Union Blaster - A Reverse-Engineered Zetan Weapon

The Union Blaster is a prototype energy weapon developed by the Wanderer's Union - a nation far south of the Commonwealth, and a major faction in our upcoming quest mod E Pluribus Unum. A hybrid of terrestrial and alien technology, the Blaster accepts standard fusion cells and features a dizzying array of mods that let it play almost any combat role - from a rapid-fire sidearm to heavy artillery.

Where Can I Find One? In the standalone version, you have two ways to acquire a Union Blaster. One can be found on the corpse of a Union operative in front of the Glowing Sea's Sentinel Site. Alternatively, a character with Science! rank 3 can build one using any laser weapon, 12 alien blaster cells, and various components at a chemistry station.
