[Lucrezia]

Intent: To create a weapon for those chosen in the Horde by the Ishimura
Development Thread: N/A
Manufacturer: Xana Exotic Arms
Model: Bug Launcher
Affiliation: Horde
Modularity: Yes

• Thud
• Razor
• Snap
• Blast

Production: Minor
Material:

• Sparkbee
• Yorik-kul
• Biot

Description: Created to be a special weapon for the trusted and skilled within the horde. The sparkbee biot launcher isn't that impressive. The semi automatic firing of the bee's shaped biots propels them in their various types at a speed similar to a slug thrower. The bladder sacks they are kept in is loaded on the front under the barrel piece made from coral with the small sacks being used to separate the different bee's. The biots in the coral that are designs can create a seal over the different bladders of bugs with is saliva to seal in the freshness and the biots. The rifle can then select which bladder to open and use for firing depending from how the user treaks its nodules on the side.

Small pockets are in the bladders allowing air and the bee's to breathe are cut into the side so they will not die. The firing mechanism uses a couple vong biots to coax a gag reflex from the creature creating a noxious propellent that interacts with sparkbee honey creating the firing mechanism that launches the bugs with a small glup of honey and vomit. In the rare case some of the creatures survive usually if they miss and don't impact with an object able to smash their exoskeleton killing the creature. The honey can minorly weaken and eat away at their bodies as well, making it so that most will not survive long outside of the rifle or bladders.

Classification: Bio-organic Rifle
Size: Two handed
Status: Limited (Vong and Shaped Vong)
Length: .72m
Weight: 8kg
Ammunition Type: Shaped sparkbee's
Ammunition Capacity: 40 bees per bladder

• Thud: One of the primary creatures fired and operating on a similar scope to a thud bug launcher but its homing isn't as impressive. The ability to fly back to its master doesn't happen as the velocity can smash it when it thuds against something.
• (High impact damage against unarmored targets, light armor, minor against medium and ineffective against heavy)
• [when striking a target heavy blunt force damage is done similar to being punched]
• {effective up to twenty meters}

• Razor: Shaped from the spark bee and kept in a bladder sack with nine others it is used for going after lightly armored targets and unarmored ones. The homing isn't as useful from the speeds it is being fired out of the rifle at but the exitation of propellent and honey can be just as dangerous when used against vong armor.
• (Effective against light armor 3 and below, very effective against unarmored enemies)
• [When hitting a target digs in and causes piecing damage slicing into the skin to draw blood]
• {effective up to fifteen meters}

• Snap: A semi flash bang and able to explode in a bright blast of light and sound. The premature detonation of it when it comes out is a common problem and one has to be careful.
• (not effective against armor, blind targets, deaf targets, polarized lenses)
• [When striking a target causes an inhalation of noxious fumes that can cause hacking coughs, tears and possibly burn the lung and nasal passages]
• {effective up to five meters}

• Blast: Shaped to be a homing missile almost and for plain destruction of some armored target
• (Effective against medium armor 6 and below with some minor damage to heavy)
• [Heavy damage on impact with a target wearing armor, moderate damage against one wearing armor, splash damage]
• {effective up to twenty meter}

• Glups of honey: Acting as a seal for the bladders a small amount usually fires with the bugs and can be very flamable against vong crab armor.
• (effective against vong armor 10 and below)
• {effective up to ten meters}

Effective Range: 20m

it has been approved for use but in case anyone has ideas to improve it or possibly mass produce please input

 

[Kiyala Demont`]

How about a separate development thread where we make a space station for agricultural thus we can have a major environent dedicated to growing these bugs thus making possibilities of mass producing. . .

 

[Lucrezia]

An entire station dedicated to raising the sparkbee's to shape would be a powerful thing. Also a very large source of income since sparkbee honey is a delicacy. Do you have any ideas @[member="Kiyala Demont"] on a good size?

Um if you have skype add me @Kalikushin & we can talk quicker and in detail . . .
