efore I begin; i am planning on creating my own store front. criticism is welcome, and this is a rough that will be edited for improvement over time, since this is my first REAL store front.
Again. this is a text only rough draft, although some of the complete ones have pics.

A little about us:
Detective Construction & Golomun Enterprises is the leading corporation in the areas of power and defence that is owned partially by the state of S.F.U. of Golomun. (OCC: this means the government controls sales policies that relate only to who gets what and leaves the rest of the affairs to the CEO council) Merged almost a century ago by the then Top three companies in all of Golomun as a profitible alliance (Golomun Shiprights, Detective Construction Industries and Marvel Enterprises); DC&G Eenterprises is a dedicated conglomerate bent on making the galaxies a safer place for all.

Table 1: Mechanical Exosuits of Combat and Hospitality ~ MECH Walkers

"The idea of a MECH has been around since the 1950's, yet it was'nt until the 2040s (almost a full century later) that dreams of MECHs became reality. Since then It has become imperative of any empire or nation not just to have an army of MECHs; but to have the better MECH that anyone else has to offer." - Xhris X. Ross

Experimental Kill-bot Version 1 ~ foot soldier of tomorrow

Height: 2.6m
Top Speed (overcharged sprint, causes catastrophic system failure if overused): 20 kph
Weight: 4 Metric Tonnes

-=Cost: 15,000 USD=-

This second generation of Kill-bot solved a few of the problems of the Prototype VX-01 kill-bot. This robot is more mobile than the original Kill-bot design. It can traverse rougher ground, has a smart targeting chip connected to its eye-cams which selects the 10 most dangerous targets in it's field of vision. As soon as these have been selected the V1 proceeds to fire on said targets until they are no longer a threat (these robots have more abilities at mercy than the original Kill-bot design, if an enemy drops their weapon and moves away from the V1, the V1 will stand down and target the more resolute enemies). They have much less firepower options than the original as they are only armed with standard military issue GD-5 Particle Assault Rifles with a GD-P01 as a back-up weapon. With that aside; The V1 is fully functional to be dropped from the air, it actually absorbs the shock and adds this it's energy banks, allowing it to fire more powerful laser fire for a short period of time until the energy absorbed from the shock is dispersed. The V1 has a great repertoire of songs to frighten the enemy as well. (Ludwig Van Beethoven's 9th Symphony, Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture, Richard Wagner's Ride of the Valkyries and Slayer's Raining Blood). Humanitarian missions are not the strong point of the V1, however it can be specially programmed to make it more suitable for such missions.

Experimental Kill-bot Version 2 ~ Mobile Walking Shield Generator

Height: 3.5m
Top Speed: 15 kph
Weight: 5 Metric Tonnes
Armament: 4 Kilobaud AE (Anti-Everything) Particle cannons
Defences:
4 Micro Temporal shield generators (2.2km FOE)
3 Multi-Phalanx Frequency rotating Shield Generators (2km FOE)
2 Tesla point defence modules (700m Range)
1 layer of Naniogkolium Armour

-=Cost: 70,000 USD=-

These battle-bots are considerably larger than previous models - nicknamed the "Guardian" - and this is for the reason that previous models have been found to be fallible when it comes to considerable explosions. These bots are able to survive a high yield Peace-keeper bomb and have more powerful heavy weaponry than previous models. It is significant however that these are much slower than other models. These bots are best used for defensive purposes though can be dropped from ships to provide heavy defensive capabilities. Also unlike previous models, these can be used as exoskeletons.

The Mammoth MK-II ~ death on four legs

"Let us pray, Regularisations, Half-Life from destiny, passage one; 'Oh great and powerful beast; let thine gigantic death-machine strike fear into thy hearts of thou enemies, so that thou enemy of my enemy might cower in their foxholes, awaiting to be blown to thine tiny bits. And Snuff it..' Ahmen.."

