Heavy Weapons
Quite often, commanders face targets whose defenses resist the effects of pistol or basic weapons, and the situation does not allow for a close up engagement with melee weapons such as a Chainfist. This is when the heavy weapons are called in. These gigantic weapons tend to be the types of devices one would expect to see on a vehicle (and they often are). While each varies with respect to the method of delivery and effectiveness, all are designed to brutally destroy anything they are pointed at.
