Ion carbine
The ion carbine was a rifle-like weapon designed primarily to disable droids. As with other ion weapons, it fired ion energy which disrupted electrical systems, but was not very effective against organic targets. It was similar to an ion rifle, however it had the advantage of shooting in...

STRENGTHS
- High 'Stopping' Power: Against Droids and Armor that has electronic systems this gun is absolutely lethal, a high stopping power and rate of fire ensures that most droids are cut down in a minimal amount of time.
WEAKNESSES
- Nonlethal: The Ion Carbine is only dangerous against Droids whom it can render nonoperational in short order. Against organic, living targets the best the Ion Carbine is capable of doing is shorting out any high tech, etc that someone may have on their person be that Armor, Weaponry and so forth.
- Recoil: The Ion Carbine fires fast and has a lot of recoil which can make recoil difficult. This is largely mitigated by the 3-Round Burst option that the Carbine sports. Using the 3-Round Burst recoil becomes negligible however the rate of fire also decreases significantly.
DESCRIPTION
The Ion Carbine is a tool best used against Droids and Heavily Armored opponents. On the battlefield it has negligible use against vehicles and organic soldiers but is absolutely devastating against any form of Droid or 'High Tech' opposition. Whereas an EMP Grenade might short out robotics in a small radius the Ion Carbine is capable of choosing specific targets and firing on them in a concentrated effort.
Like most Carbines this weapon has a fast rate of fire however it has been outfitted with a fire modulator so that operators can choose between Full Auto and 3-Round Burst rates of fire when engaging opponents. The Carbine can also be fitted with a 'Scope' to increase range at the cost of increasing the weight of the weapon as well as a Laser Sight which will increase accuracy at regular engagement range but also increase the visibility of the operator when switched on.
The Carbine uses a High Output Ion Cell to power itself accounting for its stopping power. Most Droids are shredded by sustained fire from the Carbine. High Tech suffers accordingly depending on its resistances.
