Tampson Consolidated is proud to announce its high-value contract to build the HIMAR-1 Heavy Imperial Multipurpose Assault Rifle for its clients in the Empire of the Lost. The HIMAR-1 is an integrated squad blaster and grenade launcher for use by troops in powered armor, on pintle mounts on a vehicle, or via tripod mount by ordinary infantry. The weapon can be fired as quickly as a trooper can pull the trigger, and is among the highest power man-portable weapon systems available to troops. Integrated low-light vid-sensors with zoom functions can interface with targeting systems in vehicles, helmet HUDs, or powered armor to grant excellent accuracy and battlefield awareness. In cases where an external power and gas supply is available, the weapon's blaster can operate continuously without requiring a reload. The HIMAR-1 is a weapon that the Empire can be proud to wield against their foes!
