Laser Pistol
The standard issue laser blaster, this finely crafted
weapon features a light, durable plastic frame that can
stand up to abuse, a diffusion setting for use as a hand
light, and acomfortable grip. It is often worn low on the
thigh, in a speed draw type holster. The burst setting is
less accurate than the single shot, but it affords
greater firepower when necessary
Range: 800 ft
Rate of Fire: Single and burst only
Payload: 30 shots (or 10 bursts)
Damage: 2D6 per shot (1D4 x10 per burst) |
Vibro Knife
The traditional in close weapon, this simple and ancient
concept of a thrusting weapon has been augmented by a
small, pulsing forcefield. It is this forcefield which
allows the blade to sink into metal as though it were
only thin fabric. Many pilots often carry one of these as
a backup to their pistols.
Range: Close (30 ft when thrown)
Damage: 3D6 (3D4 when thrown) |

Pulser Rifle
This weapon is similar to the Laser Pistol in many ways,
save that it's normal mode is the burst fire setting. It
can be swtiched over to single shots for greater
accuracy, but it's primary function is as an assault
weapon, which it does most admirably. Usually these
weapons are only stored on Rams or in Shuttlecraft, since
they take up a lot of space in a Viper. Other than that,
they are rarely, if ever, issued aboard ship.
Range: 1600 ft
Rate of Fire: Single and burst only
Payload: 60 shots (or 20 bursts)
Damage: 5D6 per shot (2D4 x10 per burst) |
Vibro Sabre
Often a necesseity in jungle environments and in
situations where a simple knife isn't enough but a
blaster or rifle is too much, the Sabre is still a proud
tradition among the Colonials. Typically worn by officers
at formal functions, it also harkens back to the era of
aristocracy, when a Sire was given his authority when he
recieved his blade.
Range: 3 ft
Damage:4D6 |

 The pride and power of the Colonial Fleet is in her sleek, fast and agile Viper Star Fighters. These fast warplanes have fantstic range, speed and maneuverability, and mount impressive weapons on ships so small. They also have a unique thruster reverse system that allows these craft to suddenly manuever from in front of an enemy, to his rear.
The control stick has only four controls on it, making the Viper easy to pilot. A trigger switch for the communicator, and three thumb triggers on top of the stick, the Turbo for super acceleration, the laser cannon firing button, and the retro thruster switch, for applying brakes and reversing direction.

Model
Type: Viper Starfighter
Crew: One Pilot. A
passenger may be accomodated in the small storage space
behind the pilot compartment.
Cargo: usually none. Can
be stripped down for additional storage.SDC by Location:
- Main Body *- 500
- Armored Pilot Compartment - 100
- Stabilizer Wings (3) - 25 Each
- Engines **(3) - 35 each
Laser Cannon*** (2) - 10 Each
* Depleteing the SDC of the Main Body
triggers an auto eject sequence for the Pilot Compartment
(94%) and renders the vehicle inoperative.
** Depleting the SDC of an Engine will likely (65%)
detonate an engine and thus destroy the fighter. The
fighter can continue to operate on two or even one
engine, at reduced speed. Engines can be manually shut
down by the pilot.
*** The laser cannons are difficult to hit at best and
are considered called shots.

Weapon Systems
Linked
Laser Cannon: a standard weapon system
used throughout the Colonial Fleet, this system
of two laser cannon targeting the same position
is exactly the same as the laser turrets and AA
defense systems employed on Battlestars,making
the systems interchangable.
Primary Puropse: Space
Combat/Assault
Secondary Purpose: Ground Straffing, Anti-Warship
Assault
Range: 5 miles Rate of Fire: single
shots (Linked system, both guns fire at once) or
bursts equal to the pilot's attacks per melee
Damage: 7D6 per single shots, 1D6 x10+10
per three shot burst.
Payload: Effectively unlimited, draws
energy from the engines, so as long as the
engines are operable, the guns should have power..
Proton
Torpedo Launcher: Located in the nose of
the Viper is a single launch tube. A Viper can
carry up to two proton torpedoes for use against
large enemy vessels or ground installations. This
system is usually only loaded upon request, as a
direct laser hit on the forward fuselage of the
ship can often detonate the torpedoes. Once
launched at thier primary target, the torpedoes
are self guiding and can avoid incoming attacks
(+5 to dodge) and can even select a secondry
target if the primary target is destroyed.
Primary Purpose: Anti-Ship Assault
Secondary Purpose: Ground Assault
Range: 15 miles Rate of Fire: One
at a time. Speed: 20,000 mph
Damage: 5d6 x10 +100 Payload: 1 or
2 (max)
