N7-Elite Apex Tacitcal; Tactical Assault Weapon

[Khivas]

Tactical Assault Weapon System - The N7-Elite Apex Tactical

Affiliation: Technically this is for the Rebels and any ally to them or the Jedi, but since the schematics are being designed by Khivas and then given to the Rebels, one may say this is specifically for them and anyone they choose to give it to.


Ownership: Khivas, for now.


Intent: Developed by Khivas based off of his current N7-Maverick Hunter, this is a contribution from him to the Rebels and other Non-Force Users fighting the Imperium, giving them a dependable hybrid weapon for their operations.


Model: N7-Elite Tactical, Heavy Duty Hybrid Assault Weapon.


Type: Hybrid Dual-Action Carbine/Scatterblaster.


Size: Carbine sized, surprisingly small for such a powerful weapon.


Composition: Can be made of Durasteel with Dallorian insides, or if funds are available, complete fabrication can be used via Dallorian.


Range: 100m top effective range, 15m conal spread, and 40m top effective range for the high explosive charge.


Ammunition Capacity: 50 round magazine for the N7-Elite. As the weapon is double barreled, 50 rounds translate to 25 shots, and this weapon has a unique spread-shot mode as does it's smaller predecessor, which consumes 5 rounds per charge to deliver a dozen smaller bolts in a conal spread.


Description/Features: The N7-Elite Tactical is an assault grade Hybrid Weapon in the same vein of Khivas' personal N7-M.H, in that it can operate as a standard double barreled blaster weapon or upon activation of this unique firing mode, can act as a short range Scatterblaster due to a refraction function built into the weapons barrels and firing chamber, turning it's standard bolts into a spreadsheet of short ranged death. Below is a more detailed list of the weapons features and functions.

- Folding/detachable stock and barrel for concealment purposes.
- Spreadfire capability, firing multiple, smaller bolts all at once to overwhelm an enemy/enemy position.
- Unlike the original, smaller N7-M.H, the Elite boasts semi-auto firing capability for it's spreadfire mode.
- Firing Mode switch, allowing for either a semi-auto fire, two shot burst, or semi-auto spreadfire.
- Unique rail system allows for multiple attachments, ranging from grenade launchers to flashlights to taser bolts, whatever a user may want to attach to it. Rails are located on the left and right side of the barrels, and on top of the weapon itself.

My only question is how do the nerf bullets cause suck huge damage? Seems OP.

 

[Andrewza]

This thing needs to be nerfed

 

[Khivas]

Lol You know my biggest issue with people in Gaming and places where items have a set amount of power to them, is when somebody says "Nerf it" but doesn't suggest what should be nerfed.

Please sir, offer me an idea on what should be nerfed because unlike other people here, I do not know what will and will not fly, hence I throw out a composite of ideas and see what sticks.


Unless of course that was a pun on the nerf darts lol couldn't find a better image than this, and don't lie, this shit's cool as hell.

 

[Andrewza]

It's sarcasim. You because the pic.

 

[Khivas]

Ok cool, so it's not op? Or game breaking or anything?

 

[Black Noise]

Ok cool, so it's not op? Or game breaking or anything?

It was a pun, hold on to yo glutious maximus and calm yo mammaries.

 

[Khivas]

 

[Khivas]

Nerf or nuthin', bruh

 

[Silverface]

A grenade does the same job, better.

 

[Khivas]

Not necessarily, depends on the grenade and how you toss it. Here you kick down a door and just unload. Or if you're out of grenades, ta da, you got an alternative. Other situations pop up that a grenade may not work as well as this and a grenade may work better. Question is, why limit yourself to one or the other?

Affiliation: Technically this is N/A, but since the schematics are being designed by Khivas and then given to the Rebels, one may say this is specifically for them and anyone they choose to give it to.


Ownership: N/A, for now.

