- Repulsar Assisted: This weapon can be thrown or launched over very long distances due to its ability to glide over small microrepulsars.
- Resilient Frame: With an Ultrachrome B plated outer shell, its difficult to break with physical blows or blaster pistol rounds.
- Slight: Large enough to fit in the palm of your hand.
- Tactical: Only effects magnetic and metal materials, ignoring most bio-organics.
STRENGTHS
- Weight Amplification: This grenade uses the fundamental laws of physics to create and amplify a magnetic field within a stable radius dictated by the grenades field emitter. This field pulls on substances proportionately to the magnetic field they themselves create. Meaning that the more mass of magnetic or metallic material that is within the range of the sphere, the harder it is pulled. Effectively, this grenade multiplies a substances effective weight by itself, so long as its magnetic, or metal. This force is capable of grinding a tank to a halt, toppling a mechanical walker or pinning heavily armoured troopers or droids. Enough so that most substances of a Large or heavy classification or higher, would be immobilized at least. Average/Average weight objects become encumbered while Small or Light substances are little more than inconvenienced.
- Crushing Force: The more mass the substance, the more pressure is put on it, this can cause cataclysmic effects to the victim of the field if certain conditions are met. The force of the grenade against complex structures which are both Large and heavy can begin to warp or even crush them, snapping rivets and tearing separate panels apart unless its of high quality. This effect only amplifies as substances get larger and heavier, though materials of exceedingly high quality are likely to not be caved in.
- Omnipresent Devastation: As the grenade works on the level of a force, rather than a wave or an energy. It pulls from structures internally, allowing them to reach internal hardware or softer targets to warp and damage, rather than needing to force through heavy armour or shields from the outside.
- Long Distance: The system is outfitted with a repulsarlift band around its outside which allows it to hover, keeping its height when thrown to projected over much longer distances.
WEAKNESSES
- Plastics: Sadly when it comes to duraplast and other polymer bases armours and weapons this grenade has zero effect on.
- Sonic Weapons: A good blast from a sonic weapon bypasses this grenades' armour, and is able to easily destroy the delicate internal machinery.
- Zero Damage: This grenade, for a grenade deals no significant damage to organic creatures at all, relying entirely on other influences and environmental hazards to accomplish much of this effect. Making this weapon almost entirely useless on certain combatants.
