GRAVITY WEAPONS
Gravitic weapons are offensive manifestations of
artificial gravity, tractor/pressor beam, or hypergravity
technology.
Force Beams (TL10^)
These tightly focused pressor beams (p. 88) deliver a
kinetic impact that can knock a person down or break
bones. Unlike sonic stunners or electrolasers, they can
affect targets in vacuum and inflict blunt trauma even
through heavy armor. They’re also favored by super-gadgeteers, since they’re no more lethal than a powerful punch.
Force beams inflict crushing damage with the double
knockback modifier. The beams are silent and invisible.
Kinetic Stun Setting (TL10^)
Any force beam can fire a kinetic stun setting that
spreads the beam over a wider impact point.
On “stun” the beam has no wounding effect (no HP are
lost). It has its usual double knockback modifier, and can
still inflict blunt trauma and knockback.
Force Beam Weapons
Force Beamer (TL10^): The ranged equivalent of brass
knuckles. The impact of this palm-sized weapon’s force
beam feels like the kick of a mule.
Force Cannon (TL10^): A vehicle-mounted cannon
intended to crack open vehicular armor. It’s especially useful against unbalanced vehicles such as mecha.
Force Pistol (TL10^): A bulky gravity-beam handgun,
favored for its impressive “stopping power.” Its beam can
hammer a man back 12 feet.
Force Rifle (TL10^): This weapon can stun an elephant
or smash someone through a brick wall. This is a lethal
weapon against foes without armor.
Heavy Force Cannon (TL10^): A force cannon suitable
for mounting on ships.
Semi-Portable Force Beam (TL10^): This assault cannon
is usually tripod- or vehicle-mounted, or carried by powered troopers. A human struck by its beam may be thrown
back 50 feet, breaking every bone in his body.

Graviton Beams (TL11^)
A refinement of force beam (p. 128) technology,
these weapons project oscillating hypergravity fields
that crush or vibrate internal organs or components
while leaving the outside unharmed. Heavy graviton
beams may envelop and crush a man-sized target.
Graviton beams are silent and invisible, but the victim will feel crushing pressure and suffocating pain as
the beam squeezes him.
Graviton beams are focused on a discrete point in
space rather than affecting everything in the beam’s
path.
Graviton beams inflict crushing damage with the No
Knockback damage modifier. Although their damage is
low, they are a cosmic attack that ignores all normal
DR. Force screens protect against them, but do so at
1/100 of normal DR.
Graviton Beam Weapons
Graviton Beamer (TL11^): A pocket-sized holdout
weapon. It has limited lethality, but can reach through the
heaviest armor to grind bones and squeeze organs. It is
sometimes used as a torture device.
Graviton Cannon (TL11^): Also called an “implosion
beam.” A single shot can reduce a man to a walnut-sized
sphere, or crush a spaceship’s insides one compartment at
a time!
Graviton Pistol (TL11^): A basic gravity-beam pistol,
somewhat more powerful than a beamer. One shot will
usually cause enough shock to stop an average person.
Graviton Rifle (TL11^): Also called an assault gravbeamer. It crushes a fist-sized area, inflicting enough damage to leave a man unconscious!
Semi-Portable Graviton Beam (TL11^): A heavy personal
weapon with a foot-wide area of effect. Its beam can reduce
bones and organs to jelly.
