressure garmentwhich not only allows the wearer to operatecomfortably in a range of low or zero atmosphereenviroments, but also incorporates its own computercontrolled heating and cooling system which is ableto automatically adjust to external conditions.Constructed from high density flak fiber weave, theouter shell of this garment was also the first toincorporate a thin layer of sealant gel whichautomatically hardens on contact with vacuum andis capable plugging any breaches in the suitsintegrity before they become life threatening, afeature that PP have repeated on all its other

environment suit designs since. Life support andpower are provided by a compact backpack unitwhich is fitted with an advanced oxygen re-breatherunit and filter system capable of providing air to theuser for up to 20 hours without the need to recharge.A large capacity power cell also comes as standardand can run the Armstrong’s systems continuouslyfor over 8000 hours. In addition to the mainbackpack the suit comes fitted with an additionalemergency chest pack containing a two hour oxygensupply and backup 100 hour power cell. AllArmstrong’s come with UV/IR capable, anti-dazzlevisors as standard as well as two 300 watt shouldermounted spot lights and a 140 watt helmet light. Foruse in zero g enviroments there is the option offitting small micro maneuvering thrusters to thesuits to help prevent the wearer becoming strandedor unable to change their orientation or velocity,these though are only really intended for shortjumps between handholds and were not designedfor traveling any great distance. Since it is primarilyintended for use in low or zero gravity enviromentsthe Armstrong also has the advantage of being ableto carry heavier armour than the standard version ofPowercell. This not only improves its protectionfactor and makes its stronger and more resilient, butalso helps to protect the wearer from such things asmicro meteor hits and other hazards. Issued tooperatives for a variety of missions such asmaintenance reconnaissance or exploration theArmstrong offers both exceptional protection anddurability combined with high build quality and aproven track record.


Game NotesDue to the additional systems and armour theArmstrong carries it is unable to offer the samestrength argumentation as the standard version ofPowercell it is based on.

Welcome to this months special feature, as we take a look into the murky world of what the opposition on thestreets is currently fielding in the way of weapons. Compiled from exclusive sources within SLA and the ShiverPatrol Units, we look at what’s new in the way of home built small arms, plus an in depth investigation of what’scurrently hitting the streets from DarkNight. See what the guys and girls in the front line have to say, as well asfull test data on each item we’ll be looking at, fresh from SLA’s R&D departments. We’ll look into the worryingtrend for DIY weapons and ask major threat? or just fatal explosion waiting to happen? We’ll also be looking atthe 80mm Pipe Gun, possibly the most powerful civilian anti armour weapon to date, and assessing just howdangerous it can be to users and target alike, don’t miss the on the spot opinions of operatives who’ve been in thefiring line. Listen to what the Shivers think of the recent spate of killings using the 10mm DarkNight Pocket Gun,could this be turning into a new craze? Just how effective is 10mm at close range and more importantly where dothey keep getting the ammo from.?

Plus 101 things to do with a CAF, you’ll be amazed what some of these civvies have come up with, is itsafe to let them have even low powered weaponry and ammo when their able to convert it into much moreeffective items? We look at the CAF grenade and a black market conversion kit which can give CAF guns adeadly rate of fire, but remember kids don’t try this at home! We’ll also be giving data on DarkNight’s new lightmachine gun, plus a look at their 12mm sniper rifle and asking is the trade in stolen ammunition enough toosupport wide spread use of these weapons? All this and more, as we dredge the streets of Downtown looking forwhat operative are going to be coming up against, check it out, your life may depend on it....!

DN. 10mm Pocket Gun

A favorite of the covert killer, or just the punk onthe street, these so called ‘Pocket Guns’ have beengrowing steadily in use and are now turning up onthe black market and in civilian hands in increasingnumbers. An extremely simple weapon, it consistsof a short barrel with integral silencer and flashsuppression system linked to a hand grip in which asingle 10mm round can be chambered. The entiregun is no more than 15cm long and can easily beslipped into a pocket or bag for concealment. Thesilencer is surprisingly effective despite its shortlength and with little noise being produced by theweapons action, it is ideal for use in crowded areaswhere background noise will cover the shot. Thewhole unit resembles a flashlight in many ways andis pointed and aimed in a similar manner, thiscombined with short barrel length and lack ofproper sights makes it fairly inaccurate andineffective over any sort of range, but deadly closeup when loaded with HEAP or HP rounds.DarkNight manufactured pocket guns are now bothfairly common and reliable, although we are nowfinding that cruder civilian copies are turning up tomeet demands. We are also sure that these weaponsor ones similar have been responsible for many ofthe, so called, practical joke killings that have takenplace over the past few months.These generallyinvolve killing innocent civilians at random incrowded areas such as shopping malls and seeinghow long it takes for others to work out what’shappened.


Game NotesThe design of the pocket gun and its lack of sightsmeans that it has a -3 modifier to hit at anythingabove point blank range. The gun is also totallyineffective at any range over 15 meters.

“Jeez another dead guy right in the middle of acrowd. Where do they keep coming from? ”“Yeah witness’s reckon he just keeled over, thensomeone noticed the blood. Killer must have usedone of those silenced pocket guns and got away inall the panic.”“Well at least this one got hit with a standardround, I heard some joker was HEAPing people onthe late night buses last week till some operativeswasted him. Some people have got a weird sense ofhumor man !”

Shiver Clean Up Squad.Downtown Mort.