Covered above in Affiliation, but would be better placed in Intent. E.g: "Khivas intends to sell/give these plans to the Revels and their Chocolatey Overlords For Chocolate Freedom", Ownership would at least be with Khivas for now.

Intent: The Rebels need a better class of close quarters weapon outside of a standard holdout blaster or carbine, both of which can be stopped by conventional armors, and their Special Forces (if they even have any at the moment) could always use a good "Room Cleaner" when things need to get gone fast. Essentially, the idea was to give the Rebels a scatterblaster and rifle they can rely on in any combat situation, especially in-close tactical ones. Also, no selling of it on Khivas' end, he's not out to get money, but if a weapons tech from the Rebels wants to outsource it for money to select individuals, they may.

I don't see much of a reason to use this, based on your OOC intent, but that's just me. I see nothing technically wrong here, although when we get to the description I'm hoping that there's a good explaination of how this can be both a scatterblaster AND a longblaster at the same time. Italics bit is fluff, wasn't needed, but it's nice to know you care.

Model: N7-Elite Tactical, Heavy Duty Assault Weapon.


Type: Scatterblaster or double barreled Heavy Blaster Rifle.


Size: Medium length rifle, larger than a carbine, but still smaller than the average rifle. It's a weapon that can be used in a tight space.

Name and model are fine, only quoting these together for neatness.

The only thing contradictory is the size. A medium length rifle is still fairly long, whereas a carbine is specifically a weapon class noted for it's size. Namely, being smaller than a rifle ( or more specifically in history, a musket, as a rifle was longer than a musket but that's not relevant :D ). If it's a weapon that can be used in a tight space, then it should, IMO, be carbine sized. Which is honestly going to have no impact on the weapon's performance.

Although this is said with the caveat that there is a 'carbine' in Star Wars lore that's the size of an MG42.. because it was based on the MG42!

Composition: Can be made of Durasteel with Dallorian insides, or if funds are available, complete fabrication can be used via Dallorian.

Dallorian Alloy is a rare and hard to get material. Also extremely expensive because of those factors, usually reserved for artisan weaponry for private clients. I suggest just keeping it to durasteel to keep the cost down, which is perfectly servicable for the weapon, especially as you make a note, twice, of how this is a conceptual weapon designed for other factions ( namely the Revels ) to produce.

Range: 100m top effective range, 15m conal spread, and 45m top effective range for the high explosive charge.

Is this 45m range on the explosive it's fired range, or it's radius? What is the explosive's radius if the 45m is it's fired range? Other than that, it's blastery-pew-pew range is fine, if a little short for a blaster rifle.

I suggest coming back to this with more detail, splitting it's ranges for it's various modes and and being specific. Being specific is great, it removes confusion.

Ammunition Capacity: 50 round magazine for the N7-Elite. As the weapon is double barreled, 50 rounds translate to 25 shots, and this weapon has a unique spread-shot mode as does it's smaller predecessor, which consumes 5 rounds per charge. Additionally, as the Elite is larger than the original version, it has an additional feature; the weapon can take approximately 3 seconds to charge up a high heat concussive blast that is capable of tearing apart heavy armors and blowing through some blast doors and can even disable some mobile armors. This feature requires 10 charges of the weapons power pack.

A little complicated in terms of it's ammunition expenditure ( funny how we call blaster power packs munitions when there's no actual munitons in them ), but otherwise fine. The charge up mode seems a bit too powerful, being able to go right through a Blast Door, which're often several feet thick and designed to seal off sections of a deck in the event of decompression or security. You're basically giving the weapon a 3 second charge up to heavy laser cannon power levels if it can take down a blast door.

I know you said "some" but that's vauge. And vaugeness is bad m'kay. Mobile armour makes me scratch my head, I presume you're reffering to vehicles? Or Gundams. I hope you're talking about Gundams though, because Gundams are pretty awesome.

