Description: The development of the OHBR-1 was due in part for the need of a single weapon that could me mounted in fortifactions, vehicles and even aircraft. It actually is highly based off of the E-Web heavy blaster repeater, but taking the design and tweaking it a bit more. First thing first, the clunk cooling unit that usually had to be carried around with the E-Web was replaced, this was done by making the OHBR-1 with highly heat resistant materials, a alusteel-tungsten alloy, this allows to the weapon to be more mobile, being able to be moved by only two people instead of the usual three of four it would take. Along with this, it still has the same power as the E-Web and higher range. A heat sink at the beginning of the barrel also helps with dissapating heat.

Strengths:
  • High Stopping Power
  • Long Range

Weaknesses:
  • Heavy
  • Can't be fired hand-held

Better heat resistant materials help out a lot, but that doesn't remove the problem. All it does it place the threshold higher. Is there anything on the weapon that compensates for heat?