DN.-44 CAF Pepper Pot

The Pepper Pot pistol is becoming a fairly commonweapon among low level DarkNight Citizens andAgents and is designed to be able to utilize thereadily available and legal 5mm CAF ammunition.The 44 is a very simple, close range, personaldefense weapon more intend as a last resort, thanfor use in any offensive capacity. The weaponconsists of a group of five short barrels bondedtogether and firing together to give a volley ofshots, the distinctive look the multiple barrels haveare what give the ‘Pepper Pot’ its name. Althoughonly firing 5mm CAF rounds the number of shotsthe weapon is able to deliver can cause problems for


66

lightly armed operatives especially at close range.Small and lightweight the pistol is easy to concealin a pocket or bag, although the weapons lack ofbulk and of proper grips can cause problems withrecoil as it is fitted with nothing in the way ofeffective baffling. Reloading can also be slow withthe need to manually break the pistol open andinsert individual rounds by hand. Possibly due tothe short effective range of the 44, no capturedexamples have had any provision to fit either sightsor laser painting units and we also assume that noforms of silencers or flash suppressers are availabledue to the Pepper Pots unique arrangement ofbarrels. As with many of the more readily availableDarkNight weapons examples are now finding theirway onto the black market and availability to thecivilian population is increasing, which in turn willinevitably lead to a spate of poorly made copies.

CLIP CAL ROF RCL RANGE COST 5 CAF 5 10 5m 200uWEIGHT:.3kg

Game NotesAlthough the Pepper Pot has a ROF of 5 these shotsare aimed and fired using handgun skill and treatedas a single shot, this is due to the barrels all firing asone rather than in sequence like an automatic burst.Due to the very tight grouping of the shots it isassumed all of them will strike the target area, if theattack is a success each round will then inflict aseparate wound and damage. If the situationdemands the 44 can be fired with less than 5 roundswith a subsequent loss of damage and reduction inrecoil. Reloading takes 1 Action per shell fitted.Due to its short barrels and low poweredammunition the 44 Pepper Pot will become totallyineffective at any range over 30 meters.

DN.-004 Proximity Mine

A fairly sophisticated explosive device often usedby DarkNight agents in ambushes of SLA personnelin areas of Downtown or other terrorist attacks.Instead of relying on tripwires or pressure plates foractivation, the DN.-004 has a built in proximitysensor which reacts to a pre-set target size anddetonates the device when it is within range. Mostmines that have been recovered intact were found tooperate using thermal signatures, but someexperimental models using vibrations sensors oreven sonics have also been found. The sensor unit isgenerally attached to a cylindrical, grenade sizedshrapnel charge, although any bomb size ispossible, and is usually concealed somehow ordisguised as another object when used as aboobytrap. The main problem with the devices isthat they are indiscriminate and once activated

cannot be disarmed remotely, this has resulted innumerous civilian casualties in Downtown wherethese devices were employed and then, for whateverreason, did not catch their intended targets and hadto be abandoned. Another problem which has beennoted is that the thermal based proximity sensorscan often malfunction in extremely low or hightemperatures resulting in premature, late, or nondetonation.

BLAST - 6 PENETRATION - 4 AD - 10COST - 190u WEIGHT - 1.2kg

Game NotesThe Proximity mine has two pre-set factors whichdetermine its detonation. The first of these is theapproximate target size and can be set from anythingfrom a small animal to a large humanoid such as asuch as a Shaktar or Stormer. The mine can either beset to detonate on this size only or this size or above.The second is the proximity of the target to the mineand this can be between 20 and 200 centimeters. Inconditions above 60 degrees centigrade or below 5the mine may malfunction, roll 1 D10 and consult thetable below.

The mine may also be confused by anyone wearingan ECM suit or cape, or a set of powered armourwith thermal shielding of some kind.

DN.-944 Crossbow

There is speculation that DarkNight is currentlystruggling to obtain sufficient supplies of illegalammunition to distribute to its lower level agentsand civilians and that as a result they have beendeveloping other types of projectile weapons. The944 offers an effective and fairly cheap solution tothis problem and although it is not a real threat tomost operative armour types, it is capable ofpenetrating standard Body Blocker, so is often usedagainst Shiver Patrols. Although usually the bowsare used against the mostly poorly armouredcivilians where it can easily pass through Padquil orStriker, for this reason it has been adopted byseveral Serial Killers as their trademark weapon.The crossbows biggest drawback is the extremelyslow reload time and the inability to fire severalshots close together. Some automatic versions havebeen captured over the years, but these are unable toproduce sufficient power to be effective anti armourweapons and still be able to re-cock quickly.


67

Another drawback with this type of weapon is thelarge size and weight which makes the bowsvirtually impossible to conceal and can even causeproblems when put in a large kit bag, for this reasonmost crossbows dissembled to some extent fortransit. Commonly the bows will be used in asniping role where their quiet operation and lack ofmuzzle flash are a great advantage and where manyof the mentioned drawbacks are less evident, this ispossibly why many captured examples are oftenfitted with some form of telescopic sights. Sturdyconstruction and a simple mechanism mean thebows are extremely reliable and the most commontype of bolt used is one constructed from blackmarket SLA ceramics giving high strength and if theuser is lucky a chance of recovering it to use again.

Game NotesReloading of the Crossbow takes 5 Actions (4 on aDEX Roll).The weapon is fired using Rifle skill andthe user must have a strength of at least 6 to be ableto pull the bow back. When ceramic bolts are usedthey may be retrieved and reused if possible.

