Special Weapons

Weapons with special rules are described below.

Flechette Cannon

The flechette cannon does not make attack rolls. Rather than traditional power cells, the flechette cannon uses specialized projector tanks, which, when fired, spray an area with the contents of the tank. Projector tanks require your target to make a saving throw to resist the tank’s effects. It can have different ammunition types loaded simultaneously, and you can choose which ammunition you’re using as you fire it (no action required). If you don’t meet the flechette cannon’s strength requirement, creatures have advantage on their saving throws. If you lack proficiency in the flechette cannon, you must roll the damage dice twice and take the lesser total.

Grenade Launcher

Rather than traditional power cells, the grenade launcher fires grenades. When firing a grenade at long range, or if you don’t meet the grenade launcher’s strength requirement, creatures within the radius of the grenade’s explosion have advantage on the saving throw. If you lack proficiency in the grenade launcher, you must roll the damage dice twice and take the lesser total.

Rocket Launcher

Rather than traditional power cells, the rocket launcher fires specialized projectiles in the form of rockets. When firing a rocket at long range, or if you don’t meet the rocket launcher’s strength requirement, creatures within the radius of the rocket’s explosion have advantage on the saving throw.

Shoulder Blaster

Mounted by the shoulder slot, a shoulder blaster does not require a free hand to use. Additionally, you have advantage on Strength ability checks and saving throws to avoid being disarmed of this weapon.
