Lorath Solid Munitions

The following listing depicts the potential loads which can be fired from Lorath solid chemical propelled firearms, and magnetic acceleration weapons, this includes individual and crew served weapons

The following are descriptions and details stating the use, function, and intent of several types of Lorath ammunition varieties.

Due to the robust armor found on many enemy warships, antimatter has been selected as a primary means of neutralizing enemy starships and mecha. Along with being able to neutralize targets clad in exotic armor types, antimatter also provides a means of delivering fall-out-free nuclear-like effects on a planetary target location. Due to the wide spread damage in planetary use due to the explosive reaction with atmosphere, it is recommended that antimatter munitions be used sparingly in atmosphere. Plasma Ordinance

When in a planetary deployment, or close range space deployment, plasma ordinance would be an ideal means of delivering damage. Despite not being able to deliver as much damage as antimatter, plasma is still able to deal damage to exotic armor targets. Plasma can also be used to ignite targets such as cities or forests. Due to the wide-range of plasma-explosions, it is suggested that plasma ordinance not be used within range of friendly installations or within friendly stations or spacecraft.

Nuclear ordinance is an older form of weapon, yet it retains it's use due to it's wide spread destruction and lasting damage to a given area. Unfortunately, due to the unfocused release of thermal energy, nuclear weapons are ineffective against starship targets, yet pose a major threat against installations, and enemy held terrain. It is suggested that nuclear weapons be used only as a 'scorched earth' tactic when reclaiming enemy held worlds. Nuclear weapons are not suggested to be used within the atmosphere of friendly held planets.

Ideal for a long-lasting impact against an enemy populace, nanomachine ordinance is intended to destroy select species of farmland, livestock, and humanoid life. Fortunately nanomachines are capable of being pre-programmed to be selective of their targets. The secondary use of nanomachine ordinance is that it can be used to heal, when properly configured, nanomachine ordinance can be used to revitalize soil, cure disease, and even clean entire atmospheres… thus nanomachine ordinance provides a wide range of potential applications.

Due to the current advancements in armor and shield technology, conventional slugs have taken a back-seat to the advancements of energy based weaponry. Despite being outdated, conventional slugs still serve a use in damaging installations, neutralization of unarmored enemies, or neutralizing small-scale targets such as power armor.

Name: High Yield Compressed Antimatter Containment Shell
Charge: 10 lbs of compressed antimatter.
Damage: Initial penetration damage until slug deforms, soon followed by matter/antimatter reaction which results in energy and radiation release. When used in atmosphere, heat results in nuclear explosion-like blast effects.
