Baton w hidden dagger

Sword

Combiner Sword

Combiner Swords are weapons combining a gladius with a minigun mounted into its shaft. The weapon is used mainly for slashing, but the minigun can serve, although of such a small caliber to be considered a non-lethal weapon, as additional firepower over short ranges. The minigun is fired by a trigger in the weapon's handle. The weapon is used by Legionnaires of the Tucci Army.

XPLO Sword

The XPLO-Sword is a type of sword that is permanently enchanted with an explosive fire-class spell to add to the weapon's damage. It is the weapon of choice of Leutnant ShangDi of Germanistan.

Sword Of Soul Stealing

(German: Schwert des Seelenraubes)

An absolutely deadly melee combat weapon developed by ancient Sothfar. It is part of the standart armament of the Ragnarök-class ArmSuit. This sword is capable of removing the soul of a target with one hit. It case of targeting an ArmSuit, the ArmSoul of the Armsuit is removed, disabling the suit. The pilot remains unharmed if he doesn't come in contact with the matter of the sword.

Psionic Whip

Throwables

Zim

A type of large and heavy shuriken that can be thrown by ArmSuits. Some weird feature of its material makes it bounce of almost anything.

Firearms

Firearms are not really rare on Eden-IV, but they have not yet pushed aside the wide range of melee weapons, due to Eden-IV's lack of chemicals necessary to produce great amounts of propellants used in firearms with the exception of black powder. The Germanistan army employs a variety of firearms and heavy guns, aswell as do most smaller nations.

GP-13 SMG

SMG

A small-caliber smg issued to wardens of H-SS.

LuJP-2SA SMG

SMG

A small-caliber smg utilized by Jaeger Troops, Germanistan's military police.

SuPK-III

Semi-automatic rifle

A type of semi-automatic rifle used by the troops of Litovania. Litovania's limited industrial capacity led to production of a small number of rifles of the SuPK-II type by hand, while a greater amount of SuPK-IIIs was ordered from Checkistan. Though the weapon is of excellent quality, its low rate of fire and incapability to pierce even light armor make it useless when facing an opposing military force fielding modern equipment.

Praetorian Minigun

Minigun

A short-ranged small calibre Minigun mounted into the shaft of the combiner swords used by Legionnaires of the Tucci Army.

SA-GraT Grenade Launcher

A one-shot grenade launcher designed to be tapped onto the barrel of a StG-G3A Assault Rifle. The grenades fired have a diameter of 34mm to 40mm and can be fired over a distance of about 50 meters. This weapon is used by high-level Storm Troops to clear a path through heavy defenses. The high explosive warheads used in the grenades make good against enemy infantry, light vehicles and light structures, but are useless against concrete walls or heavy armor.

  • Fires: 34mm HE Grenades, 40mm HE Grenades
  • Magazine capacity: 1
  • Reload:

Blaster

Heavy Recoilless Rifle

The most basic ArmSuit weapon, the Blaster is standard equipment for most combat ArmSuits. It fires an explosive slug. It does not offer the high rate of fire of a machine gun, but the firepower alone, being meaningless against most units of the time it was conceived in, is enough to take down most units known and used today in a few careless shots.

  • Fires: Blaster Slug
  • Magazine Capacity: 8 shot
  • Reload: 12 sec.

RB Rampage

"Riot control assault rifle"

The RB Rampage is a pre-Psion War ArmSuit weapon and one of its kind. It fires rubber bullets that are not harmful to personell if fired at low velocity. However, the weapon's power can be increased, and at peak of the power output, the bullets are propelled powerful enough to demolish even armored vehicles. They then rebounce and the rebouncing shots can cause havoc among densely packed enemy troops.

  • Fires: Rubber Bullets
  • Magazine capacity: 500
  • Reload:

Missile Weapons

Doomsday

Troubleshooter

A type of missile with an highly developed AI. It homes in on any enemy target, avoiding obstacles, CIWS and other countermeasures on the way. However, it takes a few seconds to switch up to a target, in which it floats through the air helplessly. This weapon was developed before the Psion War as an ArmSuit weapon.

Pulse Weapons

Pulse Weapons are used in a wide variety on Eden-IV. These are melee weapons that use pulsed kinetic energy released upon impact to inflict heavy damage even on armored targets. The stored energy can also be fired at the enemy as a method of ranged attack, but close combat strikes are much more efficient. All Pulse Weapons have been produced before the end of Sothfar, and today, there is no technology left to replicate them.

