WRECKING BALL

Your standard construction device, used as a quik fix to replace missing arm. Some pilots like them so much after using them that they have combat grade ones custom designed

MECH SPEAR

These come in a wide variety. The simplest version is a telephone pole fitted with an armor piercing auto-cannon shell and a primitive detonation device. Only usable by mechs with hands, most commonly given to light mechs in urban combat

MECH GRENADE

Very similar to Spear but fitted with a 155 MM artillery shell. Anti-personnel weapon. As these are much safer to use, far more common than the spear

ZUES' LIGHTNING(.75 Sniper Rifle)

Replaces main gun on light mechs with very long rage telescopic sites and semi automatic anti-personel sniper rifle, also capable of damaging lightly armored vehicles at short range.

GRAPHITTI GUN

Specially fitted flamer, that contains ablative paint. Used offensively to blind sensors and cockpit, used defensively to coat damaged mechs, only for the truly desperate.

EMP GUANTLET

Battle glove that delivers both a short range electromagnetic burst but also capable of electrical discharge to damage enemy mechs computers, internal circuitry and the pilot himself. Adds minimal weight to carrying mech.

MISSILE KNUCKLEDUSTER

Mech sized gauntlet with three Short Range Missile 2s fitted to it, capable of punching or very inaccurate short ranged attack, destroys carrying mech's hand. Also called the 'Socko' Works better than it sounds.

Rare mark

Hall of Honour

for 7 Unusual and Improvisied Battle Mech Weapons

The Hall of Honour is your mark on a submission you believe is frick’n awesome — so good you would jump in front of a dragon’s breath to protect the scroll it is written on.

Bestowing HoH also highlights it on the front of the Citadel for about a day, so others see the recognition it earned.

You may bestow HoH on the same submission up to your level (with a short wait between strikes). Five distinct HoH voters raise a work to Golden.

  1. Scrasamax

    I get a good Solaris VII vibe off of this. Short, but useful.

    Useful for mechs whose normal weaponry is damaged or out of ammo.