2x (GOM) Ground to Orbit Missile pods
-16x Ground to Orbit LANTR Propelled Missiles per pod

-=Cost: 170,000 USD=-

Designed from the bottom up to take the impact of a 20km asteroid; The Mammoth MK-II is hailed as the next generation of ground warfare in the midset that it can and will take on all known types of sustained fire from a hand grenade to a full blown anti-matter explosion, and still be able to take on a fortress and planetary army at once. And With good cause too; the Mammoth is armed to the tusk with the latest military hardware. From the 255mm Gauss cannon that can shread shields, let alone armour, in a single shot; To the multi loadout missiles that can take out anything from a Battle-station to a ********** dreadnaught in under a couple of minutes. From an engineering stand point, it seems very hard to disagree; and ver wery if facing it at all.

GDA-2000 ~ Standard Tungsten Machine Gun

-=Cost: $3,000 USD=-

The STMG is a fully automatic Gauss machine gun with integrated four barrelled Gatling cooling system for sustained fire support and extreme rapid fire. This anti-infantry weapon uses Standard Tungsten 8.62x69.85 mm NATO Gauss rounds for maximum penetration and stopping power. This design also allows for the use of other Gauss ammunition types, and even firing whole 7.76mm chemical shell projectiles used by even the most low-tech of enemies. Built by DC industries in 200 A.E.E. and still in use till this day for its reliability and usefulness. it has seen combat in every major conflict that the GDF have been apart of. As mentioned before, the rate of fire is tremendous which puts stress on the built in recoil compensator's that must be used to prevent the users limb from being torn off. Even so, it has show time and time again that having a moving wall of Tungsten is still very useful. especially when you have a whole army force of infantry lining up for the kill.

Length: 1900 mm
Width: 101.3 mm

GD-3 Ionic Auto-Cannon Assault Rifle ~ Gooey to the point of very gooey
"Holy SHI-" ~ the Violette Cult Leader; before he was turned to dust
-=Cost: $15,000 USD=-

The Ionic ACA Rifle was the first Weapon to test the properties of Portable ion Cannons. Built by DC Industries in 300 A.E.E. for the GDF Main assault and tactical Rifle program, and chosen Notably for the fact that with a rate of fire of about 1200 rounds per minute and the amazing capacity for firing well over 5000 shots before the battery needed replacement. Also, It has proven its worth in the Violette Cult War, practically ending the conflict before it even started; thanks to its ability to fire while submerged in mud, being crushed by a Mammoth MK-I, and even in some cases, taking a direct rocket hit and still being able to cut through armour and energy shielding like a knife through butter. This Rifle alone gave DC industries the prestige it needed to become the main contractor for the GD Series of next gen tools of defence. And almost 350 years after the VC war, it has and still is the second most revolutionary piece of equipment in existence. Not to mention, the only Ion Cannon Machine gun in the GD-series.

Length: 900 mm

GD-5 ~ Particle Assault rifle AKA "Walker killer"

-=Cost: $18,000=-

The GD-5 is the brain child of Mr.Ross himself; utilizing Electrons/particles stored in the ammunition box and in vicinity of the weapon, the portable particle cannon makes short work of both hard and very hard targets. Practically turning the target into a very hot goo due to the extreme heat from the pulse. Built for mobility, the GD-5 is made entirely of a Naniogkolium Composite alloy that allows it to weigh in at a mere 2kg whilst also gives it the ability to withstand the high energy discharge and even turn the excess heat back into energy. A key feature of the weapon is its ability to build up potential energy for a much larger and longer fired shot; potentially giving it a punch of a 10MT nuclear detonation. The secondary fire is, - in essence -, an extremely 'over the top' and overly simple Plasma-'flame'-thrower; just by having the on board HUD modify the magnetic field matrix at the muzzle, this spreads the particles to a wider audience.

(OCC:range may be obscure, but it IS a particle cannon-turned-rifle normally used for Grizzly Gf-105 aircraft)

Primary Fire: 170 RPM Particle Beam
-Effective Range: 24.2km before particle degradation
-may be charged for longer => more powerful shot
-Known to destabilize atomic structure atoms;
-=Caution needed to avoid rapid nuclear fission reaction within targeted material=-

Secondary: Short Range Particle thrower
-particle degradation at .5m
-Maximum Effective Range: 12.4m
-for Close Quarters Combat only

