Star Trek Assault Phaser

::STAR TREK::

ASSAULT PHASER

Big, black and intimidating, the Assault Phaser was first seen in Star Trek V: The Final Frontier and returned in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. Made to look like an actual gun instead of a flouncy plastic toy, this beast will make anyone you point it at wish they brought their brown pants.

Carried over from my New Vegas and Fallout 3 editions, the Commonwealth Assault Phaser comes with custom sounds, both equipping and firing. While unchanged in appearance (save for some minor texture tweaking) the phaser deals a base 75 in both physical and energy damage (reason being that the phaser is shown to actually CAUSE physical trauma, namely shooting off limbs) and, while it uses power packs as its previous incarnations have, it can now be modded to use fusion cells, at a slight cost in damage and a decrease in magazine size. The phaser's firing sound will also change when in its converted form, and the lights on the back change to provide a visual cue for the change as well.

The phaser can be found in the Institute's Advanced Systems lab, at the firing range. From 1. 1 onward a second phaser can be found in Virgil's lab in the Glowing Sea, in case you wants 2 or if you've done things that mean the first one is unobtainable.

Future Plans

============

> Add more modifications. I intend to make it so you can turn the phaser into the assassin's rifle that went unused in The Undiscovered Country, this means a scope, stock and barrel will be able to be attached, on top of the fusion conversion.

> Custom animations. Right now the phaser uses the 10mm pistol animations, so it will be affected by any mods that replace the 10mm animations.

> A separate, weaker variant used by Institute Synths, based off this design.