DN.-101 Pump Action Shotgun

Another new weapon in the DarkNight armorydesigned to take advantage of existing SLAoperative ammunition. The DN101 Shotgun has asimple pump action layout with an under barrel fiveround tubular magazine and a folding stock. Cheapand easy to produce, this weapon has mainly beendistributed to low level agents, but via the blackmarket is increasingly finding its way into civilianhands and has been encountered by Shiver units onseveral occasions. These guns are usually wellmanufactured and reliable and when loaded withproven SLA ammo can be extremely deadly. Thefolding stocks and overall short length make theDN101 fairly easy to conceal in a kit bag or evenunder a long coat, in addition to this some ‘wippet’style conventions have even been found where thestock has been removed all together and the barrelshorted to the barest minimum, although thisseriously reduces the guns effectiveness. TheDN101 shotguns biggest disadvantage is that itsuffers from a slow reload rate, with the need toinsert each shell manually through a loading port onthe right hand side of the weapon. There appears tobe provision on captured examples for fitting of

sights and laser painting, although non so far havebeen found with these accessories.

CLIP CAL ROF RCL RANGE COST 5 10g 1 9 8m 3000uWEIGHT:2.5kg

Game NotesSince the DN101 is a pump action and not asemiautomatic weapon it requires both of the firer’shands to operate for multiple shots. Reloading ofthe tubular magazine takes 2 actions per shell (1, ona DEX roll). If the gun has been converted to ashortened wippet format the optimum range isreduced to 5 meters while lack of a stock increasesthe weapons recoil to 12.

DN. Modular Light Machine Gun

An interesting and rare weapon that’s just starting tocome to light from the DarkNight operativesarmory. The Modular Light Machine Gun appearsto be to some extent a copy of FEN’s Power Reaperweapon, roughly equivalent in fire power anddisplaying the ability to share some of its parts inthe tradition of other DarkNight technology. Thebiggest advantage of this gun though appears to beits ability to be broken down into severalcomponents and then reassembled quickly foraction. The disassembled parts of the gun will fitinto one large or two medium sized kit bags,making it ideal for easy covert movement in andaround Downtown. The weapon comes fitted with alight tripod or bipod to negate its weight and so farno units fitted with waldos have been found,although several had provision for a shoulder sling.Feed is via a 150 round drum magazine, giving animpressive rate of fire in the guns full auto onlymode, although if the weapon is used in a sustainedfire role for long sever heating of the barrel canoccur which eventually degrades its accuracy.Chambering is for the standard SLA 10mm rifleround and weapons will often have a cocktail ofdifferent types in their magazines, reflecting thescavenging that goes on from our own supplies. Atthe minute availability of these weapons is not goodand they appear to be reserved for more elite agents,so it is highly unlikely civilians will manage to gethold of them. The complexity and cost of theweapons must be playing a part in their scarcity onMort, although if DarkNight decide to massproduce them numbers may well increase. Thesmall arms testing department is very eager at themoment to obtain more samples of this weapon foranalysis, as so far only a handful have beenretrieved intact. Interestingly those weapons thathave been tested were found to be able to accept arange of SLA issue accessories such as sights or

laser painters. Operatives should be on the look outfor any agents using this type of weapon and ifpossible attempt to recover them without damage.

DN.-178 12mm Sniper Rifle

Use of this interesting and fairly hard to obtain newDarkNight weapon appears to be on the increase, atleast among their higher level agents and serialkillers. A very simple design the weapon can easilybe disassembled for carrying or concealment byutilizing a quick release barrel and stock making itidea for use in covert operations. The 178 uses asemiautomatic action feeding from a streamlinedremovable box magazine and several examples wehave had the chance to examine were fitted withfolding bipods. The weapons that the TestingDepartments have managed to obtain were found tobe reliable and hard wearing, although recoil can berather excessive with little in the way of bafflingsystems being present in the design. Many of theserifles have been used in ambushes against SLAoperatives or Shiver patrols, a role they are ideallysuited for and most were found to be fitted withsilencers either of SLA manufacture or home builtdesigns produced by DarkNight. Some of oursamples were also found to be fitted with SLAmanufactured laser painters and optical sightsystems, presumably of black market origins,demonstrating a definite intention for these weaponsto be able to use SLA accessories. The fact that12mm Rifle ammunition is not so widely used byoperatives and hence harder to obtain on the blackmarket, may be a factor in preventing massproduction and widespread use of the DN.-178 rifleamong DarkNight agents and their subsequentspread to citizens hands.

DN. Vibro Sword

Obviously finding the supply of stolen SLAmanufactured hand to hand weapons on the blackmarket inadequate for their needs, DarkNight haverecently begun to produce their own Vibro Swordfor issue to field agents. Shorter and more compactthan the DPB Vibro Saber, this new DarkNightsword appears to operate in a very similar mannerand even has provision for the interchanging ofparts from SLA equipment, greatly aiding inmaintenance. Although the finish on some of theunits is crude, the high frequency oscillation systemis soundly built and reliable, while the built inpower unit will run the sword for about 4000 hours.At the minute the swords appear reasonably rare,perhaps due to limited production, or that the unitsso far retrieved have been ones undergoing fieldtrials in Downtown prior to a more widespreadissuing. In the future it is highly likely thatavailability of the DarkNight Vibro sword willincrease and a corresponding fall in price willoccur.


CAF 5mm DumDum

Home made DumDum ammunition is an easy wayto improve the efficiency and damage capacity ofthe readily available CAF rifle and pistol rounds.The heads of standard 5mm rounds are flattenedand hollowed out causing them to behave erraticallywhen striking a soft target, either flattening out ortumbling and thus causing much more sever woundsto the victim. Needless to say the ballistics andpenetration of the rounds suffer when thesemodifications are carried out, although since theycan be done easily, with virtually no skill, they costno more than normal CAF rounds to produce. Manyminor Serial Killers have favored this type of rounddue to its spectacular wounding effects when usedagainst an unarmoured opponent. The readyavailability of CAF ammunition has also made thisproblem virtually impossible to stamp out.

