TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

• Classification: Plasma-thrower

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Can utilize an alternate fire mode (consumes the entire canister in 1 shot; see description)

Strengths:

• Sticky Shots - Each scatter shot sticks upon impact and then ignites. This effect is greatly pronounced with the alternate fire.
• Blobulon - Alternate fire acts as a sticky incendiary grenade, exploding upon contact and igniting the immediate vicinity with sticky flame.

Weaknesses:

• Outta Range - With a very low effective range and firing very slow shots, this gun is not meant for hectic combat.
• Small Mag - Only having 6 shots (1, using alternate fire), this gun requires frequent reloading.

DESCRIPTION
The JSA-PLASSHOT6 is a new type of plasma weaponry, using standard plasma energy in a new way - instead of simply exploding on contact, the plasma instead ignites, burning like napalm as it sticks to its targets. In alternate fire, the entire magazine is expended in a single slug-like shape, exploding upon contact like a sticky incendiary grenade, coating the vicinity in napalm-like fire.

Alternate fire is activated by the thumb trigger and can easily switch back and forth. The magazine (a plasma canister) is ejected by pumping the shotgun once; the weapon is primed again upon inserting a fresh canister.

The efficiency of alternate fire is drastically reduced on a magazine that is less than full; it requires a full canister for maximum effect.

Sticky Shots - Each scatter shot sticks to the target, igniting upon impact. This effect is greatly pronounced with the alternate fire.

Please change the wording here to be a bit less absolute. Has the potential to stick to the target versus sticks to the target.
