Moran Arms 'Lawman' Officer Pistol
Type: Double Action
Chamber: .357 magnum
Weight unloaded: differs with models and barrel lenghts
Length: differs with models and barrel lenghts
Barrel length: 4 to 6 inches
Capacity: 7 rounds

The Lawman is a standard-looking double action revolver, with improved accuracy over other double action revolvers. With the one exception of a seven bullet barrel, as opposed to the normal six, the Lawman is a standard double action revolver. It has been pressed into service by the Republican Army as an officer and NCO sidearm, as well as the main sidearm for Police officers and patrolmen.

G2 Nadrang Rifle
Caliber: .30-06 (7.62x63 mm)
Action: Gas operated, rotating bolt
Overall length: 1103 mm
Barrel length: 610 mm
Weight: 4.32 kg
Feeding: non-detachable, clip-fed only magazine, 8 rounds

The standard infantry arm during the Chaos Years, the G2 Nadrang is now obselete, yet is still the main arm of the Republican Army. It is slowly being replaced by the Ravot-12, but the G2's reliability and durability have made people slow to accept other, better designs.

Ravot-12
Caliber: 5.56mm NATO
Action: Gas operated, rotating bolt
Overall length: 720 mm
Barrel length: 460 mm
Weight: 2.8 kg empty, 3.63 kg with loaded 30 rounds magazine & sling
Magazine capacity: 20 or 30 rounds standard
Rate of fire: 750 - 900 rounds per minute

The Ravot-12 is the new weapon being phased in by the Republican Army to replace the aging Nadrang rifles. Despite the superiority of the Ravot-12, the G2-Nadrang is slowly being replaced because of attachement to the durable and reliable - but obsolete - Nadrang.

FN-3 Special Forces Assault Rifle
Caliber: 5.56 NATO
Standard Length: 800mm
Weight: 3.5kg Empty
ROF: 600 rounds per minute
Magazine: 45 rounds standard

Currently used by the Marines, Pathfinders, and JOATS, the FN-3 Rifle can be added with attachements for many situations and needs, from sniping to full automatic fire. Many military personell try to join the Special Forces just to use this rifle, but most look on it with scorn, and stick to the Nadrang.

Moran Arms Sniper Rifle - LRS-1
Caliber: .415 Moranam
Operation: manually operated rotating bolt action
Barrel: 762 mm (30")
Weight: 12.3 kg
Length: 1400 mm (stock retracted), 1220 mm (stock collapsed)
Feed Mechanism: 6 rounds detachable box magazine

The first (and so far only) sniper rifle in production in the Republic of Lanquassia, and so far unique to Lanquassia. This weapon has a very short production run, with only a few dozen each year, due to the lack of machinery able to create the unique ammunition for this weapon. The LRS-1 is capable to deliver sub-MOA accuracy at the ranges of up to 2500 yards (2270 meters), and within 2200 years has more energy than the standard .50 ball round. Only a few companies of Pathfinders and JOATS have this weapon.

Moran Vorat-4 MMG
caliber 5.56mm NATO
V0 915
weigth 7.6 on bipod, w/o magazine or belt
Length 1020 (780 w. folded stock)
Length of barrel 460
feeding belt (150 rnds) or M16 or Galil type box magazines
rate of fire selectable: 700-850 or 850-1000

A medium machine gun, this is one of the two Heavy Weapons used by the Rpublican Army and the Special Forces.

M-13a LAW - Light Antitank Weapon
Caliber: 84mm
Type: recoilless launch (+ rocket booster on some types of ammunition)
Overall length: 1140 mm
Weight: 7.5 kg
Effective range: 150 meters against tanks, 700 meters against stationary targets, 1000 meters against stationary targets with rocket-boosted ammunition
Armour penetration: 500+ mm

The other of the two Heavy Weapons used by the RA, the M-13a Light Antitank Weapon is supposed to be a one-shot anti-armor weapon, but a unique design quirk allows certain types of ammunition, mostly light dumbfire rockets, to be loaded into the weapon. This, however, takes time, and usually isn't done during battle - but it also cuts down the cost of the weapon.

There are various rockets and grenades the M-13a is able to use, but the most common one are shaped explosive grenades.

And thats pretty much all I have. I'm looking about the 'net for some cheapish, late WWII/Korean multiroles, I have a fleet of DC-3s somewhere in my nation, a largish Merchant Marine, and a grand total of one military naval vessel.

Suggestions, comments, concerns?