DN.-778P Gas Mask

This item has been appearing in increasing numbersamong DarkNight operatives and particularlycivilians. From testing we assume that it has beendesigned specifically to counteract the effects ofRiot Gas deployed by Shiver units and so is beingwidely distributed in the cities main trouble spots.Cheaply manufactured in flexible rubber and plasticthe mask covers the whole of the users face andincorporates a transparent visor to protect thewearers eyes. Filtration is provided via a simplereplaceable cartridge unit attached to the left handside of the mask. Black market cost of this item isapproximately 50u. Replacement filters cost 10ueach.

Game NotesDue to the items cheap productions, the mask is not100% proof against DA240 Riot Gas, but is able toreduce the PHYS Roll to -2 against its effects.There is also a chance the filter unit is faulty andwill offer no protection. Roll 2 D10 when the maskis first used, a result of double one means the filterhas failed and the user must take full effects of thegas.

CAF Grenade

Yet another example of Civilians use of readilyavailable CAF ammunition for illegal purposes. TheCAF grenade, as it is becoming known, has noconnection to official CAF manufacturing, butemploys roughly 25 of their 5mm rounds in itsmake up. The propellant from these are used topower a crude grenade type weapon, which is handthrown, a simple fuse system and safety catch isfitted to allow easy activation. Manufacturingtechniques are dubious and reliability is often notgood with these grenades either failing to go off ordetonating prematurely causing injury to the user.Despite this armour penetration and damage isfairly impressive, especially if the body of thegrenade has been made from a material thatprovides good shrapnel and operatives should bewary if they have low armour types.

10 Gauge Sawnoff Shotgun

The exact manufacturer of these weapons remainssomething of a mystery, despite extensive testing ofsamples, some do appear to come from DarkNightsources, while others are so crudely put togetherthey can only have come from underground civilianworkshops. These short, double barreled shotgunscan be extremely deadly at close range using eithersolid or shot rounds and even have the capacity toinflict wounds on armoured opponents, it isprobably for this reason that they are proving sopopular and copies are growing in numbers. Thebiggest drawback of this type of shotgun is thatreloading can be slow due to the break open designand the need to insert individual shells manuallygiving it a low rate of fire. A further problem cancome from the extreme recoil caused by lack of aproper stock and the shortened barrel the gunspossess. At longer ranges this can seriously effectthe accuracy of the weapon. It is unlikely thatoperatives will encounter many of these guns fittedwith sights or laser painters and non of the exampleswe have examined even had mounting points toaccept such accessories. It will not be surprising ifover the next few months we see many moreSawnoff Shotguns on Downtown’s streets as peoplebegin to see its potential as cheap easy to concealfirepower.

CAF Full Auto Kits

In recent months there have been several worryingreports from both Monarch and Shiver units ofencounters with civilians armed with full automaticfire CAF weaponry. After examining severalcaptured examples we have been able to deduce thatthis is due to some form of home installedconversion kit available on the black market and ofpossible DarkNight manufacture. This kit replacesitems such as the weapons slide and trigger groupwith specially modified items which then allowthem to attain high rates of automatic fire. Due tothese kits pushing CAF weapons far beyond theiroriginal design parameters, reliability is not goodand we have had several reports of weaponsjamming or even exploding in action. This is mainlya result of the CAFs mechanism becomingexcessively worn over a short period of time, sincethe weapons were never intended to operate at suchhigh cyclic rates.

80mm Pipe Gun

The Pipe Gun seems to be another in a long andworrying line of home built civilian weaponsintended for use against SLA personnel. Possiblyfollowing a design originating from DarkNightsources the Pipe Gun is a simple ‘bazooka’ typeweapon, with an approximately 80mm bore, whichfires a crude armour penetrating slug, the main bodyof the gun is usually formed from a single length ofmetal pipe, hence its name. From capturedexamples the rounds for these weapons appear tohave been manufactured from CAF ammunition andother easily obtainable materials, although this doesnot seem to detract from their effectiveness. Sincethese guns have been put together by mostlyunskilled civilians, quality and reliability varygreatly and from reports we have had serious andpossibly fatal malfunctions can occur during theiruse. This type of weapon is generally fired by acrew of two consisting of a loader and gunner, tospeed up its rate of fire and this sort of team havebeen encountered several times during ambushes ofShiver units.

weapon is fired a D10 must be rolled to determineif it functions properly. The gun must roll above 1for a successful shot, but each shot adds a -1modifier to the next roll i.e. after four rounds havebeen fired without trouble the Pipe Gun will have -4on its next malfunction roll so needs a five orabove. An overall result of zero on this roll meansthe round is a dud and does not add a modifier, butthe gun must be reloaded.

