Fragmentation Weapons(AD)
Fragmentation weapons are a specialized version of railguns, firing larger-caliber bullets with embedded explosive charges which fragment the round the instant it leaves the barrel.
Like railguns, frag weapons have an ammo clip and a separate power source lasting for the life of the ammo, as described below:
Frag Rifle
A frag rifle fires 15mm rounds which explode into hundreds of fragments travelling at relativistic speeds.
The resulting shrapnel(or shrap)affects all characters in a six-meter diameter area, as per grenades. Any character in that area suffers full damage, as for grenades.
