STRENGTHS

• Versatile weapon: Designed to be capable of fitting practically any situation that requires or needs a blaster rifle, the HLR-330 (A&B) are to be considered capable of success in a multitude of scenarios thanks to their large range of firing options, two different scoping and optical options.
• Capable of automation: Depending on the scope and tactical electrical loadout, this weapon is capable of being used remotely and this at a very high efficiency, allowing this weapon to be capable of ambushes and stealth actions.
• Tough weapon: This weapon has such a quality build that even if it were empty and the user would not have any powercells to recharge this beasty, it is built so sturdy that it can effectively be used as a bludgeoning melee weapon. It has considerable resistances to heat and energy as is part of its build.

WEAKNESSES

• Rather Heavy: This weapon is sturdy and has quality, yes...but at the cost of being rather heavy and somewhat bulky as well, meaning that it isn't something for the untrained soldier or civilian to use.
• Electrical: Having cybernetic and electrical loadouts means it will have weaknesses that target the electronics specifically, such as EMP.

DESCRIPTION
The HLR-330 was a design which had been floating around for a while, as part of the renewal process initiated by Karl Von Strauss within the N&Z EnSol division's portfolio of weaponry and more specifically handhelds. This blaster rifle design had been looked at once again when it became clear that in an ever changing market where modularity has become key, the company would need a solid and useful limited production piece which could be used as a blueprint for more affordable later versions or even more exclusive versions in smaller numbers.

As such the HLR-330 was envisioned to be using the best possible materials from not just the N&Z, but also associated companies such as the HPI consortium and First Astral Engineering in order to truly bring forth an exemplary and exquisite piece of kit for a limited range of people, with in particular the Valkan Guards from House Nargath and certain divisions within the Empire of the Lost as possible market targets.

This design ended up becoming exactly what it had to become, granting excellent optical choices and versatility, a wide range of firing modi which would make this a weapon that could have use in practically any possible situation.
