Approved Tech Jorus Merrill's Shotgun Shells

Additional Shotgun Shells

Piezoelectric EMP shell

Intent: Personal use. Controlling the battlefield. Finding creative solutions.
Manufacturer: Silk Holdings
Model: None
Affiliation: Jorus Merrill, various
Modularity: No
Production: Minor
Material: 8-gauge shotgun shell
Description: The piezoelectric shell converts kinetic energy into electric current, and from current into an electromagnetic pulse. Naturally, it is only suited to being fired from a low-tech weapon. Highly piezoelectric polymer strands transform a respectable portion of the shell's velocity into current.

A single-pulse, miniaturized inertial dampener delays and prevents the shell from detonating immediately upon fire. Instead, it detonates in a bright but harmless flare roughly ten metres from the muzzle. If the shell strikes a hard object before ten metres, it is not likely to detonate, as it is not an explosive but a set of electronics and specific wiring, specifically a cone of tightly wound wire. The electromagnetic pulse kills any electronics within five metres and impairs any within ten. An especially close detonation will fry even highly shielded electronics.

Obviously, the shell is very, very expensive.

Classification: Shotgun/scattergun ammunition, nonlethal
Range: 10 metres


Cortosis shell


Intent: Personal use. Controlling the battlefield. Finding creative solutions. Area denial.
Manufacturer: Silk Holdings
Model: None
Affiliation: Jorus Merrill, various
Modularity: No
Production: Minor
Material: 8-gauge shotgun shell, cortosis ore
Description:

The shell is nothing more than a metal cylinder full of finely ground cortosis dust, courtesy of a cortosis purchase from Baktoid. When fired, the shell discharges a cloud of dust, fine enough to hang in the air for a good period of time, depending on air circulation. The cloud is generally around five metres across. Any lightsabre incorporating dimetris circuits into its activation loop (the vast, vast majority of lightsabres) will be deactivated for anywhere from several seconds to several minutes upon contact.

Classification: Shotgun/scattergun ammunition, nonlethal
Range: 10 metres

CryoBan shell

Intent: Personal use. Controlling the battlefield. Finding creative solutions.
Manufacturer: Silk Holdings
Model: None
Affiliation: Jorus Merrill, various
Modularity: No
Production: Minor
Material: 8-gauge shotgun shell
Description:
A miniaturized CryoBan grenade with a lethal detonation radius of 6 metres. Persons within 12 metres experience frostbite.
Classification: Shotgun/scattergun ammunition, lethal
Range: 50 metres
