Nemesis Designs

*Nemesis Designs*

Note: Most notational methodology is future-proofing

Weapons:

Weapons are given in the form [Type Letter][Style Letter][Size Number], with a following A[Version Number] for revisions of the design

Type letter can be a number of things, as noted below:
    L - Laser weaponry. Typically has high penetrative power but only medium damage. Further, range drop-off is noticeably greater in smaller weapon classes
    P - Plasma weaponry. Typically hits noticeably harder but has much reduced penetrative power.
    R - Radiation weaponry. Typically has pisspoor range but more or less ignores armour
    F - Flame weaponry. Just sets things the fuck on fire. Shit versus armour or at range, shitty damage, absolutely terrifying.
    S - Sonic weaponry. An oddity, this has garbage range, mediocre damage and only medium penetrative power but causes nausea and deafness in targets, making for an excellent non-lethal crowd control option.
    C - Cold weaponry. Another oddity, this is unaffected by armour but only causes damage by freezing people over and forcing them to not move. Can be lethal, but can also be used as an effective crowd control weapon.
    E - Electricity weaponry. A final oddity, this is essentially controlled arcs of lightning. Short range and next to no penetrative power, but arcs from target to target, ripping through unarmoured crowds with impunity.
    K - Kinetic. Does everything, but not necessarily at once. Also has limited ammo, whereas the others can use Zero Point Energy to essentially fire forever.

Style letters are defined below:
    R - Repeater. A rotary-style weapon designed with high RoF and medium accuracy.
    S - Sniper. A single shot weapon with bolt action or smei-automatic rate of rife and very high range and accuracy.
    B - Burst. Essentially a shotgun, with multiple shots per trigger pull, inherent spread and very high range dropoff.
    L - Line. Fires a single continuous beam, with high damage, penetration, range and accuracy. Downsides involve it only being a single shot weapon, and the damage needing time to mount up.
    G - Grenade. A catch-all for high explosive launchers, with low RoF, medium-high range, and AoE on hit.
    M - Melee. Exactly what it says on the tin.
    D - Defensive. Shields and the like

Size numbers are as below:
    1 - Pistol scale. Small knives and all pistols from holdouts to chunky revolvers.
    2 - SMG/Carbine scale. Machetes, uzis, MP5s and similar fit here.
    3 - Assault Rifle/Short Sniper scale. Swords, shields, AR-15s, M4s, AK47s, and all Designated Marksman Rifles fit here.
    4 - SAW/Sniper scale. Mauls, Dragunovs, LMGs, RPGs, essentially the top end of man portable weaponry.
    5 - Vehicle mounted scale. At this point, it needs to be fitted on a drone or similar vehicle.

Armour:

Armour uses the notation [Weight][Role][Version Number]

Weight classes:
    S - Superlight. Essentially nonexistent, with a focus on high mobility over any form of protection
    L - Light. More armour than superlight but more maneuverable than medium.
    M - Medium. Boring and balanced.
    H - Heavy. You are huge, but you ain't gonna be winning sprints.
    X - Superheavy. Essentially a walking tank.

Roles:
    S - Stealth. Cloaking capabilities and high maneuverability.
    I - Infantry. Reasonably balanced.
    C - Commander. Improved radio range.
    A - Artillery. Increased lifting capacity. Often used to mule goods.
    U - Support. Contains interesting tools and similar.
    R - Reconnaissance. High sensory capacity.



SS13 - Essentially a power armour ninja suit.
SR8 - A suit of armour with increased climbing and similar capabilities and vastly increased visual sensors

HC3 - A field commander's suit, designed to stop in one place and relay orders
XA3 - Human heavy weapons platform.