Length: 1.3m
Width: 14cm
hight: 23cm
Weight: 2.001 kg
Power System: Interchangeable Rechargeable Nano Fusion Battery Ammo Box(100g each; 6000 shots before reload needed)

GD-6 ~ Nuclear Shotgun

The GD-6 was built as a self defence weapon for drivers of the MK-I Mammoth; it is a high yield portable Shot gun that utilises micro nuclear pellets fired at medium velocity. Each shot contains 6x 5mm micro detonated nuclear fission spikes with a steel-lead alloy coating; fired via an electromagnetic pulse-rail system. The firing process is simple, first the MAG-plate is moved aside to allow collection of the shot, next the collection Anode is activated to collect the needed shot after which, the MAG-plate is put back in place and the spikes are then discharged and accelerated to a muzzle velocity of 450m/s. Upon exit, the velocity and air resistance melts thin metal coating that kept the spikes in place and thus allows the spikes to spread at a 10-16 degree angle.

To put things into perspective, this is essentially a rail nuclear shotgun. Now one may ask "why re-invent the wheel when a perfectly traditional one does the same job?" the reason is quite simple, for one to have a compact nuclear shotgun the engineers had to use this system since the shot is the size of a 30mm grenade cartridge. And when your dealing with multiple nuclear fission devices on such a small level you need to have a way to prevent the munitions from mistaken detonation let alone space to wobble. With that aside, it is a very devastating short to medium ranged weapon that will make your enemies think twice before messing with you.

GD-Carbine Model 9 ~ Vintage-Series Semi auto grenadier



-=Cost: $1000 USD per 12x case=-

Lovingly dubbed the 'GD-9', this rifle is a 50. calibre assault rifle that dates back to the time before Golomuns exodus from earth. Originally developed as the answer to the previously failed OCIW program by the USA 40 years before, this successful rifle was the mainstay of all military branches before the development of more powerful Gauss rifles. Although its old, it is still a remarkable design for a carbine. To reduce recoil, the GD-9 incorporated a numatic reload system that redirected the recoil energy into reloading each and every shot. Thus making the massive calibre's recoil bearable to even a child; which regrettably is what the Violette's used in the first incursion back on earth. Another neat feature is using the space saved by the nematic system to house a magazined semi-auto grenade launcher. Of course, thier exists no air burst mode for obvious logistic reasons. (only using 30mm HE/Smoke rounds) And if that where not enough, the engineers at the then, Marvel Enterprises designed the perfect optical system. Amazingly immune to EMP, the TN-C6 optics where ahead of their time with a built in 'gun cam' and variable optical settings for any and all lighting conditions and even allowed the user to see any thermal signature from up to 5km away. Over the years of course, upgrades have gone into this impressive machine. Mainly having to do with extending the original range from 3km to a reliable 5km; and also the development of a sniper variant with an extended barrel and better optics for unparalleled 15km range and pin-point accuracy.

"Some in Parliament thought that building a smaller vessel was of no use except when chasing pirates through asteroid fields.

One could be forgiven for thinking that G-Spotworks engineers do not subscribe to the "less is more" mantra of many other engineers. This is not an altogether false assertion, but if less is more, think how much more more is! This ship could undoubtedly tear apart an entire fleet of ships while not sustaining any damage itself. This is thanks to the layers of Naniogkolium Armour, fourteen temporal shield generators, twelve energy absorbing shield generators, and an array of Cerberus Mk. XII Capital weapons that stand side by side with the largest 'gun per inch' ratio in the universe. In short, it is a moon sized mass of hell that can devestate whole empires all on its own; A must have for any fleet of distinction.

DC-1501 Starbell Class ~ A Beauty of a Beast

--=Cost: $250 million USD per vessel=-

The Star-bell is the first Tactical Cruiser ever conceived by Golomun Shipwrights. Its original purpose was and is to seek, infiltrate and destroy any and all threats that where deemed overkill for the use of a Starboard class. Such as Fighters, Drones, Battle Cruisers and other stuff that is used as fodder during battle so as to allow the Starboard class to do its magic. Not to mention infiltrating criminal bases and traversing through asteroid fields too dense for the Starboard Class. Of course, in the extremely unlikely event that the vessel is detected and pulled through to reality from its Pocket Dimension, Engineers built into it the most sophisticated set of defences and weaponry ever created for a ship of its size.

