UN-Official Description

For purpose of capturing the aliens human mind created something sophisticated. Although normal 'taser' weapons couldn't do a scratch, scientist created something with more 'kick'. In electroweapons family were two main disadvantages - short range and low electricity output. In this type of weapon scientists approached the subject on other way. WarTazer looks like ordinary pistol with large magazine (which contains up to five bolts). Each bolt is, in fact, miniaturized machine, which, when flying to target, opens it's hooks, and digs itsef into target. Then to work comes engine INSIDE the bolt, which products enormous energy... for 0,5 second. From WarTazer we can shoot about on 40 meters.

Battle Implications

This weapon is created for disabling mechanical and organic enemies. Completely new design is very expensive and difficult in reloading, but that's the best, what can be done. Good thing is that five bolts in magazine are sufficient to disable even the toughest aliens. The main drawback is that WarTazer is very heavy weapon and even ammo clips are pretty large. Soldier which shoots this kind of weapon must have great strength and iron will.
