OOC:C.M.'s arms reference thread

[OOC:not, this is NOT a store......just making it easyer for people like Calarca or Iansisle to see what i'm sending 'gainst them.


Air-to-ground ordnance:

Hailstone MkII bomb
800lbs of TNT, with a time-delay fuse.Any questions? :P
The fuse's length is set before the mission, and it's lit (it's an old-school fuse ;) ) at the moment of dropping.Not particularly sophisticated, but reliable, and nobody would choose to have 800lbs of TNT to explode on top of them :P .

Firerain MkI incendiary bomb
A cannister of Greek fire (y'know, kindof like Napalm 'cept they used it back in the XIIth century) weighing 400lbs and shattering on impact, ideal for incinerating infantry.

Jinden Aerial Rocket MkI
Originally designed as an air-to-air weapon, but found more usefull (or will be once it starts being used) as an anti-personnel weapon, this fairly small rocket moves at 1050 kph (about 290m/s) and detonates 250ft (75m) from point of launch and explodes into a shower of shrapnel capable of ripping a fighter apart or decimating an infantry squad (or even up to a platoon if they stick close enough together).

Jinden Armour-Pierceing Rocket MkIV
Originally designed as an anti-ship weapon but to small to really affect a ship, will discover itself a (probably succesfull) career as an anti-tank close-support weapon.

Infantry arms:

http://world.guns.ru/rifle/smle1long.jpg
Lee-Enfield MkI
The original "long" Lee-Enfield the SMLE replaced, it's C.M's standard infantry rifle :oops: .

http://www.cliveden.org/bayonet.jpg
13in. Triangular Bayonet
Fits on to the LEMkI.Maï infantry also carry a 2 1/2 foot curved sword, a 14in. Kukri and an 8in. knife (the latter in ankle sheath).Needless to say, their hand-to-hand training is superb.

still incomplete, but now you probably have an idea of what i do in school when i should be learning German(no offense to anybody who speaks it) or doing sports ;) ]