Pulse Halberd

The Pulse Halberd is the weapon of Ruby Guard members. It is basically an halberd with a storage and emission device for KE pulses at the top of the shaft.

Pulse Scythe

This weapon is used by the Grey Guard. It is a scythe that releases a kinetic pulse in addition to slashin the target.

Pulse Hammer

The Pulse Hammer is a pulse weapon variant unused by the military forces of Eden-IV. One of these weapons is installed on the HEPHIAST ArmSuit.

Pulse Meteor Hammer

A Meteor Hammer is a heavy weight on a chain. In the case of the pulse meteor hammer, an heavy KE impulse is released upon impact. This weapon is wielded by Celine Ayfer Danay as weapon of choice.

Pulse Saber

The Pulse Saber is essentially a Pulse Scythe with a much shorter shaft and an additional horizontal handle. It allows for rapid slashes and strikes, unlike the long-shafter variants, and is considered one of the most effective pulse weapons against infantry. It can also fire kinetic pulses. It was widely used by mercenaries and as personal sidearm, but unused in the military due to its lack against armored targets. One of these weapons was wielded by Hector Raynheartz.

Laser Weapons

Chaos Laser

A laser weapon that is added to a Centurion's weapons gauntlet at a certain rank. A "spray nd pray" weapon, the weapon will scatter small laser beams all over the area.

Phalanx Laser Weapon

Laser Rifle Class I

Laser Rifle Class II

Laser Rifle Class III

Laser Rifle Class IV

Type 500 Defense Cannon Laser

Type 1200 Mammoth Laser

Demolition

Type 34 Demolition Charge

A type of demolition charge, of which one is carried by each soldier of the Cormerra Army to destroy enemy buildings and fortifications. The charge is placed at the side of the building and detonates after a timer runs out. It will only do damage to the building it is placed at, though troops and vehicles standing to close will be damaged by the detonation as well. One charge weighs about .5 kg.

Big Nuke

The "Big Nuke" is a tactical nuclear device used for demolition purposes at the hands of Armsuit pilots and serves this purpose with ultimate efficency. Although it can be thrown, it is usually placed directly at the target. Upon detonation, triggered by a timer, the weapon does massive damage in the immedeate vicinity, but additionally, it also spawns radioactive material over a wide area, therefore this weapon is also used as an area denial weapon.

Weapons of Mass Destruction

MaGenetic Bomb

Main article(s): MaGenetic Bomb

The MaGenetic Bomb was a radiation-based weapon of mass destruction used by Magera at the end of the Psion War. HOUSE has since managed to replicate miniture versions of this weapon, one of which was traded against Lydia with the FireSeeds and subsequently and mindlessly used to clear Romera City from Germanistan troops.

Other

Attractor

Developed as an ArmSuit weapon during the Psion War, this special device is used to attract enemy fire. It is a bouncy, bright object that appears to both enemy AIs and unexperienced humans as a valuable target, thus misguiding missiles and fire from ai-controlled or assisted combat units, while using em and gravitational radiation to attract laser beams and bullets respectively.

Aura

The Aura weapon is another weapon of the Ragnarök ArmSuit. It is as sort of shield device that projects the pilot's psychic power as an energy field, repelling most enemy fire and damaging environmental effects. Depending upon the psychic capacities of the pilot, the Aura can also be used to project various benefitial or harmful effects on the area.

Beegun

This Armsuit weapon launches a group of miniature drones controlled by the ArmSuit's AI (and thus, by the mind of the pilot). They can be used to attack the enemy.

Biowaste

Biowaste is used as a weapon as well. Special launchers containing liquified viral and bacteriological substances have been developed during the Psion War. They pose a danger to anyone using them if not sufficiently protected. The technology of Eden-IV today offers neither means to produce biological weapons nor any means to protect from them, so this weapon is solely used by ArmSuit pilots.

Repeller

The exact opposite of an Attractor, the Repeller uses anti-grav, reverted em fields and cloaking techniques to repell enemy fire from its immedeate vicinity, thus protecting troops around the device during the heat of battle.

Waspgun

A Waspgun is an advanced Beegun using, faster and better armed drones, yet these drones are harder to control.

Digital Weapons

Since Eden-IV was - and partially still is - a place of future tech, a wide array of damaging computer programs had been developed in earlier days to serve as weapons. Some of these, like Xenou, were even designed to hack into minds! Howard Hawkins used a PDA as weapon, transfering a virus called "MyDoom" into enemy machinery to destroy it. The ARGUS spaceship AI is capable of hacking into ArmSouls to disable or even hijack them.