Description/Features: The N7-Elite Tactical is an assault grade Scatterblaster that also doubles as a heavy blaster rifle, but unlike most of it's kind where it's built to be long and intimidating, the N7-Elite is built to fit in close quarters battles when needed, where it will easily shine the most. The weapon can be painted to better fit an environment or a user's particular tastes, but the stock color is dark covert black, and the Elite comes with a stock loaded with additional ammunition, and the schematics can account for a number of ways to make it for various purposes and roles, from a standard rifle to a heavy sweeper to an anti-armor weapon. Below is a more detailed list of the weapons exact features.

- Folding stock and barrel for concealment purposes.
- Spreadfire capability, firing multiple, smaller bolts all at once to overwhelm an enemy/enemy position.
- Unlike the original, smaller N7, the Elite boasts full semi-auto firing capability for it's spreadfire mode, allowing for a massive sweeping function, which in an open space is rather useless for the most part as it's range isn't enough to cover a proper distance, but in a close environment, such as a room or hallway, this ability is devastating.
- Depending on the manufacturer, this weapon can be made to have a Cortosis weave within the stock and along the weapons sides, allowing a user to defend momentarily against a lightsaber until they can either get away or go out in a blaze of glory.
- Firing switch, allowing for either a semi-auto fire, two shot burst, or semi-auto spreadfire.
- A charge up feature to launch a large concussive heat blast that can disable mobile armor, take out armored suits, and destroy lesser blast doors on smaller ships. Takes 3 seconds to charge up, and it is advisable to let the weapon cooldown and vent it's heat before trying to fire again.
- Unique rail system allows for multiple attachments, ranging from grenade launchers to flashlights to taser bolts, whatever a user may want to attach to it. Rails are located on the left and right side of the barrels, and on top of the weapon itself.

Parts marked in whiteare fluff and while I have no issue with fluff, they're a bit needless in this format. It -is- nice to know that I can spraypaint the gun in pretty colours though! Although I am merely teasing.

I'm not seeing an explaination on how this weapon can function as both a scatter blaster AND a longblaster, unless I'm missing something.

Elements in Bold are "Haha! NO!" bits. I covered the charge up feature above, as giving a small weapon the ability to blast through a blast door is frankly silly and would ruin the weapon's firing mechanism after firing it once. If you were aiming for something akin to Kyle Katarn's pistol, it would need to be seriously toned down. An underslung explosive charge launcher would probably be a better option, but if you're dead set on the chargey-uppy pew pew, it would need to be seriously toned down.

And cortosis weave in the stock, while a nice idea, is hard to do considering how Cortosis is very rare, expensive and basically OP as shit. If you're already going to get a lightsaber to the face, you screwed up to the point where no amount of cortosis or beskar will save you.


Them's my more serious thoughts.

 

[Khivas]

Now this is helpful, thank you. I'll address the parts you got as I come across them.

 

[Silverface]

I prefer being unhelpful. More amusing for me.

:30:

 

[Khivas]

Quick question, is Cortosis actually banned or simply really rare?

 

[Silverface]

I'm going to err on the side of SUPER RARE. I'm not sure if it's 100% banned. Maybe only in specific situations like shorting out lightsabers or making lightsaber proof shenanigans

 

[Khivas]

Well I refuse to short out a lightsaber, I always found that kinda dumb, but if it's possible, I'd like to include that a cortosis weave stock is possible only if the character in question can actually obtain it, which I assume would not be an easy or inexpensive task.

*EDIT

It's removed for now of course, but if it's possible, I wouldn't mind adding it as a feature a gunsmith can do.

 

[Clayton]

Quick question, is Cortosis actually banned or simply really rare?

kinda rare. Pure cortosis is not allowed.

 

[Silverface]

If you can justify it through RP, go for it. But as a mass produced weapon, it won't fly. But as a bespoke piece? I think that'd go through if it's really, REALLY well explained.

 

[Khivas]

Fair enough, thank you guys. I left out the Cortosis part mainly because if a user chooses to use this gun, they can explain anything like that on their own lol

And thank you for taking the time to do this with/for me.
