Ahh yes, the shotgun. This weapon has endured since the 18th century and is still in widespread use in the late 21st century, long after the worldwide collapse.

The durability and strength of this boomstick makes the weapon ideal for close quarters engagements and inflicts severe damage on lightly armored targets.

Shotguns are favored among resistance cells and small-time crime rings hidden in the ruined cities throughout the Earth.

Sometimes making your opponents eat lead is not quite personal enough. These situations call for the Flamethrower.

Igniting highly pressurized nitrogen and petroleum, the Flamethrower heats everything on impact to 2,192 degrees fahrenheight. This massive heat instantly disintegrates most targets or causes damage over time.

With the difficulty of securing fossil fuels, this is not a practical weapon in the modern world. As a result, this weapon is made by few manufacturers and usually for display purposes.

How much do YOU think this advanced killing system is worth?

Wait just one minute before you answer!
Watch as Rocket Launcher disintegrates this protestor in 1, 2, 3!

Listen to what else you get at no extra charge! Multi-vector assault mode, spectral targeting system, hyper-velocity kinetic penetrator projectiles, a remote controller, and a clock! Can you believe it!?

That’s right, all these features and guaranteed complete destruction, all for just how much?

5,000 credits? 10,000 credits? Even more? NO! It’s just 1.000 credits! That's right, 1,000 credits, an incredible value, but true!

The standard issue firearm to all Alliance soldiers, the Plasma Rifle replaced traditional gas blowback machine gun systems for an entirely new approach.

Using small fusion generators inside magnetically sealed cells, the firing mechanism of the rifle produces a limited self-sustaining plasma charge with an estimated range of 1,300 meters.

Upon impact on a human body, the plasma shot causes severe burns on the surface of the skin. The static charge then dissolves inside of the body and destroys nerve endings inside the central nervous system, causing instant death.

The wave generator is part of a new line of advanced weaponry created by Alliance military research.

This weapon fires a polaron distortion that increases in size exponentially until it dissipates, which has a reaction of rendering any matter caught within range to destabilize and break down to its basic component parts. The vibrating effect seen in open air resembles a wave-like pattern.

Any life form caught within the wave will turn into pile of crystallized carbon. One soldier describes this as "turning someone into a pile of salt".

Distribution of these weapons are tightly guarded and strictly enforced. The only way you will get a hold of one of these weapons is to break into a research lab or pry it off the dead hands of an elite Alliance soldier.

Another recent breakthrough in Alliance technology, the Black hole Cannon fires a sphere of concentrated photons and gravitons that quickly collapse in on themselves and generate an artificial singularity.

Any object within an undefined radius around the singularity will be pulled into non-existence. This mechanic has not been perfected, which results in varying sizes of singularities being formed.

This weapon, while incredibly devastating, is also equally as dangerous. It is suggested that the user quickly retreat after launching a shot from this weapon.

The most powerful and consistent hand-held weapon ever devised by man, the Zeus Rod harnesses the physics of the electromagnetic properties of lightning, magnifying the effect by a factor of 10.

Every shot is a precise hit, with the added bonus of duplicating the effect to any object nearby with a sufficiently high static discharge, which acts as a magnet to chain the discharge to multiple targets.

Entire regiments of resistance fighters have been wiped out by a few Alliance soldiers with Zeus Rod weapons.