PeaceKeeper 'Planet Cracker' IPBM ~ when you need a Big-Bang

-=Cost: $200,000,000=-

The Peacekeepers were designed for the P.A.D. Defence program as a high yield 3 stage guided interplanetary ballistic missile with a TMMT laser drill for deep penetration of ships and a planets core in under one minute. Thus is, for all intensive purposes, a weapon of mass destruction with potential blast radius of over 26237km2 and the abilitty to 'crack' a planet into two. Another keen ability is the delivery system: if an interception solution is detected and cannot be avoided, all warheads will be deployed with an emergency guidance system with three to four of which will seek out nearest and largest enemy vessel via optical system and act as decoys whilst the rest continue to main target.

=SPECIFICATIONS=

Size:
-13.41m high
-2.11m wide

Mass:
-25,142kg

Engine:
-LANTR (LOX-augmented Nuclear Thermal Rocket) powered by fission reactor
--The concept involves the use of a "conventional" hydrogen (H2) NTR with oxygen (O2) injected into the nozzle. The injected O2 acts like an "afterburner" and operates in a "reverse scramjet" mode. This makes it possible to augment or vector (and vary) the thrust (from what would otherwise be a relatively small NTR engine) at the expense of reduced Isp.
--allows the main rocket vehicle to become a guided tactical fusion bomb

Max Speed: 1 AU/s

Payload:
-11x Matter/Anti-matter Fusion devices w/maximum yield of 130GT each
-1x Fusion reactor w/Potential Yield of 130MT

Anomaly Auto Cannon MK-VI ~ USE AT OWN RISK

-=Cost: $100,000,000,000 USD=-

The Anomaly Auto cannon is designed and built to be the ultimate weapon. The only 'Wormhole-Weapon' in the GDF arsenal; and for good reason. Upon firing, The anomaly starts off as a micro 'black-hole' and doubles its size every 5 seconds or so. At first the gravity field is minor, only objects with a mass of 1.7 grams or lower will be effected. Yet as it doubles, the gravity well increases; and thus the amount of mass it has an effect on. the potential of this weapon is staggering, not only could it rip apart an unlucky dreadnought, but whole quadrants and then some. For example, After about an hour, half a system would be gone, 2 days a whole sector of space; a week... well, lets just say safeties have been provided that Prevent it from engulfing an entire galaxy.

=SPECIFICATIONS=

Size:
-300m long
-100m diameter

Requirements:
-Since this requires an amount of power akin only to four yellow suns, it may only be mounted to vessels of 15km size or larger
=NOTE: may be fitted on vessels of smaller size if and only if the vessel has the power. (which we highly dought)

Range:
-Staggering.

The Virgil TM-MT ~ The Journey begins

A Virgil Trans-Mantel Mass Transport (TM-MT) During Final Construction
-=Cost: $2,000,000 USD for 1x Virgil TM-MT and 4x Cargo Pods =-
"My Name is Dr. Brazzleton, and Virgil is My idea. She is Designed to transport up to 75 Cargo pods through the Mantel, and yes the core of a planet. It does this by using a Supped up Gatling Laser Drill that either melts or Vaporises the material at the front of the train. The vessel is Propelled by a electromagnetic turbine; along with 'Ring' Lasers Which Create a drilling/Laser Turbine Motion that propels the craft forward whilst at the same time, keeps the material around the Craft Liquefied. To turn the Pilot twists the craft in the same manner as a snake to control where the transport goes. To get to the opposite side of planet in under 1 hour whilst carrying thousands and thousands of tonnes of cargo, Virgil just has to drill through at 42,000km/h to compensate for gravitational forces at the core. {And Believe me there are no planetary side effects to my vehicle, I myself have been living down at the core of New Golomun for 20 years without the government finding out until 2 years ago.} the only reason that the Virgil does not just melt like butter, is the Armour. Naniogkolium is a meta-material that directly converts Heat/Energy and pressure into Pure energy at the Sub-Atomic level while maintaining a 99.9998% level of transformation Efficiency; the energy of which is used to reinforce itself and provide power if need be. The Only known way of Destroying a Naniogkolium molecule or even welding it; is by Exposing it to the core of a Black Hole for 2 mins and fifty-nine point two seconds, where there exists no Heat but Vast Gravitational Fields that stretches the Protons and Neutrons of Naniogkolium to the point of collapse; In essence, ripping apart the armour at the sub atomic level. I even tried a Kinetic round at the speed of light, and all THAT did was make a scratch. On the final note, the Virgil comes in a bunker variant, allowing the transportation of whole battalions to sub-terrain safety."

