SPECIAL FEATURES
  • Inbuilt Silencer: The SMW is designed for subtlety and efficiency, and as such has an inbuilt silencing mechanism, that cannot be removed unless through internal modification.
Strengths:
  • Silent Night: Thanks to the in-built silencer of the weapon, it makes next to no audible noise when firing, making it more difficult to tell where a shooter came from.
  • Hello, You're Dead: The SMW has incredible stopping power, letting it punch hard through many forms of armour and natural toughness.
  • Up Close and Personal: This rifle has excellent range, even amongst other weapons of its class, able to effectively fire at around 600m.
Weaknesses:
  • Cool Off: The SMW's power means it is very liable to heating, forcing a user to have to pull back a 'bolt' after each shot to initiate cooling on the weapon's insides for a few seconds before he 'bolts' it back into place.
  • Delicate Flower: Thanks to being an advanced weapon with complex internal components, the SMW requires more maintenance and is generally harder to repair and maintain than your average weapon even without that.
  • Subtle: The SMW is a long weapon, and cannot be folded away like an X-45 or other forms of sniper rifle. It is a very obvious weapon, damaging its potential sale in more illicit markets.
DESCRIPTION

Designed not long after Varik Ice was coronated as Sovereign, the SMW is designed as a proper sniper's weapon for the Sovereign Army to properly prepare them for long-range encounters and possible assassination missions. The weapon's cooling system was the brainchild of one Barabian Systems engineer after the design confounded most of the researchers, since demands were made not to lower the stopping power that the rifle had whatsoever.

The weapon has received more of a niche reputation and is appreciated by those with a love for blasters and weapons thanks to its intricate details and high performance, though it is already considered a highly restricted weapon in most sectors thanks to its high lethality and general purpose as a Sniper Rifle.
