==Hand-Held Variants== ===Arc Grenade=== ''For more information, see here: [[Grenades & Explosives#Arc Grenade|Arc Grenade]]'' ===Haywire Mine=== ''For more information, see here: [[Grenades & Explosives#Haywire Mine|Haywire Mine]]'' ===Electrostatic Gauntlet=== [[File:Electro_Gauntlets.PNG|200px|right|thumb|Electrostatic Gauntlet]] {{Topquote|1=[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sg14jNbBb-8 "POWER! UNLIMITED POOOOOWWWWWEEEEEERRRRRRR!!!!!"]|2=[[Star Wars|Emperor Palpatine]]}} Electrostatic Gauntlets are a type of weapon used by Adeptus Mechanicus Electro-Priests. Corpuscarii wear metal apparatus around their wrists that channels tremendous electrostatic potential from dorsal generators. This can be discharged in a cascade of killing lightning. On the tabletop, Electrostatic Gauntlets behave like taser weapons despite not being one. Being S5 instead of S (User+2) and wielded by Corpuscarii only makes this weapons unable to be boosted by either Conqueror or Machine Might...but they can also be used as 12" Assault 3 taser guns. ===Arc Pistol=== [[File:ArcPistol.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Arc Pistol]] A small pistol based on Arc technology and most commonly used by Skitarii Vanguard/Ranger Alphas. Trying to use this to 'charge up' your phone or any other electrical appliances is heavily frowned upon by the Adeptus Mechanicus and the Priesthood of Mars, though any subsequent punishment is just salt on the wound compared to said appliances inevitably exploding. Crunch wise, it is a very nasty little weapon. Essentially it is a 12" S6 AP -1 Pistol that can shred infantry (it wounds guardsmen on 2s) and can annoy vehicles as well. It works really well when paired with its much bigger brother, the Arc Rifle due to the Arc Rifle's rapid fire rule. <gallery> image:ArcPistolModel.png </gallery> {{clear}} ===Voltaic Blaster=== [[File:Voltaic_Blaster.PNG|200px|right|thumb|Voltaic Pistol]] The Voltaic Blaster is a special type of energy weapon (Most likely an Arc weapon given its function) used by Adeptus Mechanicus [[Lectro-Maester]]s. These weapons can [[Awesome|shock a target's animating energies from their body.]] The Lectro-Maesters themselves are a type of Artisan Tech-Priest of the Adeptus Mechanicus who come from the same religious sect as the [[Electro Priest|Electro Priests.]] Thus, they wield an array of technological marvels, such as a generator backpack which generates a powerful voltagheist field which sends out wraiths of energy whenever the wearer is threatened. These bursts of electricity can also act as a shield, prematurely detonating incoming munitions and dissipate energy projectiles. The Voltaic Blaster is one such marvel. There are in fact rules for this weapon, and [[Original character, do not steal|it acts like a pistol version of a Necron Tesla weapon.]] [[Heretek|Makes you think....]]. Speaking of Necrons and considering what Necrons are, perhaps this weapon can permanently kill them by eradicating their mind engrams. <gallery> VoltaicPistolBottom.jpg|<center>Bottom View</center> VoltaicPistolBack.jpg|<center>Back View</center> </gallery> ===Arc Rifle=== [[File:ArcRifle.jpg|200px|right|thumb|Arc Rifle]] A rapid firing Arc Weapon used as a special weapon in Skitarii Vanguard and Ranger squads. The Arc Pistol's bigger brother. This is the gun you need when you want a little bit more range in your lightning cannon. Basically your typical tesla gun in sci-fi....no not <u>''THOSE''</u> [[Tesla#Warhammer 40,000|Tesla weapons.]]. Crunch wise on the tabletop, it is known to possibly be one of the best-looking guns the Skitarii have. It's 24" Rapid Fire, which means it pairs well with its little brother. The Arc Rifle is one of the most common Arc weapons found in the Mechanicum. <gallery> image:ArcRifleModel.png </gallery> {{clear}} ===Arc Lance=== [[File:Arc_Lance.PNG|250px|right|thumb|Arc Lance]] The Arc Lance is a type of Arc Weapon used by the Adeptus Mechanicus. Wielded by [[Secutarii Hoplite]]s, this powerful spear is akin to the Arc Mauls used by their Skitarii Legion counterparts as well as the far larger version wielded by Cerastus Knight Lancers. The arc lance inflicts damage through short range blasts of coruscating energy augmented by an inversion field mounted in the paired Mag-inverter Shield. Thus the weapon is capable of both making a melee and projectile attack. On tabletop, Arc Lance has a shorter range than the Arc Rifle, but compensates by being versatile, since it is a Str +3 melee weapon too. This means that Hoplites are formidable both at range and in close combat. Making the Arc Lance a very flexible weapon.