Atomic 3D imaging Production Facilities ~ from a box to a building

-=Cost: $75,000 USD per Box =-

The Atomic 3DI Production Factory (or as some call it the "3D atomic holographic construction set") is an amazing feat of engineering, from a cube approximately 60cm long by 20cm wide and high; to a full blown production facility the size of a modern day skyscraper in a matter of hours. the Default setting of which is building a Production Factory; which will significantly reduce cost and production time for any and all products. To operate, the user specifies the required dimensions of the building, places it at the specified location (whilst using GPS), and just has to press 'Start' to activate the construction process. in a matter of 1 to 8 hours later, depending on specifications, a fully built self-powered building now exists for use.

Also comes in a programmable Shipyard variant; able to produce a StarBOARD Dreadnought in under 2 hours

Naniogkolium, in its liquid state, is -20,000c below zero when first produced; to mould it into the the shape and curve you want, you need the NBH welder. the welder makes use of its own Micro-black hole generator; The black-hole it emits, releases graviton radiation that acts as a bonding agent for the liquid Naniogkolium, causing the molecules to form a crystallized structure at the sub atomic level.

All information into the inner workings cannot be disclosed at this time. All information that can be offered is that the temporal core has a lifespan of several million years; with the power output of a galaxy sized Dyson Sphere. Which by itself means that the core will make any Singularity Power Core look like a Fusion battery. The temporal core is an excellent and viable alternative to unstable universe power cores that leak anomalous particles that could potentially destroy the very nature of our universe.

Mammoth: Gun calibers are nice to know. If this is an AFV/ground-vehicle; then I'd suggest making this a tracked hovercraft.

GD-10 is a 'Dally gun' by description, please read the sticky on why this idea is litterally made of fail.

GD-P01: I see what you did thar. Absolute-Range in space is meaningless. Time-to-target is more important.

GD-3: The new IGNORE-cannon

GD-4: So your troops shoot ATGMs w/o a lock-on?

Shotgun: No.

what i forgot to put down is that this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9nOkO8Sh2xs

inspired me to create big burtha. a shoulder mounted 78mm cannon. except mine is gauss. :D

someone send muncher to here

please

Izi summoned me, LET THE GAMES BEGIN!

I AM TRANSFORMED!



Alright, so, this will take a long time, so we'll probably end up doing it in sections

huge, why bother with that size when you can just make a smaller flying reactor with a hyperdrive and slam it into the enemy planet? FTL makes RKVs hilariously epic, and an omgswarm of FTL RKVs would be amazing.

The weapons numbers cited are sort of strange. If you're going this large, use all that mass to make a HUGE laser in the center. Then using mirrors and prisms, siphon off laser energy and melt enemy ships. And I mean melt.

Treknobabble is frowned upon here.

The transport inhibitor and newton's second law of motion don't get along at all. Oh, and 10km is docking distance in space. Point blank is a few hundred km. More normal engagement ranges might be along the lines of "from the earth to the moon" or "an AU," depending on the weapons used.

What's the difference between a missile and a suicide drone with a warhead? Not much. What's the difference between a fighter drone and a suicide drone with a warhead? At least twice the delta-V. Don't bother with fighter drones. Just go with more suicide drones with warheads (aka missiles) FITAS IN SPEEEEES is just a bad idea, space fighters are only there for omg space opera reasons. They're really fail from a physics perspective, and making them unmanned doesn't really help their case much.

Tiberian Sun wasn't even that good! I mean, it was okay, but it had nothing on the original!

