Tag: cyberpunk 2077 guns

Just like the actual flesh and bone Edgerunners and Cyberpunks in the world of Cyberpunk, ACPAs have a large variety of weapons too.

In Today’s Cyberpunk 2077 Lore video we will be talking more specifically about ACPA weapons and types and styles of weapons that are equippable on ACPAs.

Starting with melee weapons we have the heavy bladed weapons, including axes and swords which can not be wielded effectively by an unpowered human. Some carry these ACPA blades as a mark of distinction or honor, and these blades have the ability to penetrate hard and soft armors. The most common model of bladed weapons is the trooper sword, which sports a classic medieval crusader design. It weighs more than several times that of a normal sword but is still just as sharp as say a good combat knife.

Heavy blunt weapons are very similar but are made at a lower quality production and have less potential for armor piercing as its bladed counter-part weapons.

Large power saws which sport a powered disk or chain saw with very sharp hardened allow teeth and retractable mono swords which are lighter than trooper swords and retractable are also options for ACPAs looking to up their hand to hand and brawly combat potential.
Next, we have machine guns and heavy rifles, which have become the standard primary weapons in ACPA combat in 2020 and can wound a trooper in armor with a well-placed shot.

Most rifles can be enclosed on the arms, or external on the arms or torso as well as being two handed. For external or carrying options, you can also choose to protect it with armored pods or housing units.

The 12.7 mm HMG is a vehicular heavy machine gun, whilst the 13.9mm rifle is a rare rifle based on a .55 caliber anti-tank weapon used between the world wars called the Boys AT-Rifle.

The 14.5 mm KPV is a massive machine gun and one of the most devastating anti-ACPA weapons ever used. Featuring a high ROF, this weapon was the largest machine gun made by the Russians and originally mounted on vehicles.

The 12.7mm Gatling gun is a weapon usually mounted onto AVs and Helicopters whose multi-round penetration can drop most suits of powered armor.

The EMG-85 4mm Railgun has immense power requirements but cannot be matched in its penetration and firepower.

Experimental weapons are typically used in ACPAs due to the nature of their exotic design and functionality, and although Beam weapons are limited to primarily space use, there are a couple that function great on ACPAs.

A painting laser can be used to sport for laser-guided weaponry, which comes in handy for other units on the battlefield. We also have the Meta-Armson “Photon” Assault Cannon, the first combat laser weapon to see field use. Power is provided by a backpack superconductor battery and damage here can be varied by adjusting the amount of power used.

Next, we have scatter-packs which are light weight weapons which use explosive charges to fire an area-filling cone of ammo. These have tremendous recoil and the widths of these munition cones can vary from weapon to weapon. There are also special restrictions on firing scatter packs and firing one in a location not recognized in a militarized zone can lead to a suspension and investigation of the trooper or soldier behind it.

Some examples of scatter packs are the BRP battledress Ripple Flechette pack, which holds clusters of explosive charges in separate tunes which can be fired simultaneously in a 60 degree cone, BFCWA Flechetter Clouds, which fire needle projectiles in a wider cone, and the BIM Minelets volley, which sends a 60 degree cone of mini mines, to damage infantry unfortunate enough to walk over them.

Second to heavy rifles, ACPA- portable cannons are often used on the PA battlefield. The 20mm Rifle is the most common, but options like the 27-30 mm autocannon, the EMG-83 improved railgun, and the 75mm recoilless cannon are options here.

Rockets & missiles are the true heavy arms which are mainly strapped onto Aerial vehicles and helicopters and have extreme destructive capabilities perfect for full military operations. All these weapons require some sort of targeting capabilities. The IFAR is a folding fin aerial rocket and has been in use since the Korean conflict.

The Law 3 is an anti-tank system designed to punch through armor and is one of the more common types of rockets when it comes to power armor. The Light anti-tank guided missile is massively larger.
