Equipment

*"Hmm... my favourite weapon? Well that all depends on what kind of mission I'm going on. If I'm not expecting to get up close, or engaging honourless foes, my first rail lance is always good. But up close.. I like to use the plasma whip or plasma blade. Although I do have my eye on some of those new techno-wiz weapons the Wayfinders are working on. I hear they're working on a weapon that really puts the hurt on the Infernals!"*

The Shemarrians have a variety of weapons and equipment at their disposal. Some tribes have developed unique weapons used by them only, and others they share with the other tribes. From the original rail guns developed by A.R.C.H.I.E. 3, to warhammers with built in ion blasters and techno-wizard implants.

## Generic Equipment

Generic equipment are weapons, tools, armour and other devices that available to all tribes, including Fringe tribes that gain status as being part of the Shemarrian Star Nation and part of the Low Council. When equipment is developed that would benefit ALL tribes, or doesn't have tribe specific secrets as part of its construction, the plans are shared and programmed into autofacs, and the Trinity Modules if they are to be part of Rites of Upgrade.
