Strengths:
- My Little Friend -
- With the capacity to lay down massive amounts of verpine shatter ammunition, each weapon is created to be a force multiplier capable of pinning down entire squads. Lightly armored vehicles to more traditional armored personnel are all subject to its powerful ability; though its accuracy leaves something to want without the computer supported guidance.
- Potent Payload -
- Because of a specialized ammunition produced by Jaeger Solutions and associates, the Hellfire is capable of firing not only kinetically damaging rounds, but rounds that hold a number of sick deliveries intended to murder or stun. From nerve gas to flashbang rounds, the tactical modularity of even its offensive capabilities make this an excellent choice for mainline troops and special forces alike.
Weaknesses:
- Cumbersome -
- Due to its entire platform being dedicated to massive firepower and otherwise potent destruction, there was little room to be allowed in terms of support. Each weighs a massive amount, coupled with the weight of specialized ammunition and various computer systems forces the user to only exert it under short bursts or otherwise limited moments.
- Krakatoa -
- The heat that builds forces a dallorian barrel to be used at all times; but this does not stop the weapon from having short term firing abilities. Full Auto will cause the barrel to melt, and whatever round inside the chamber to explode out the side in short order. While multiple bursts are capable, without the gatling attachment there is very little one could do to lay out continuous firepower without risking their own well being.
- Need A Break -
- As the ammunition is used on such a device, more effort was put into the magazine itself rather than the reloading procedure. Many units with these in their repertoire will tell you straight out that running out of rounds can be a death sentence. To reload one, there is anywhere from 30 second to a full minute before the process is complete and its ready to fire once more. This can be a game changer in the realm of combat, and forces the weapon to be restricted to support roles rather than operations including finesse.
DESCRIPTION
In the same fashion as always, Jaeger Solutions creates another weapon to fill a role they have yet to touch. The battlefields ‘Machine Gun’; a weapon capable of laying down offensive waves meant to hinder enemy forces and allow more maneuverability on the opposing side. Capable of hundreds of rounds per minute, each Hellfire is just what the doctor ordered for the morgue to stay in business, and there is no exception in its prowess.
In most traditional senses, the Hellfire utilizes the tried and true platform of the Verpine Shatter Gun; yet was expanded upon in the same fashion as the previous ‘Vora’ Hand Cannon offered by the company. With variable ammunition, a tracking system to boot, and a strong reliance on bringing an otherwise archaic design into the modern era. Yet another design meant to amplify any army who relies on Jaeger for its stopping power.
In usual fashion, the Total War persona Jaeger carries continues with another destructive entity capable of massive damage; either mounted on a vehicle or otherwise, to end all wars. To be the best at war defines the company, and Jaeger loves definition.
