Not to be mistaken With Rail Weapons which use magnetism, these weapons use a variety of standard ballistics using a fuel propellant of some kind. Most, if not all, Empires have these in some form, even if they are considered obsolete. These weapons however are still quite deadly regardless, and find plenty of use in the galaxy at Large.
New Covenant SP Weapons
New Covenant has weapons, mostly considered obsolete while others are considered the Epitome of Of this type of Weaponry, has a plethora of these types of Weapons, and are usually used on preference when it comes to Guardsmen.
Infantry Weapons
Machine Guns, Assault Rifles, Pistols, Rifles, and Shotguns can be found in this category. All of these use caseless ammunition and projectiles made from Harden Plastic-ceramic mixes, to Steel-plastic Mixes, though in the case of Shotguns it is usually just steel shot as other types of shot are not as effective.
The Weapons themselves are made from Plastic and steel mix, which makes them light and reliable. The most standard weapon is the G-416 Autogun, which appears as a mix between a M-16 and the AK-47. It was the standard Assault rifle of the Guard forces until being phased out and replaced with more efficient Laser weapons, but large stock piles of the weapons still remain withing New Covenant bases, along with Ammunition. A Variant of this Gun, the G-416H sported an elongated body, and Barrel and fired the same caliber but at higher rates, and could sport either a box or drum Magazine.
The Ammunition for The Autogun is interesting, in that while being solid projectiles weapons one variant of the Ammunition that became most widely used was the Flail round. The Flail round is a Ceramic Plastic round with a plastic explosive charge inside that explodes on contact and sometimes after penetration. This round became widely used and produced in the years before switching to laser weapons and it was highly effective against lightly armored and shielded targets, but was worthless against harder targets such as Power Armored units. Lightly Armored units however are killed easily and shield fall quickly to the rounds, as the Round impact combine with the explosion after adds high amounts of stress to personal shield usually causing them to fail rapidly. In Units with no Armor, death is guaranteed.
Standard ammunition is available in large Quantities, But the Flail round is usually most preferred since it only improves the damage capability of the weapon.
