Nuclear-Era Weapons


Electric Flashlight

Pocket Slick, Charges

This device will work as an ordinary electric flashlight is supposed to work, but it has an additional property: if the switch is slid all the way forward and then depressed, a dazzling burst of light will flash from the reflector. The resulting glare can stun an opponent for the few crucial moments during which an agent can take action.

Any characters within 4 meters who are unprepared for the flash (those whom the user surprised or whose Dodge you exceeded) lose shots equal to the outcome and suffer half Move and -2 on all ranged actions for the rest of the sequence.

There is enough power for 20 hours of normal operation; each "dazzle" attack equals one hour of normal operation.

Explosive Bolas

Pocket, Redemption

This weapon appears as two heavy balls, each about the size of a plum, connected by a thin meter long cord. The two balls contain a substance which, like the marble grenades, explodes when it impacts on something with sufficient force. Like regular bolas, this weapon is meant to be thrown. However, whenever it hits a target (whether the target is the intended target or not), the bolas wrap around it for a pointblank explosion with a damage value of 15 plus twice the outcome of the attack. This weapon is usually used against particularly heavy opponents, such as cyborgs and demons.

Reflective Ninja Suit

Trenchcoat

A reflective ninja suit is a body suit of a mirror like material. Normally, it reflects random light, and appears bright. When you move in a certain way it casts confusing reflections, increasing your dodge bonus to +5. When you are moving about slowly, it reflects surrounding materials, and can thus act as camouflage in any terrain, just as a ninja suit designed for that terrain.

You must be trained in the use of this suit (have purchased the schtick permanently) in order to use it's abilities.

Taser

Jacket

A small dart-pistol with a high-voltage charge generator. When fired, two micro-thin cables shoot out at high speed toward the target, snaking around it when they hit and delivering a powerful electrical charge to the victim. The cables are about 5 meters long.

The darts and the electric charge have a Damage rating of 8. The victim loses a number of shots equal to the Wound Points inflicted. The cables remain attacked until the target's next action, or until someone takes an action to pull it out; you can give the target additional shocks, with a damage of 8 directly to the target's Constitution (no to-hit roll required).

Yo-Yo Buzz Saw

Unconcealable

This buzz saw was made of a special tungsten alloy, capable of cutting through almost any substance. Powered by a series of lithium power cells, the buzz saw has the unusual capability to extend like a yo yo, hitting foes more than 10 feet out of arm's reach

The buzz saw is dangerously heavy, and the lowest of Martial Arts and Strength is used to attack with it. It does damage 15**. It's user is also vulnerable to a variety of stunts.
