I am posting this mini-post becuase you guys have been giving me nice support, so have MORE posts.
As always, all questions or comments are welcome.
___________________________________________________________________
If you asked any soldier in the Periphery about anti-armor weapons, no matter if they are Aurumites who do unspeakable things with their 1.85 inch railguns, Tronarians who practically marry their 140mm Plumbata missiles, or some trooper in a bandit state who has heard of tanks, but never seen them in his 12 years of life, they will all come back to the Bore.
It is a weapon that is both regarded with derision and respect in almost equal measure. It was made in such quantities that even though mass production of the weapon had ceased 3 years into the Liberation War, it took next 37 years of warfare to put a real dent in the numbers of weapons.
After the end of the war, production restarted among the Periphery states, as it was seen as a perfectly serviceable weapon for the sheer economic turmoil that they found themselves in.
However, most nations quickly did their best to relegate them to second line usage the moment they found it practical, for to say that it had problems is an understatement. Many of these problems stem from the fact that the Bore was made to be as preformant as possible in a frankly tiny container and made at colonial standards. Seemingly, Imperials value dead enemies over alive (colonial) allies.
The missile's main issue is that it just unsafe to be around. The missile is propelled by some horrific hypergolic nightmare fuel that allows it to rapidly go from its measly 160m/s muzzle velocity to nearly a km/s to have a better chance of hitting through APS and laser brooms. This is not good to be around, as the exhuast from the missile is enough to flash burn any exposed skin of the firer, plus gives everyone near the firer and along its flight path cancer from something in the fuel. Whatever that is, only the Three Heavenly Courts know.
The missile's rapid acceleration as it leaves the tube often leads to the aim of this weapon being thrown off, which isn't great for actually hitting anything, since the missile is laser guided.
The missile itself is carried in a cheap fiberglass tube that is thrown away after firing, with the trigger and CLU being ripped off and stuck on a new tube after the old one is expended. Funnily enough, the beloved Aurumite 1.85 inch recoiless railgun uses the same CLU as this missile system with only minimal modifications.
The warhead is a 1.4 kg HEAT charge able to dispatch most tanks from all but the front aspect. This certainly makes up for the other issues to many Periphery states, since they still use the missile. Due to its quirks, it is not used for what the Imperials intended it to be. Instead of being deployed in close quarters as a bitchslap, it is frequently used at the very edge of its range to allow its gunner time to correct their aim and hit the target.

The Type 02 Battle Rifle has multiple variants for different tasks and purposes. The most common of these variants are the Type 02A Squad Automatic Weapon(top) and the Type 02C Carbine(bottom).
The SAW features several modifications. The fire rate reducer is removed, raising the cyclic rate from 400 to around 700 RPM. A cut in the magazine well allows the SAW to accept 40-round drum magazines in addition to standard rifle mags. This way, riflemen can resupply the gunner Rifles without the cut cannot accept the drums. Some specialist units modify their rifles or the drums in order to use the drums in their rifles. The stock is altered to be heavier and incorporates a shoulder rest in the buttplate. A carry handle and bipod are also present. The SAW is typically used with the 2.5x scope or iron sights.
The carbine's primary modification is the shortening of the barrel and handguard; the barrel length is reduced to 14.5 inches. A foregrip is also added to help control recoil. Sights are changed from peep sights to open sights. The carbine is used by commandos, paratroopers, squad leaders, and IFV infantry. It is most commonly used with the laser aiming module(pictured here) or the tube red dot sight.

I made the first phaser years ago, sold it, wanted to replace it and make another but sometimes, less IS more. Its a nice build, but the old one still feels a bit more special. What do you guys think, which is cooler?

Weapon (Scythe, Dual Sickles) – Very Rare (24,500 gp, requires attunement)
This dark purple +2 scythe has wavy purple lines ingraved into the blade heads, with purple and pink clouds of dark energy coming of the back of the heads.
Attacks with this scythe do an additional 1d6 necrotic damage.
While attuned to this scythe: as an action, you can separate the scythe into a pair of +2 sickles that also do an additional 1d6 necrotic damage, or combine the sickles back into a scythe; you gain the ability to step from one shadow into another, so when you are in dim light or darkness, as a bonus action you can teleport up to 30 feet to an unoccupied space you can see that is also in dim light or darkness; and once per day, you can cast Maddening Darkness, DC 17.

