It is what they call it. Stop allying Human terminology to aliens http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Well, it could create a reverb that could be interpreted as a "pulse" when it's fired.

Stop mistranslating Pandoran terms into English then Atrocities. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

maybe it uses pulses of <whatever> tu propell the DU slugs. or maybe it fires short bursts the pandorans call 'pulses'

i think they look cool.

Re: Pandoran Firearms
 
i dont know what tu is. when i posted that, i had typed out either the word "whatever" or the word "something" and put it between carrots. well, not carrots, but whatever the 90 degree rotated carrot - bracket things are. you know, < and >

I hesitate to type them, lest they *** up the post again. anyway, somehow what i typed was translated into "tu"

bizzare UBB code whackyness.

I hope you're going to scale these pics down to component size and submit them to the image mod...

They look awesome, though the handgun is maybe not a real military weapon. I can't imagine an army carrying Pulse Pistols instead of Pulse Assault Rifles. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
Maybe the Pulse Pistol should be left for Peace Keeping troops.
I love the Pulse Rifle. It looks a little bit like the Tavor Assault Rifle. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Has everyone forgotten the legendary Marine Pulse Rifle from Aliens? That was a slugthrower, you know. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Very nice, Atrocities. I've never really been a fan of that particular type of pistol design, but those guns do look quite cool. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

All the more reason to love the Pandoran Shipset. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

To prove my point, between the '----'s, I'll put a lengthy description of the causes of inflation...but it's all be within the < > things.

<Inflation> <may> <be> <caused> <by> <an> <increase> <in> <the> <quantity> <of> <money> <in> <circulation.> <This> <has> <been> <seen> <most> <graphically> <when> <governments> <have> <financed> <spending> <in> <a> <crisis> <by> <printing> <money,> <leading> <to> <hyperinflation> <where> <prices> <rise> <at> <extremely> <high> <rates.> <Another> <cause> <of> <inflation> <occurs> <when> <there> <are> <many> <people> <and> <organizations> <with> <enough> <market> <power> <to> <increase> <their> <prices.>

Neat, huh? If anyone wants to learn about economics, just click 'quote' http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

P.S: I think when you said 'tu', you were misspelling 'to'. So, what you wrote should have said:
"maybe it uses pulses of < whatever > to propell the DU slugs"

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Yeah, this has been known for awhile. It is do to the angle brackets being used in HTML code, so if the text inside the brackets are not proper HTML tags then the forum won't display them. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

The DUP Pistal is mentioned in the chapter "Trax" of the story Once Upon The Stars (OUTS).

The DUP Rifle has been mentioned many times throught the story. I thought it would be cool to have pictures to go along with them.

I have several other designes that I have not shown for other firearms. Making things is kinda fun, but pointless really unless you have a purpose for them.

Thanks for comments guys, and its my story and I can say they shoot whatever I want to say they shoot. (And for the record, my Father is a gun smith, and you should see what he can do. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif )

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Hey, where's your Heavy Infantry Gun?
You should have something like an squad anti-tank weapon and an squad light machinegun.... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Pandoran Firearms
 
Atrocities, do you have any images of firearms that resemble Star Wars bLasters ? My Version of the Image Mod has phasers but no bLasters.

Re: Pandoran Firearms
 
No, but I can try and make a couple.
