View source for Damage/plasma

Plasma damage is dealt with polymer projectiles filled with plasma or short range bursts of plasma streams. The high-temperature, high-charge plasma burns all; even advanced armor. Quite effective against humans in Kevlar Vests and aliens in weak armor. Diffused very well by any medium and advanced armor, but burns them quickly, nevertheless. Plasma weapons usually have high damage, short to middle range and mediocre accuracy.
