- Aurelian Apostels - The special ammo is responsible for the high damage output. Due to its high speed but short short fuse it is rather intelligent ammunition, after impact, which can be a soft or solid target, the blaster bolt ignites itself in a high-explosive manner. Therefore it would tear apart an enemy from the inside with or without armour. If the armour should be strong and thick enough, the blaster bolt will still deliver a minor explosion with kinetic energy and tear out a portion of the enemy armour.
- Sturdy - The weapon is extremely sturdily built.
- Gun handling - The gun itself is not build to be carried by ordinary humans or humanoids, only beings with large and strong physics are capable of properly wielding the weapon. One could describe it as crude, even though it is on a high technological standard.
Originating in the tech which powered the DC-15LE and made it such a deadly and versatile weapon, the forges and engineers of the Rim-Guard Order were tasked with developing a new kind of weapon with much more intelligent ammunition. Under the guidance of Aurelian Sigismund, the Lancer Blaster was created.
Now going into its second generation, the Lancers are more deadly and more robust than ever. Providing a serious weapon of choice for heavy infantry and shock troops equally, with the potential to both destroy soft and hard targets equally.
The Heavy Lancer is the weapon for serious business. An incredible rate of fire while maintaining its incredible stopping power, make the weapon a bane for infantry formations and light vehicles. Deployed either with an assault grip or on a bi-pod, this weapon is a serious statement for suppression and annihilation.
