- Mobility - When compared to the bulky mass and cumbersome dimensions of other anti-materiel sniper platforms, the Phase XI is extremely lightweight and highly mobile. Unlike many other types of anti-materiel rifles, the Phase XI can be easily relocated in the event of a tactical retreat, while other weapons of the same class would likely need to be abandoned or destroyed. In addition, the rifle’s diminutive frame allows unaugmented soldiers of slight build and insignificant strength to comfortably operate it.
- Energy Recovery - Possessing a state-of-the-art regenerative recoil system, the Phase XI can convert some of the kinetic energy that would otherwise be wasted to recoil into additional charge in the weapon’s power cells. Although the system is not completely efficient, it is somewhat effective in reducing the recoil of the weapon to slightly tolerable levels and generating a small amount of energy which may then be stored in the power cell.
- Extreme Damage Potential - As an anti-materiel rifle, the Phase XI is best utilized as a powerful counter to heavy power-armored infantry and light vehicles. However, the weapon is only effective against lightly-armored vehicles when utilized in precise application to target weak points. The Phase XI’s dense phrik slug is also potentially capable of punching through exotic armor materials such as beskar, impervium, and phrik, but only when layered with less than ~40 mm of thickness of which is typically found in power armor. Beyond that, the slug is generally ineffective against these materials, especially if they are utilized in vehicle armor.
- Abysmal Rate of Fire - In the hands of a skilled operator, the Phase XI can fire at most 12 RPM under ideal circumstances.
- Particle Shields - Infantry and vehicle-grade particle shield technologies are the most effective counter against the Phase XI, especially since the rifle lacks the rate of fire necessary to gradually wear shields down through sustained fire, even in the extremely unlikely event that a shielded target is not moving while standing in the open. In addition, many particle shielding technologies are able to recharge power faster than the rifle can deliver equivalent diminishing firepower.
- Ionite and EMP - Directed Ion and EMP assaults are likely to render many of the Phase XI’s advanced subsystems, underbarrel attachments, and optics nonfunctional. The energy recovery and recoil dampening system is especially vulnerable to this, under which case the rifle’s recoil will become almost completely unmanageable to unaugmented Human or Near-Human operators.
The Phase XI Anti-Materiel Sniper System is a precision platform designed to facilitate the engagement of power armor and light vehicles at long distances. The weapon is manufactured by the Agents of Chaos, intended to create largely, and is intended to fill a special niche by delivering the stopping power of a conventional anti-materiel rifle while retaining a small form factor. In effect, this allows the weapon to be used effectively by virtually any soldier, so long as they have the necessary skill set for long-range marksmanship.
