Light Weapons

Although these weapons are similar to the standard issue las weapons of the Astra Militarum, the basic rifles, pistols and cannons of Stryxis design fire a continuous beam of energy and are extremely accurate. These weapons, however, burn through their charge quickly.

They have multiple design templates, each of which is crafted by a TechSight Master to fire in different spectra. Every different design is capable of firing a focused energy beam that acts in accordance to its specific spectral output function.

Each of these spectral outputs possesses its own peculiar capabilities. Many xenographers have come to refer to these weapons as "light-rifles" or "light-pistols."

These are employed by the majority of the rabble who fight for the Stryxis in their infrequent engagements. Although slightly weaker than Imperial las weapons, some Stryxis weapons have the ability to fire a constant and focused beam at a target over a long period of time. These are sometimes referred to as "lightburner" weapons by those Humans who have had the misfortune of being on the receiving end of their fire.

Reports of these weapons' functions come from illegally procured Thulean records and are considered inaccurate at best. Many other weapon templates are rumoured to exist.

These weapons are highly sought after by agents of the Ordo Xenos and also by dangerously curious xenographers. Should a brave Imperial explorer or trader get their hands on one, the rewards would be substantial.
