Seems like somebody was playing a little too much Final Fantasy VIII, am I correct?

No clue about the rest though.

From my 1967+ TL. The Titan-class Assault Mech. The first mech to utilize myosin polymer as internal musculature and the first mech to use manipulator hands, which allow it to grasp and use armaments, making it very versatile in the field.

And along the same lines of that previous mech, this.
Though, this one is from several milennia later, during the Second Universal War (7153-7204).

These are some weapons a buddy of mine did for me for NationStates. Don't know if they'll ever see the light of day in a story here, depends entirely on whether or not I get the motivation to hit the release switch on the cage to my plot bunnies.

Damn. Those are pretty fucking cool.
So, by "Pulse Rifle", do you mean that the firing sequence is triggered electronically rather than chemically?

A rifle firing caseless ammo by way of an electronic trigger, yes. My buddy did a diagram, as well. Here it is:

Interesting place to put the mag. Reminds me of the G-11 or the P90. Ergonomically effecient, though.:cool:

Eh. All I got are handheld autocannons.:D

The mag placement was inspired by the P90, so it's no surprise that the reminder is there for you to pick up on.

I didn't draw those, a friend of mine did. I believe he used Adobe Illustrator. As for the propellant, it's a pressure-molded solid propellant with high heat properties so there are no cook-off problems that are commonly associated with less advanced propellants in caseless weapons..
