Plasma rifles provide a rare and unique innovation to combat. The weapon utilizes a box magazine containing exactly one gram of solid plasma, underneath a mechanism that ‘shaves’ the sheet into one milligram filaments. The filament comes to rest inside of a solid copper chamber, lined externally in wires. When the trigger is squeezed, a circuit is completed that releases a brief charge into the electromagnets, which forcibly ionizes, and spaghettifies the solid plasma into a quarter-mile long tube of semi-gaseous state plasma. This turns the tool into a deathly precise weapon that pierces hulls without doing too much damage, and most importantly breaching major organs. The Standard Plasma Rifle is best suited as a sniper weapon, as it requires precise shots to a person’s heart or brain in order to make effective kills. More advanced variants of the weapon might include a select-discharge system that can shave off filaments in 10, 25, and 50 milligrams, to greatly increase the lethal area, making it more useful as a frontline rifle.