Spike Cannon

Another crude, but effective, hand weapon nowturning up in fairly significant numbers fromDowntown’s numerous back street workshops, theSpike Cannon is extremely easy to construct fromreadily available materials and despite its singleshot capacity offers much better range, penetrationand potential damage than a CAF. Usingcompressed gas as a propellant, the weapons consistof a large high pressure tank connected to a simplevalve and a long smooth bore barrel. Into the barrelis loaded a hardened metal spike roughly 200 mm inlength and 20mm in diameter which is then firedfrom the gun by operating the value rather in themanner of an oversized air rifle. Simple to build, theweapons are surprisingly reliable and can oftenpenetrate low level armors such as Blocker withlittle trouble, the main difficulty comes withobtaining and re-charging the gas cylinders whichrequires access to a large compressor of some kind.Big and bulky the weapons are usually seen fittedwith crude stocks and grips and there have evenbeen captured examples mounting laser paintingunits. The biggest disadvantage of the Spikecannon, apart from its weight, is this need to bereloaded after each shot which means it is morelikely to be encountered during ambushes than openconfrontations. Although design and exactmanufacture of these guns varies greatly they allappear to have rough equivalent power and onaverage are capable of firing 20 shots before the gascylinder need recharging or replacing.

Fighting Glove

A common hand to hand weapon found among thegang members and the civilian population ofDowntown. The Fighting Glove consists of aheavily armour gauntlet reinforced with plates ofceramic and fitted with any number of sharpenedlaminated blades extending over the users knuckles.Commonly the glove is also weighted to aid withimpact and penetration damage. Operatives shouldnot underestimate the danger from this unpoweredweapon when wielded by a strong skilled opponent,especially one on body enhancing drugs, as it oftenhas the capacity to penetrate through some of thelighter body armour types. Virtually all of this thesetypes of weapons are of home manufacture and forthis reason style and quality can vary greatly, whatnearly all of these Fighting Gloves have in commonis their reliance on stolen or black market SLAmaterials. This type of weapon is often favored bymany serial killers due to its ease of concealmentand the distinctive damage it inflicts. Like knivesthere is very little chance of stamping out this sortof weapon and is use is likely to remain high amongcivilians.

Electro Combat Saw

In their hunt for more lethal weapons with which toinflict damage upon each other and Mort’s PoliceUnits, some in the civilian population of Downtownappear to have hit on the idea of adaptingcommercially available power tools. Most effectiveof these home built devices and possibly most

reliable, is commonly known as the ‘Combat Saw’.This weapon consists of a hand held cutting unitwith a circular blade anything from 10-30cms indiameter, attached via a power cable to a back orbelt carried portable power unit. It is also usual forthe ‘angle grinder’ style cutter unit to have beensouped up in some way to give it performancebeyond its original design specification and renderit capable of breaching some of the lower armourtypes, including Body Blocker. These home builtweapons can often be extremely crudely puttogether, but despite this they are still effective andhave figured in several recent Serial Killer caseswhere their use against unarmoured victimscaused particularly horrific injuries. After thetesting of a range of recovered examples of this typeof weapon, they were found to be on averagecapable of around 2000 hour continuous operationon one power pack and relatively free fromhazardous malfunctions or parts failures (althoughblades often needed replacing).

CAF Grenade Launcher

Based around the design of the smaller civilian builtSpike Cannon, these reasonably new weaponsutilize the same idea of using compressed gas ofsome type as a propellant, although in this case,rather than firing a simple projectile, the guns areintended to launch a home made CAF grenade. Thebasic weapon is essential the same as a SpikeLauncher and consists of a long smoothbore barrel,trigger valve and gas cylinder, although since thegrenades are bigger and heavier they requireconsiderably more compressed air to fire them over


73

an effective distance. For this reason the gascylinders must be much larger and generally have tobe either carried by a second person or fitted with ashoulder harness and worn on the firer’s back,rather like a divers bottle. Instead of having anactivator pin and delay fuse, the grenades used inthese types of launchers are generally fitted withsimple impact fuses which detonate them when theyhit a reasonably hard surface. These fuses thoughcan often be extremely temperamental due to poormanufacture and have even been known to be setoff by the shock of the launcher firing, detonatingthe round before it clears the barrel. Even if a roundis fired successful it is still just as likely as any otherCAF Grenade to malfunction and prematuredetonations or duds are common. Despite this, thesesort of launchers are the closest most civilians organgers are going to get to acquiring heavyweapons and the numbers being built andencountered in Downtown have been steadily risingover the last eighteen months. The GrenadeLauncher also has the added advantage of beingable to ‘lob’ its rounds over obstacles such as wallsor through windows and attack targets from abovewith indirect fire. Launchers and their ammuntionvaries greatly in quality and competency ofmanufacture, but most have around the same levelsof performance and few are capable of firing morethan 10 or 12 rounds without needing a fresh gascylinder.

Solvent Bomb

Home built for use against powered armouredtargets, the solvent bomb is an extremely ingenious

way of damaging this type unit to the point whereeven unpowered non ballistic weapons can be usedwith relative success. The solvent bomb consists ofa potent mixture of home brewed chemicals,contained within a thin vial or sealed glass bottle,this is then thrown at the target where it will eatthrough ceramics or armour weaves, seriouslyeffecting their performance. This is not usually aproblem with high armour types, but with systemssuch as Body Blocker it can easily reduce theirprotection factor to zero. Due to the powerful natureof the solvents used they can also have an effect onexposed skin and for this reason several SerialKiller cases involving this sort of weapon have beenreported over the last few months. Exact origins forthe solvents formula is unknown, although it issuspected to be originally from DarkNight and thatseveral variations of it exist. Cost 70u each.

Game NotesThe Solvent Bomb is classed as a hand thrownweapon, it doesn’t detonate as such and is smallenough to only effect one body location. Asuccessful hit on an armoured location will cause 2points of impact damage, but with no penetrationand the solvent will then begin to eat away at thearmour reducing its I.D by 3 points per action forthe next three actions. Once started there is no wayto stop this effect. If the bomb hits an unarmouredlocation or burns through to flesh it will cause 3 hitpoints damage to the victim per action for the nextthree actions. I.E. if the solvent burns through thearmours I.D on the first action then it will burn thetargets skin doing 6 hit points damage over the nexttwo actions. This burn damage is in addition to the2 hit points caused by the impact. If solvent hits anunarmoured head there is a 4 in 10 chance it willblind the victim quiet probably permanently unlessthey receive immediate medical care.

