This is a weapon idea i made that i think is really cool:

Weapon type: Liquid Crystal Cannon

Ammunition: A large High tech looking container that fits on the bottom of the gun, it contains mainly Liquid crystal Formula but also has a charged energy unit built into it

Firing modes: There is no direct firing modes as such but this changes the amount of LCF [liquid crystal formula] going to the barrel of the gun

Secondary fire: This alters the Charge of energy flowing to the barrel, all will be explained

Explination: The liquid crystal Formula is a unique substance that can be we have only just begun to understand, When a charge is applied to the LCF is forms solid crystals, The two main factors here are the amount of LCF and the Charge appiled. If more LCF is applied then larger Crystals will be formed, if More charge is applied then the crystals will become harder, This allows the gun to fill many roles, smaller crystals could be fired at a very high rate of fire and could fill in for an smg, medium sized Crystals could fill in for rifles and larger crystals could fill in for anti-tank devices.

The Hardness of the crystal will alter what the crystal will do on impact, crystals will little charge will basically splat as they revert back to LCF on impact, they will have little to none armour piercing capibilitys making them seem rather useless, but the LCF is high Corrosive meaning that the target can be burned away by the formula. larger crystals here could completley cover an area in corrosive sludge. When a standard amount of charged in applied The crystals will gain enough Hardness to stay solid and keep their shape meaning that they will a lot like bullets, depending on their size of course, then when a large amount of charge is applied that crystals will become so hard that they will shatter on impact, making them deadly fragmentation devices, depending to the size again.

Primary fire: Fires a crystal/crystals in your current settings

The weapon itself is large and very high tech looking, the barrel is very large and the crystal is formed in the middle of it, as you changed you change the settings you will be able to see your crystal changing size

There is a limited rate at which the LCF can be delivered to the barrel meaning that you can fire small crystals at a very high rate but not larger crystals, meaning that you can't spam large crystals.

I couldn't think of any names so i'm a willing to change the name from Synergy if you think of anything good :)

Hmm, an...interesting idea to say the least.

Explain how the changing of the crystal settings works (from a hardware i.e. clicking, point of veiw).

If you wanted to change the energy you would hold secondary fire down and a little bar would appear on the screen showing the energy amount the longer you hold it down for the more it increases, if the guns was built to how it is in my mind then you would see the two bars on the side of the gun for energy level and LCF level, the same applies for the LCF level you would hold down your change firing mode button to change the level of LCF entering the Crystalization chamber [barrel] of the gun.

Beautiful,this gun is awesome!

I'd love to see this gun in BW.You really should stick this in the donations category.

hmm actually I'd wait untill we get the opinion of the other runestorm members,but you certainly got my attention.

Holy cripes on toast. A good AND completely orignal (Or so I think) weapon idea. PLEASE SPONSOR THIS! Either a giant, heavy frag round cannon or an acid launcher? That's just plain VICOUS!

My weapon idea, the Ion-Pulse Cannon, seems almost TOO death-ray next to this. I like the look of this. It actually seems like what the Bio-Rifle would be like if Runestorm modified it.

All my kudos are belong to this idea!

The weapon can also fire short range spurts of LFC by having whatever amount of LCF you want and no charge, this is very short range but would be more effective than a shotgun if used correctly, remember that if you have a lot of LCF in the barrel then your going to get more coming out the front, crystalised or not, thats your choice ;)

Are the shots affected by gravity? i.e. can you aim the gun upwards slightly and fire to hit a target further away? Because if there are solid crystals they're probably going to arc downwards slightly, unless the launching force is high enough for them to stay airborne.

depends on the size of the crystal, smal crystals are going to act like bullets with no arc, while large crystals are going to have a slight arc due to their weight.

How low/high is the recoil/kickback from this weapon?

Post subject:  DDJ517-XGU Liquid crystal Cannon "Synergy"
again, it depends on the crystal size, small crystals almost no recoil, same as a fifty-9, large crystals, large recoil, about the same as a g5

How would you guys like this weapon if it was mounted, like a turret, and was dual tri-barreled (as in 2 sets of 3 barrels, one set per side of the turret)? And how about it having the large crystals that do good fragmenting once it hits an object?

Well, I'm not joking about this weapon. I started making a gun like what I just said about 1 month ago (and I pretty much finished it). I never realized I had actually gotten my idea from this weapon idea (but I also was basing my gun on the Bio Rifle, UT3 Minigun, and UT3 Rocket Launcher, plus being mounted). You can see obviously what influenced from the Bio Rifle and Minigun, but barely on the RL.

nah, i prefer the idea of variable crystals sizes and behavour patterns, this weapons is supposed to be able to take multiple roles, anything really but at the expense of the weapons weight [very heavy]

Variable crystals should be easy to do, a simple multiplication code would suffice.

I love this idea by the way, hopefully someone in the community will pick it up and help it see the daylight.

Unfortunately that won't be me. I already designed me a weapon somewhat similar to this one, but I won't move it away from a turret only gun.