I'm not sure you realize how fast you're talking for some of these things. For example, your 80mm gun here fires faster than the speed of light. Note that light is 3*10^8 meters/second, that's 3*10^5 km/s. So, uhh, reduce that. By about 4 orders of magnitude at the least. People here can tell you what reasonable tank round speeds are (and yes, these are somewhat locked by the physics of ballistics and air resistance, go too fast and your round vaporizes from heat)

Also, your engineers will HATE you for that RPM.

The Gauss Shotgun won't work like that. Your scout is too small to go that far (energy storage density problems, probably a hard physical limit somewhere in there), and you should never give every grunt in your army a scout like that.

DALLIE GUNS FAIL. HUGELY. Energy density hates them, field maintenance hates them, training hates them, everything hates them. I can make a purpose designed weapon that only does one function that will be cheaper, lighter, and more effective.

Velocity is 2/3 the speed of light (not happening)

In fact, this one is hillarious because a 10mm bullet traveling at 2*10^8 meters/second isn't a hand weapon. It's a freaking weapon of mass destruction. Firing that in-atmo is akin to setting off a low yield nuclear bomb, but instead of a point blast, it starts in your hands and stretches for probably a whole three feet before the thing is totally vaporized.

Even then, no one could ever fire that. Even neglecting all relativistic effects, a 10 gram 10mm bullet would give you 2*10^6 kg*m of impulse, in the realm of "turning the person that fired it into a fine red mist from the impulse."

1200 RPM is uncontrollable by a nonaugmented human being and unnecessary for an augmented one.

"Range" in space is silly except for lasers. Oh, and ion canons and other charged particle beams disperse nigh instantaneously in vacuum, due to that whole mutual electrostatic repulsion thing from being electric monopoles. It's like throwing a diffuse gas at the enemy, that then gives them a mild static shock when they touch the next door handle.

in-atmo,things are different due to an interesting coaxial electric current that gets generated.

So you can lob your extremely expensive rockets around as unguided grenades? AKA you're spending a tremendous amount of money on overcomplicated grenades? Why not just make a grenade launcher and a rocket launcher?

slugs won't travel farther than flechettes most likely, and flechette guns aren't really novel. Or all that good. And you're describing a very expensive way to do what's done just fine with a dollarmart boomstick (CUE HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN)

Once again, your velocities are somewhat mad. You're talking 10^4 m/s, arm breaking regions for that sort of weapon. And your Mach 165 is 5.6*0^4 m/s assuming sea level standard atmo mach you're using (341 m/s).



Skimming the rest screams a lot of techwank and handwavium, much of which violates thermodynamics, kinematics, and other things. One that stuck out is:

Sorry, but if I see a ship, I'll see a drive signature. From that drive signature and from the ship's response to it, I know what ship class you are, how heavy you are (meaning how much fuel you have left), how hard you're burning, and can probably take a stab at guessing exactly which ship in a class you are.

So you don't just need to cloak the ship, you need to cloak the ship and its entire exhaust plume all the way back the last few AU. And you'd better not maneuver in a way I know your cover ship can't, or you're going to get fingered as a cloaked superdreadnought and atomized. Also, the laws of thermodynamics frown at you altering the amount of heat released.

All matter can withstand those forces. The question is can it retain that shape, and inter-atomic physics suggest no. People keep babbling about neutronium in stars, and while it's probably nonsense, there's no real reason to assume our knowledge of physics will alter enough to allow such armors.

And what the heck is Naniogkolium armor?

itt temporal accord

Anti-matter has that annoying habit of interacting with interstellar hydrogen quite vigorously. The number density of space is, well, low enough that people talk in "number densities per cubic meter" rather than in mass density, but high enough that you'll find your rounds lacking umph when they reach their target.



READ ATOMIC ROCKET!
You don't have to read it all (I haven't nearly done so), but it has good information in it and will clear up most of the issues I've brought up. Stuff about the square/cube law that makes huge tanks impossible, energy density issues that mean simple single purpose weapons will still greatly outperform dial-a-guns, and info on why there's NO.STEALTH.IN.SPACE and how propulsion systems actually work.

A must read if you're going to sell something in FT.