“Oh hell, another present from the ‘Solvent Killer’is that a cheesy name or what. Looks like hedumped this guy in a vat of the stuff rather than justthrew a couple of vials at him, think he carries itround in a bucket or something?

Scavanger 10mm‘Wrecker’ Assualt Gun

A popular weapon among Downtowns populationof Scavengers, 10mm Assault guns are generallybuilt from salvaged or stolen FEN Power Reaperstaken from SLA vehicles such as the Shiver SCAFbike. Compact and deadly, ‘Wreckers’ have short,cut back barrels and modified stocks to make themeasier to handle in confined spaces such as sewertunnels and rather than the usual SLA waldo mountusually have an improvised carrying sling andharness fitted to them. Since most vehicle mountedReapers do not have easily removable belt feeds theScavengers will commonly fit the guns with largecapacity drum magazines of their own manufactureinstead. These are usually capable of carrying up to200 rounds of ammuntion and allow reasonablelong periods of sustained fire. In profile theWrecker more resembles an oversized SMG than alight machine-gun and despite fact that themodifications limiting its range somewhat its use of10mm rifle ammunition makes it a potent anti-armour weapon and one that operatives should bewary of. Sights, laser painting and other accessoriesappear on these weapons in a purely random natureand their addition simply revolves around what theoriginal builder had at hand at the time. It shouldalso not be forgotten that despite all themodification and changes the Wrecker is still a FENand so unless the mechanism has been tamperedwith should still be reliable, hard wearing andaccurate. A handful of the guns have also turned upin civilian hands and SLA are keen to recover theseand any others encountered in an attempt to tracetheir origins.

HV Nail Gun

Another weapon that was originally intended as aharmless hand tool, the High Velocity Nail gun canoften be as powerful as a small caliber pistol whenproperly modified and this combined with theirsemi-automatic action has made them increasinglypopular among civilians and gang members.Originally intended for use in a variety ofconstruction and repair tasks, these guns are capableof punching specially hardened ceramic nails intoseveral inches of metal or concrete. Normally theyare only intended to be operated at a range of about5 centimeters, but when appropriately modified andwith their safety restrictions overridden this can beextended to anything up to 90 meters. Hydraulicallydriven with power coming from a small onboard

pack the gun is fed with 30 round clips of nails andis capable of firing over 200 rounds before it needsrecharging. Although fairly bulky the HV Nail Guncan still be used one handed as a pistol, althoughsome rifle versions with stocks have been seen, andcan often out perform CAF fire arms at shortranges. Theft of these items from Mort’sconstruction sites is now on the increase and therehas been a significant number of recent incidentsinvolving them in Downtown, including severalserial killer who have made them their weapon ofchoice.

Combat Chainsaw

A deadly new fad among the youth of Downtown,the Combat Chainsaw is a good example of the sortof sick ingenuity going on in the minds of some ofMort’s citizens. The chainsaw is adapted from astandard commercially available unit and the qualityof the work can vary greatly. Usually the saw isrefitted with easier to handle grips, while most ofthe units built in safety features are either removedor overridden, there is little else that really needs tobe done to turn it into an effective weapon. Despiteits rather dubious origins the Combat Chainsaw issurprisingly effective against a variety of operativeissue armour and the threat this weapon posesshould not be underestimated. When the saw is usedagainst an unarmoured opponent the resultingwounds are spectacular to say the least and as withmany of the other distinctive street weapons is oftenseen in the hands of Downtown’s many SerialKillers. The Combat Chainsaw uses the same typeof power unit fitted to the original unit and allowsthe weapon to run for anything up to 3000 hoursnon stop. Unless the internal mechanism has beentampered with the saw will also be fairlymaintenance free and reliable to use. There havebeen several rumors circulating recently from unitsassigned to Cannibal Sectors and sewers thatCarriens have been seen carrying this type ofweapon rather than the more usual hockey sticks orclubs, although as with their armour, how theywould obtain such items remains a mystery.

RX-4 ‘Burner’ Powered Armour

A sight becoming increasingly common on thestreets of Downtown and among its gangs, the RX-4Burner is one of the cheapest sets of poweredarmour yet encountered by operatives and itsobvious superiority over CAF vests is making itpopular among both civilians and low level enemyagents. As yet SLA has been unable to trace theprimary components of the Burner to any knownSoft Company source and since the suits are sold askits and require various other black marketcomponents to complete, this task is provingparticularly difficult. The basic Burner kit consistsof a low level powered sub-frame, exo skeleton andpower pack fitted with feedback and controlsystems onto which the user can bolt ceramicarmour, flak mesh and any other components theycan acquire to give the suit a protective shell. Theresulting item is a serviceable, although some whatcrude, set of armour around the protection level ofBody Blocker. The main defect in the designappears to be under-powering of the chassis unitwhich can often result in slow response times andproblems with maneuverability. This is often furtheraggravated by the unskilled builder adding far tomuch weight of armour than the unit was intendedfor and using unsuitable materials such as iron andsteel in an attempt to increase the protection levels.When built correctly and using lightweight ceramicsthe suits can be reasonably effective and have a userlife of around 2000 hours before the need torecharge. Having said this most suits so farencountered by SLA personnel have been a crazycollection of mismatched parts and bolted onweapons, accessories and armour utilizing anythingfrom Striker Bike Helmets to stolen Crackshot chestplates, ending up with something akin to the suitsworn by Downtown’s Carriens. Extensive study hasrevealed a certain amount of uniformity in thismadness and has allowed the RX-4 Burner to becategorized into three main types, light, mediumand heavy depending how much armour etc. hasbeen added.

