Codex Techoren: Heavy Weapons

"Do we know how it works?"
"Well Sir we're not entirely sure-"
"Does it work?"
"Yes Sir"
"Lock and load boys!"
- General Hannibal and Professor Zien, The development of the Distortion Beam Cannon.

Trition Annihilator: The Annihilator is a medium weight multi barreled Minigun constructed out of Mythural steel and powered by a heavy duty energy flux battery. It was designed by the Trition Corporation as a portable heavy duty anti infantry weapon and sees frequent use in various military units. When fired the multiple barrels of this weapon rapidly spin and it crackles with energy for several seconds before finally unleashing a destructive swarm of hundreds of dark yellow raw energy spheres. The Annihilator suffers nearly no recoil, light body armor is totally ineffective and medium armor compromised, that coupled with a long lasting clip makes the Annihilator one of the more dangerous weapons in the Marine Corps arsenal.

Scorpion Defiler: This weapon is a large heavy weight Minigun constructed out of Highcryiem and reinforced with Mythural steel, resulting in a weapon too heavy to be used by common infantry. As such they are often mounted on units such as Jeeps, Battle Mecha, or Bunker embankments, they are also employed by power armor squads. The Defiler utilizes rail gun technology, although to a much weaker extent than the Reaper, with multiple magnets running the lengths of its many barrels and an electro magnetic field generator at the base of the gun. Possessing a very high rate of fire, and nearly no recoil, the Defiler is belt feed medium caliber rounds of armor piercing ammo, and all forms of armor are severely compromised against it. The Defilers main use is against armored enemy infantry and lightly armored vehicles, due to its nature its considered one of the most dangerous weapons in the Corp.

Ionic Energion Cannon: This large, broad, cylinder shaped cannon was designed by the Techoren military as a deep impact weapon. When large amounts of medium caliber bullets are ineffective the IEC delivers a single devastating burst of potent raw energy, originally designed for use against large resilient alien monsters it has also been frequently used as a means to eliminate enemy armored vehicles and infantry. The IEC runs on an advanced power cartridge and is capable of two modes of fire, burst and stream. The first fires a potent bolt of raw power that upon impact explodes outwards to fill a small area, the second unleashes a steady stream of destructive energy and can be used to either cut a swath of destruction through unarmored troops or bore a hole through a more sturdy armored target. This weapon is commonly employed by power armor squads.

Distortion Beam Cannon: Considered one of the most devastating weapons in all of the Techoren Federation, The Distortion Beam Cannon, or DBC, was developed by Nucleus Linx, a company in the employ of the High Government. Originally charged with developing the next generation in nuclear weapons they stumbled upon the DBC by pure chance, they discovered by mixing a complex array of phasic energy beams into a single particle ray they were held to cause the atomic structure of a target to become excited, the atoms would quickly break their bonds with each other and rapidly spin about, which gives the weapon its distortion effect and ultimately reduces a target to little more than dust. The Distortion Cannon is constructed out of Mythural and reinforced with Plasteel and ends with three prongs at the front of the barrel, when fired it lets out a steady particle stream and it requires a continues surge to ultimately decimate a target. Given a continuous stream or many short surges an individual could easily penetrate the thick armor of a tank. This weapon is not regularly used.

Magtonic Grenade Launcher: This lightweight large weapon is constructed out of polyplastics and has a wide broad barrel and a removable casing on the top of the launcher where a row of 10 grenades can be preloaded. The Oozo Corporation originally designed the Magtonic as a heavy support weapon for law enforcement but it has also found frequent use on the battlefields of the Techoren. Ultimately the Magtonic is capable of firing any type of grenade giving it vast versatility, however it’s most commonly used with high yield grenades pressure sensitive to impact. When fired the Magtonic uses a magnetic field generator to launch the grenade out of the barrel and to some distant location.

MPU Launcher: The Multi Purpose Utility Launcher or MPU for short is yet another weapon designed by the military itself. The MPU was built as a means to allow ground based infantry the ability to launch anti air, anti tank or anti infantry rockets with a single easily customizable device, as opposed to the many situational launchers previously used. The MPU is a cylinder shaped device with an extendable back and fold out targeting system; it possesses its own radar, motion sensors, graviton sensors and light distortion (anti stealth) sensors. Although slow firing, due to the need to individually load each shot, its capability of firing whatever type of rocket a situation demands has made it a standard weapon within Marine Companies.

APG Launcher: The APG or Advanced Personal Guided Launcher was designed by the Ninite Corporation as an advanced tactile strike weapon. Most commonly used by specialist military strike teams as a means to hit difficult targets or eliminate enemy units with minimal risk, it also sees infrequent use in law enforcement and holds popularity on the black market. The APG itself appears as a large cylinder shaped launcher designed to fire a large rocket, it also comes with a briefcase built laptop computer that plugs into the launcher itself. The weapon has its own radar and can use a sonar based sensor system to build a 3d map of its immediate surroundings, furthermore with the right access codes one can hock up with a local satellite or Starship to gain a more complete map of the areas layout. This information is then used to preprogram the rockets flight path allowing it to literally turn corners on its way to the designated target. The rocket also has a second fire mode where the user can remote control guide it, although this is much more difficult. Naturally the rockets fired from the APG are specifically designed for it and it cannot simply fire any conventional type.

Nucleus Redeemer: This time the Nucleus Linx Corporation succeeded in their goal to develop an advanced nuclear weapon. The Redeemer as they named it is a very large rocket fired from a specially built launcher, its purpose is as anti tank weapon although it works just as effectively against reinforced bunkers and infantry. The weapon possessed heat, motion and graviton sensors and can be pre-locked onto a target before firing. Upon impact the rocket explodes causing a controlled fission reaction; although the blast only fills a 10' diameter it causes the atomic structure of substances in the area to disintegrate. A highly destructive weapon it has been discovered some substances are resistant to this effect, however most aren’t.
