Weapons

Bolt Weaponry-Bolt Weapons are a type of projectile weapon used by the Imperium of man. Bolt Weapons are smoothbore guns that fire specialised ammunition, known as Bolts. Bolts have two stages of propultion. The first is a rather standard explosive charge inside the catridge, the second is inside the actual bolt, which contains a rocket engine. This gives bolts superior firepower over more conventional projectile weapons. Many diferent varients of Bolts are used for specialist, the most common with this is an armor peircing high explosive round.

The Imperial Space Marines make heavy use of Bolt Weapons as small arms. Due to the expense of manufacturing them and their ammunition, Bolt Weapons are generally not issued as small arms to the Imperial Guard, although they are used as Heavy Machine guns as both tripod mounted weapons and as Vehicle weapons and a few Elite soldiers, commanders and Imperial Commissars are often equiped with Bolt Pistols.

Las Weaponry-Imperial Laser weapons are among the most common weaponry used by the Imperium of Man in many forms ranging from infantry small arms to capital ship level weapons.

The Standard Infantry Weapon of the Imperial Guard is the Lasgun, a cheap, reliable and easy to manufacture Laser Rifle. The firepower of the standard Lasgun is 19 Megajoules per shot, more powerful sniper rifle varients exist, sacrificing rate of fire for sheer firepower. Larger, more powerful versions known as Lascannons are often used as anti-tank weapons.

A more advanced form of Las Weaponru are Hell Weapons, which offer greater power but are more costly to produce and somewhat harder to maintain.

Plasma Weaponry-The Imperium makes use of Plasma Weaponry, but it is a very unrefined technology. While an Imperial Plasma Gun offers greater firepower than Las or Bolt weaponry or even the Pluse Weapons of the Tau Empire, Imperial Plasma weapons are dangerously unstable and all too often it literally blows up in the user's face. This, combined with high production costs severely limit the Imperium's usage of Plasma Weapons.

The Imperium makes use of both Handheld Plasma Rifles and Pistols, as well as equiping it on Leman Russ Executioners, a vehicle which has crews that have a reputation for being insane.

Flame Weaponry-The Imperium of man makes heavy usage of flamethrowers making use of an advanced fuel known as Prometheum. Flamethrowers are seen as the Emperor's fury clensing evil with fire. Among the groups that make heavy usage of Flame Weaponry are the Salamanders Chapter of Space Marines, Catachan Jungle fighters and the forces of the Adepta Sororitas. Several Vehicles, including Hellhounds, Catachan patern Sentinels and Immolators are also equiped with Flamers.