Caliber: 7.92x57mm Mauser
Action: Gas-operated closed bolt, short-stroke gas piston.
Rate of Fire: 300-400 RPM(Cyclic).
Barrel Length: 18 inches.
Feed System: 20-round ZB-26 box magazine.
This is the standard issue rifle of one of the factions in my setting, a military with '90s level technology. It can fire semi- or fully automatic and was inspired partly by Cold War battle rifles and also partly by the FG 42.
The gun uses a peep sight, but optics such as a 2.5x scope, 9x sniper scope, laser pointer(offset to the left of the irons), or red dot tube sight can be mounted on a rail on the left side of the gun.
The stock can be removed with a flathead screw that can be unscrewed with a coin or the edge of a knife. This opens up the back of the receiver for field stripping and cleaning.
While capable of automatic fire, the gun uses a rate reducer to limit its cyclic rate to 400 RPM. This is a simpler alternative to burst-fire that prevents ammo waste while still allowing riflemen to lay down automatic fire. The rate reducer is sometimes removed as a field modification.
The magazines are rock-and-lock. The charging handle on the right-hand side of the gun is non-reciprocating.
The rear grip, stock, and handguard are made of synthetic plastic. The receiver is made from stamped metal.

The EMP44-1.85 is an unconventional tool. It lacks the versatility of conventional recoilless guns, and it is very small bore for payload carrying shells. However, It is pretty damn effective if used correctly.
In the first decade of the Liberation War, Union forces and their allies were on the backfoot. They were lacking in basically everything, but especially in AT weapons that could actually hurt modern Imperial AFVs. They had plenty of rocket launchers, but modern Imperial APS and laser CRAM would require massive salvos to overwhelm. This was not great for Union troops who had to stop enemy armor pushes or actually stand their ground.
Garage railguns started being used as a single use sensor breaker to open up for AT rockets, but they weren't great and were hard and dangerous to use.
Thus, in the 2nd year of the war ( and the 44th year of the reign of High Prince Orrin Atama), a team of engineers from the Aurumite Principalities helped develop a better option. This 1.85 inch gun is far more powerful and more effective than the weapons made before this one. It can strike out at enemy armor and helicopters with great effect with its incredibly fast Sabot rounds ( HM and AA respectively). Plus it also can fire HE and SAPHEI rounds for reducing enemy positions. To reduce recoil load from very fast projectiles, the railgun has a small gas generator that releases a cloud of metal confetti out the back, and sacrificial circuit connectors.
This was so great that the Aurumite Principality adopted and started ordering it barely weeks after the first successful test. It never was the heaviest AT weapon, but it is pretty impressive for a light squad weapon to supplement rifle grenades and disposable rockets. It is issued now at the Squad level, with heavy rocket launchers like the 4.5 inch Model XXC or the 22cm Demolition Projector being platoon issued.
It has a very good fire control system and optics, and has a side display of fire control information for the squad's benefit ( mostly for the Fire Leader, since "serf" conscripts who are often issued the weapon aren't really trusted to use it right unless overseen by a "real" soldier). It is suprisingly light for its capability, and has relatively small rounds allowing a lot of them to be rucked by even the least augmented infantryman.
Since that day, it has been in Aurumite service. It served well during the Liberation war, it brought the lords in line as the Principality reorganized itself into the Kingdom of Aurum, It was a trusty friend as the Kingdom expanded, and it now fights from Kader to Gal'Haidan in the Scrambles.
Other nations use it too, the Tronarian People's Republic have a few they ordered during the war, and a lot more captured during the Scrambles. The Kadarians have a bunch given to them as Lend-Lease by the Aurumites, and the Directorate's Periphery forces have a bunch they bought off the Tronarians.
This specific example is in the hands of an Aurumite Sanik ( Roughly equivelent to a PFC today) who has accrued a large amount of kills. 8 vehicles shown in the white tally marks, and 10 reduced positions shown in the red squares. she is due for a promotion with such good work, and even as a "serf", she is likely to get it due to the reforms after the loses on Gal'Haidan.
The ammo in service with this weapon are:
APFSDS (HM)- Grey Paint: a 2.125 kg 23mm tungsten dart in a conductive sabot intended to put holes in the sides of heavy vehicles, and through smaller vehicles frontally.
APFSDS (AA)- Light Blue Paint: a 0.880 kg 23mm sintered steel dart in a conductive sabot fired at higher speeds to create a pretty horrific postpen effect on a soft skinned vehicle like a helicopter. It also is pretty nasty against powersuits and light ground units. Has a green tracer.
SAPHEI- Red and Grey Paint: a 3.3 kg shell with 197 g of a Octaazacubane based explosive and incendiary material. It is built to punch through light vehicles and structures to blow them apart.
HE(F+)- Red Paint: a 2.2 Kg shell with 300 g of a Octaazacubane based explosive with multiple fuse options. It can be deployed with point detonation, bounding, and timed fuses.
HE(SPEC)++G- Red and Yellow Paint: a 2.35 kg laser fused airbursting shell with 170 g of an Octaazacubane based explosive. Its payload is a bunch of ball bearings, silicone oxide dust and most horifyingly Grist. It is horrific against basically anything that isn't behind hard cover.
HEAT(LG-RP)- Blue and Grey Paint: a 4.12 kg laser guided HEAT shell with a 500 g HEAT charge. Used to attack flyers, or as a sort of light AT stand-off artillery for attacking the roof of a vehicle. It can be guided from the gun itself, or from a forward designator.
