WEAPON FEATURES
Different weapons neutralize different threats. This list is a heads-up on the features used in the weapon tables.
BONUS indicates any modification you get to your CLOSE COMBAT or RANGED COMBAT roll when using the weapon.
DAMAGE is the base Damage rating, i.e. how many points of damage your target suffers if your attack is successful. If you roll extra , you can deal additional damage. The word “Blast” followed by a number means that the weapon inflicts no direct damage, but instead triggers an explosion with the Blast Power indicated.
RANGE is the maximum range category at which the weapon can be effectively used.
WEIGHT indicates how many typical items the weapon counts as in the inventory list (see the Encumbrance section). If no weight is indicated, the weapon is too heavy to be carried.
COST is the weapon’s typical price in United American (UA) dollars. The actual price varies depending on the supply and demand at the location.
SPECIAL is any special effects that this weapon has. “Armor Piercing” means that any Armor Rating counts as half against this weapon, rounding fractions up. “Armor Doubled” means that any Armor Rating is doubled against the weapon.
