Image Source: Artstation
Intent: To create a weapon to be used with flechette rounds for private customers of Cerberus Enterprise.
Development Thread: N/A
Manufacturer: Cerberus Enterprise
Model: AA - FSA "Thorn"
Affiliation: Cerberus Enterprise purchasers/and or people provided as reward from Atheus/Faction
Modularity: Limited
Production: Semi-unique
Material:

Classification: Flechette Rifle
Size: Handheld,
Length: 72cm
Weight: 2.85kgs
Ammunition Type: Gas propelled system, Flechette Rounds
Ammunition Capacity: 20
Effective Range: Personal, Battlefield
Rate of Fire: semi-automatic
Special Features:

  • Lightweight frame
  • Heat resistant
  • Thermal Radar
  • Compass
  • Heartbeat Sensor
Strengths: (Provide, in list format, a minimum of 1 strength of this submission.)
  • Altered via the force to provide a limited form of Force Reflex. Allowing the person wielding this weapon to have a much better perception around them. Giving really good situational awareness to the user. This can allow people to react to situations faster, however, it does not physically increase someone's reaction time.
  • A rather lightweight rifle. Made out of Carbon fiber, and Hybrid Flexisteel for the main frame components, with Dallorian alloys for the barrel and the gas operated system to resist heat, as well as a very durable metal.
  • Flechette rounds can pierce through leathers, Armorweaves, and lighter plate armor. There is chance it can crack medium plate armor, or dent it, but heavy armors are resistant to it. As well, There are many flechette rounds that could be used with this weapon.
Weaknesses: (Provide, in list format, a minimum of 1 weaknesses of this submission.)
  • While the weapon is lighter, it means there is a little bit more recoil than expected from the weapon. Firing rapidly with this rifle is very much possible, but those not trained or used to the weapon can find it difficult to control the recoil for longer ranges.
  • Flechette rounds are heavier than standard slugs, and are much longer than the casing and bullet. This can cause force users who have Mastery of telekinesis to alter the flight path, or stop the flechette round itself. As well, Wind resistance plays a major faction in long range engagements.
  • Thermal Radar can be shut down with EMP's and the compass can be altered to change direction when within close proximity to high powered magnets, or when within range of a very powerful force nexus. *Planet sized, Location size, and limited unique artifacts*
Description:
The gun was produced for the use of military personnel, mercenaries, and anyone who decides to purchase it from Cerberus Enterprise. While a slugthrower can be easily used by most military as any blaster, Flechette rounds are much larger, and thus require more training to use than your average military. There is significant round drop, and wind resistance plays a large part in firing this weapon.

Using a very simple frame is best for the weapon. Not having so many extras done on it reduce the weight, and the cost of making such a weapon. With the addition of a thermal, and compass location device on the left or right side, It allows for people to stay aware of their surroundings, even if they are scoped in, or paying attention elsewhere.

With this in mind, Atheus has them altered via the force to produce a limited form of Force Reflex upon those using the weapon. Giving them a much better sense of spacial, and situation awareness. Most who will purchace the weapon will be top of the line troops, People specified of buying weapons from Cerberus, and those who Atheus is directly coordinating with.