Analysis of the design has revealed that muchof the technology used in the suits comes from theolder, and much clumsier, DN. 01000 and thatmany of the advances in performance have beenachieved by pushing more power through thechassis unit and discarding several features such asan internal life support system in favor of a simplerand lighter filter mask. Running the power system atsuch extremely high levels does have its drawbacksthough and in those example we have been able toacquire it was found that the suits operation life is amere 2000 hours, over 50% that of the DN. 01000.The chassis units can also be subject to unexpected‘burn-outs’ possibly as a result of them beingpushed beyond their original design specifications,or a lack of high quality components. DarkNightthough obviously see these problems as a fair tradefor the suits greatly enhanced strength and improvedperformance, something sorely lacking in some oftheir earlier designs. Use of the 01600 Dancer

seems to be on the increase as many DarkNightAgents recognize its obvious advantages and thereeven seems to have been a certain number of trial‘field conversions’ undertaken in an attempt toupgrade existing stocks of older suits to the 01600specification.

DN. 00989 ‘Warrior’ InfantryArmour

Like the ‘Dancer’ the new Warrior powered armoursuits are an upgraded and modified version of anexisting model, apparently in an attempt to avoidthe costly research and development needed toproduce a totally original design. Based on thechassis unit of the older model 00985, widely usedon many of the companies War Worlds, with thedevelopment of the Warrior DarkNight haveendeavored to produce a more durable infantry suitfor issue to both their militray units and their agentson Mort. By increasing the power output of the00985’s chassis unit and adding additional plates ofcompressed ceramic armour, the resulting suit issuperior in both projection value and damage takingability. The Warrior also comes with a superiorfeedback and control system as well as improvedpower management which prevents it fromrestricting the users movements despite the additionweight of armour it carries, something that seems toplague many of DarkNight’s earlier designs such asthe 01000. With the improved performance of thesuit an enlarged powercell also needs to be fittedand this has the added benefit of increasing theWarriors user life to 4000 hours despite the higherpowered demands from its systems. Otheradditional features include a set of full air filters inthe helmet, though to have been prompted by theincreased use of biological and chemical weaponson the War Worlds, and a head mounted 150 wattspot light. Although fairly new, the 00989 Warrioris rapidly replacing many of DarkNight’s older, lowlevel armour systems and is finding favor with itsagents due to the improved protection it gives,allowing them to be more evenly matched with SLApersonnel.

DN. 2020 ‘Vulcan’Powered Armour

Another step forward in DarkNight’s use ofpowered armour, the Vulcan suits demonstrate avariety of technical advances over earlier models inboth maneuverability and protection afforded to thewearer. By streamlining and enhancing the poweredchassis they’re using, DarkNight seem to havesolved many of the problems with mobility found inearlier suits, while the added strength in theskeleton allows the unit to carry more armour thannormal. The captured examples of these suits thatthe testing department have managed to obtain werefitted with air filtration, although seem to lack aninternal oxygen supply, after further research wefound that the Vulcan’s power unit was good forroughly 6000 hours continuous use. This suit seemsto indicate that DarkNight are putting a lot of effortinto the development of higher level armour andseem to be aiming at production of a unit to rivalthe SLA Dogeybone or Crackshot. The 2020Vulcan represents the closest they have come to ityet, although from what we can judge the suits arestill undergoing field trials and are only beingissued in limited numbers to DarkNight’s higherlevel agents and contract killers. Examples of thisarmour still remain rare and the testing departmentsare extremely keen to obtain more samples forevaluation. Any operatives encountering examplesof the 2020 should make every attempt to recoverthem for analysis, preferably as intact as possible.

DN. 0056 ‘Vesta’ Urban AssaultVehicle

Due to the difficulty of smuggling armoured vehiclesonto Mort, DarkNight have instead adopted a policyof adapting easily available SLA civilian modelsthrough the use of mass produced add on kits toimprove both their armour and performance. Mostcommon of these is the 0056 ‘Vesta’ which can bemounted on most types of civilian car with onlyslight modification. Firstly most of the non essentialbody work such as wheel arches and trim is cut awayand the doors are welded shut to improve thevehicles structural integrity. The remaining bodypanels then have light ceramic and laminated carbonfiber plates riveted onto them to boost the carsprotection values. To deal with the added weight ofthe armour the vehicle now carries the cars drive unitalso generally needs to be ‘tuned up’ and have abooster module added to allow it to produce a higheroutput. All glass is removed for safety reasons andreplaced by armoured vision slits and reinforcedgrills, while if their available all terrain tires will be

fitted to help improve handling and give a limitedcross country capacity. Armourment is usuallyrestricted to hand weapons employed by the Vesta’spassengers, but in some cases heavier items aremounted. This usually requires the removal of anyrear seating and the mounting of a specially designedhatch and turret ring on the vehicles roof. This isdesigned to accept a range of infantry weaponsincluding Power Reapers, DarkNight machine-gunsand a range of other automatic weapons. Crew is fourin a standard Vesta and three in an armed version,while power is provided by a standard 5000 hourreactor unit. Although no match for a true armouredvehicle such as a SLA APC, the Vesta UAV providesa cheap, readily available alternative and whenemployed correct can be surprisingly effective forsuch things as hit and run raids, drive by shootingsand when used against relatively poorly armedShivers or Monarch officers. Also, worryingly, inrecent months there have been reports of Vesta kitsbeing acquired by various gangs and other civiliangroups, a situation which SLA is monitoring closely.

