EQUIPMENT FROM

with thanks.

Welcome to weapons and equipment from the fringe!
This volume sets out to present all of the basic
weapons, equipment from the laserburn series of
rules books, all in one, easy to read booklet. Along
with the basic weapons and equipment, I present a
further selection of items, some taken from
material published on the ‘A few Gonads more’
website by other players, and others devised by
myself.
You should try to own all of the rulebooks for
Laserburn to be able to use this volume to its full
extent, as some entries for items refer you to the
full rules in the official publications.
With a Galaxy full of guns, grenades, vehicles and
equipment, what is presented here is obviously
meant only to be a guide to what could be available
in a particular location. Gun types are just
examples of the many thousands of contemporary
variants which will be found across the Cosmos, so
Umpires should be flexible if players wish to deviate slightly from the statistics given, of
course the cost may go up or the availability down!
Vehicle types and variations can vary considerably
depending on the type of world they are found on.
So transport vehicles may have to endure freezing
cold, searing heat, airless worlds, tempestuous gas
worlds or the like, and be propelled via wheels,
tracks, anti- grav platforms, jets, internal
combustion engines, giant wings, propellers or any
number of exotic propulsion methods. Devise new
vehicles to suit the planet or scenario they are being
used with!
Please feel free to add weapons and equipment to
the lists given, and share this information with other
laserburn players as far as possible. It is only by
doing this that the Hobby and the game can stay
alive.
Finally thanks to:
Tabletop games for Laserburn itself!
Tony Yates for many of the pictures.

LASER WEAPONS (L.A.S.E.R=Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. The device produces a
focused beam of light at a defined wavelength that can vaporize tissue and other materials)
Lasers are the standard weaponry of the military, a laser fires short pulses of energy which will sear flesh and in
the right conditions, melt steel. All lasers can also be adjusted so as to project a continuous beam, but owing to the
huge demands on the weapons battery, the beam is short lived (damage as per bolt hit, uses all the weapons shots
in one go). All lasers can also be adjusted to fire a ‘low power’ shot

Lightweight Atomic Battery (10cm long)
Atomic Battery technology:
Early in the 22
nd
Century, discovery of new radioactive
materials enabled scientists to develop Atomic batteries.
Able to convert the enormous stored nuclear energy
contained in a highly radioactive lump of Ursulium into
many other forms of energy, this revolutionized the
weaponry, vehicular and other energy fueled industries.
Early batteries were dangerous to use and had the annoying
tendency to explode, they were also an environmental
disaster. But with centuries of refinement and
sophistication, the current, lightweight, portable devices
are common place. Recycling and disposal of the batteries
is still a current issue with this technology, and explains in
part
the
current
high
price-
per-
unit.
Standard Battery (12cm long)
Vehicular atomic batteries are cheaper than the more
compact versions but much larger and heavier, as they use
heavier , slower energy release isotopes.

SLUG THROWERS
These are the descendants, and close relatives, of the conventional small arms of the 20
th-23rd
century. Dum-dum or
smash head ammo is available for man stopping power, and armour piercing rounds for hard targets.
A little passé but still
favoured by some
diehards for its no-
nonsense sturdiness
and simple
mechanism
Also called slug gun,
simple automatic
pistol
Simple but effective,
any competent
blacksmith can knock
one up. Traditional
weapon of the
gangster,
revolutionary and
terrorist
Increased range