THIS IS WHY I ASKED FOR HELP! BECAUSE I KNEW THE WHOLE THING WAS FLAWED!!! lol!
THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR YOUR FEEDBACK! MORE IS APPRECIATED!

I will now edit the original post and fix! :)

PS: Naniogkolium: Meta-material I made up; inspired by the vessel in "The Core".
Except able to withstand the pressures of the core of a red dwarf. basically giving piece of mind that the ship/walker will stand up to anything.

Again, thank you for everything, 'no endorse'? or was it "muncher"?
including the website which i will read before i fix store details.
(fix may take a day or two....so lets keep it as work-in-progress? thanks!)

"Dial-A-Gun"s:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoner_63

(all hell, might as well go with the ZF-1 instead of reinventing it as a GD-10; oh well, i like to re-invent the wheel from time to time :D)

No Endorse is Number Muncher, or 'Munchie' as we tend to call him.

You'll find out why, eventually.

Stone-63 was a failure, and averaged about as well as an assault-rifle with a detachable belt-feed mode. Which really wasn't that impressive...

'The core' was a "geo-physists WILL cry" movie.

The Stoner 63 isn't a dial a gun (although it is startling like my NESR-21) It's really just the XM-8 before the XM-8 came around. Different barrels aren't a novel idea.

The way it works is that the receiver can be either belt or magazine fed, and you can put in different barrels based upon how long you want to fire, or how much you're firing. Note that you're not changing ammunition types (from bullet to shotgun to flamethrower or stuff like that) Everything is chambered in the same round. (well, there were two variants, a 7.62 and a 5.56) It's basically an XM-8, on which you can find much more coherent information, with some idiot magazine/belt feed combined thing.

Actually, the NESR-21 system is preferable, because then you actually do get pseudo dial-a-gun performance, but only by removing and replacing the barrel/chamber assembly and having to live with using a 7.62mm bullet for everything.
http://z4.invisionfree.com/NSDraftroom/ind...wtopic=6114&hl=

EDIT: Bushmaster ACR is also moving in the direction of only having to swap out the barrel/chamber and magazine, though since they're also targeting differing calibers they have a bolt face swap option as well.





Anyways, dial a guns are crap.

what about the ZF-1?... that's a dial a gun, and it looks cool!... it even has a red button... i wish mine had a red button v.v

i'll head your advice, gd-10 will now be a gauss/ion-cannon rifle; i still say ion cannons have no recoil. and yes, shot guns are useless.... unless they are tesla shockguns!!!!
http://www2.cnrs.fr/en/195.htm

and it works with this rifle too! its half ion cannon, half gauss! you just need to disable the guide beam, and BAM! energy shotgun! am i right? it is bits of particles going in random directions (ie. shots or pellets). three modes of firing! if i cant have five, then three it is!!! haha!

spoil my fun if you must, but spoil it in a way that makes me feel good about myself :D

Charged particle beams in atmosphere = everyone gets a face full of ionizing radiation. Everyone.

Ditch nanites for the atomic holography thing Stross came up with for Accelerando.

qft



Dial-a-guns just don't have good enough energy density to be worth the effort. You're basically carrying a number of guns at once, except they're all bolted together. Unless you're Sigourney Weaver, you're not going to carry a shotgun, a flamethrower, a machine gun, and a grenade launcher all at once. It's just too heavy to carry all of that PLUS an ammo load to make it worthwhile PLUS food PLUS armor PLUS comms gear PLUS all the other eleven dozen things a soldier carries into battle. Note how the OICW project was a hilarious failure.

Insofar as you can take the exact same mechanism and make it do different things, if you're not adding weight you're good.

thanks to your reply and thorough explanation, the GD-10 will only be two in one, for logistics reasons. a gauss assault rifle with an under-slung particle weapon. my thinking is this: gauss spikes can only do so much damage, yes they can take out infantry and light armoured vehicles very easily, but when you are in combat and you have a guy inside a heavy flying tin can, might as well melt the bastard. or at least slice them in two.

BTW: i will be adding a thorough description to my original post about the GD-10. i would be honoured if someone such as your self reviewed it.

Sounds sort of like the FT equiv. of the underbarrel grenade launcher, so that can get a pass. We all know how fun UGLs are
