Post subject:  CWI - ZX-T9 All-Purpose Hydraulic Needle Cannon

DESCRIPTION:
A Hydraulic Needle Cannon, capable of multiple functions. This weapon uses no ammunition, but it is far much heavier than most other weapons in the BW arsenal.

Primary Fire:
Launches a wire-towed needle in front of the wielder when pressed once. Once the needle latches onto a target, pressing the Primary Fire again will cause the wire to retract, pulling either the wielder or the target closer to each other. The Primary Fire must be held to fully retract the wire.

Secondary Fire:
Launches a wire-towed needle behind the wielder when pressed once. Pressing twice will retract the wire immediately. This is usually used in-conjunction with the Primary Fire to accomplish certain tasks:

-To make a wire-line from one place to another to cross a huge obstacle (such as a gap or barrier).

-To tow-in vehicles (by attaching one needle to the vehicle and the other to a stable area, such as the ground).

Reload:
Automatically retracts any wire that has been launched.

Fire-Mode:
Runs a high-voltage current through the front tow-wire and needle - capable of shocking enemies and immobilizing vehicles. The HNC can only fire short bursts of this current and must be recharged after each activation, so it must be used only when necessary.

Special Fire:
Fires a melee-ranged, hydro-accelerated spike that can penetrate armor and puncture vital organs, immediately terminating the victim. It takes quite a while for the spike to reset, so it must be used sparingly. It can also be used to elevate the wielder by firing the spike at the ground (Hydro-Spike Jumping).

Iron Sights:
Activates an analog scope. Has limited distance. It also has a rear-view finder, great for targeting objects behind you.

TAKE NOTE:
The Tow-Wire can be cut by bladed weapons, so be careful about deploying it when blade-wielding enemies are nearby.

Deploy-Drop Special:
In the case that the wielder either: a) get killed or b) drops the weapon - while both needles are latched onto something, the HNC will still hold until somebody: a) destroys the weapon by cutting the wires or b) picks the HNC up and reloads it back to its default state (much like how deployed Machine Guns can be retrieved). This can be used to strategically leave the HNC to its devices so that the original user can wield other weapons or move away unharmed.