DN. 00125 ‘Hagar’ Attack Bike

Like the Vesta armoured car, the DN.00125 AttackBike is a heavily modified version of acommercially available SLA product which hasbeen upgraded using an easy to install add on kitproduced by DarkNight. In the case of the Hagarthis can be fitted to most types of civilian motorbikeand is intended to turn them into fast, low cost,attack vehicles for use by the companiesInterceptors and raiding parties on Mort. The maincomponent of the kit is a specially constructedarmoured fairing which is welded onto the bikesframe and which helps to provide improvedprotection for the rider and single passenger. Abooster unit is also added to increase the vehiclespower to weight ratio and maintain its performance,as are improved suspension units which are neededto prevent the handling being degraded by theadditional armour. For their raiding role Hagar’sneed to be armed and for this reason DarkNighthave developed a specially gun module which can

be quickly mounted on the bikes handle bars andwhich is intended to carry a pair of DN.80 SMGs.These are fed by two large capacity snail drumseach of which carries 120 rounds of 10mmammunition and are fired via servos and a trigger onthe left hand grip. Power comes from a 3000 hourreactor and despite the numerous add ons, thanks toits booster, the Hagar is still capable of achieving itsoriginal design speed of 280 kilometers per hour.No match for even the lightest of SLA’s armouredvehicles, the Hagar’s high speed, and its ability topass through narrow gaps where APCs and otherpatrol vehicles cannot go make it ideal for certaintypes of ops in Downtown such as ambushes and hitand run attacks. The vehicles are also easy to hidedue to their small size and can even be housed incivilian apartments if needed making themparticularly difficult to trace. Since these bikes arealso cheap to build and mainly use readily availablecomponents it was inevitable that they would alsobegin to appear in civilian hands and recently theiruse by gang members has begun to cause problemsfor SLA’s Downtown units. Many also speculatedthat DarkNight might selling off these conversionkits, without weapons, at a reduced price to help stirup trouble in Downtown and mask their ownactivities.

CAF Body Armour

Yet again CAF equipment on sale to the civilianpopulation of Downtown has turned up in anadapted form. This time the CAF Padquil Flak Vesthas been used to manufacture what amounts to acrude form of body armour, which although homebuilt can offer greater protection to the user than thestandard vests. Construction of the armour is fairlysimple, the flak mesh material from several CAFvests is cut up and then rejoined into a bulkyarmoured coverall often further reinforced withplates of scrounged ceramic armour. The source ofthese parts is usually the powered armour suits ofdead operatives or Shivers. This unpowered suit hasthe disadvantage of weighing the wearer down, butafter testing we found that it had reasonable


78

stopping power against standard SLA 10mmammunition and a lesser degree of protectionagainst other types. The original concept appears tocome from DarkNight literature that has beencirculated around Downtown and this sort ofarmour is usually employed by their very lowestlevel agents or by Gangers. Its bulk and its inabilityto be easily disguised makes CAF body armourparticularly unsuitable for covert work. Cost ofthese suits on the black market can vary reflectingavailability and variable quality of manufacture.

Game NotesDue to the weight and bulk of this type ofunpowered suit the wears DEX is reduced by 2while they have it on. The weight of the armour willalso be a factor in their load carrying ability.

YX ‘Crusher’ Powered Armour

Rather than being a specifically produced kit likethe Burner series of armour, the YX CrusherPowered Armour type appears to have resulted froman attempt by a, as yet unknown, soft company todisposing of surplus powered armour chassis unitsby dumping them on Mort’s black market. Thesehave been quickly snapped up by various groupswho are now converting them into fully functionsuits by adding their own scrounge electronics,armour and control systems in a similar way to theBurner concept. The Crusher chassis has obviousappeal due to its ability to carry a significant weightof armour and even allows a limited degree ofstrength argumentation if the design specification isnot exceeded, it is also capable of operating for upto 5000 hours without recharging and has enoughsurplus power to run various sub systems such aslights and air filtration.. At first SLA’s researcherswere puzzled by the fact that such, apparentlyadvanced, components were being sold for such lowprices, but since acquiring several examples fortesting the reason has quickly become clear. Afterseveral hours of continuous use the chassis unitsbegin to display numerous problems which can bedirectly traced to defects in the constructionmaterials used generally resulting in fractures andloss of structural integrity. Presumably these faultswere not discovered till after the first productionruns of the chassis and as soon as they were thecompany simply dumped them on the black marketwhere they were quickly snapped up by the gulliblewho never though to question the lowness of theprice. Despite these obvious faults, operativesencountering Crusher units should be wary as when

fully functional they can protect the user from avariety of small arms fire and if built correctly canpose a significant threat. For ease of identificationthe YX Crusher has been broken down into to sub-classifications which donate how much armour hasbeen fitted to the chassis unit. The first of these isknown as the Standard and we estimate it carriesroughly the same weight of armour the chassis wasintended for and so permits limited strengthargumentation. The other main type is known as theSuper Crusher and in the same way as the variousBurner units has had excessive amount of armourfitted or the user has utilized those of aninappropriate type. This results in the suit offeringmuch better protection, but with the loss of itsenhanced strength, although due to the use of amore advanced chassis system this does not seem tolimit the suits maneuverability.
