The Heavy Plasma gun takes the concept of plasma weapons to the very extreme. On full power, a Heavy Plasma gun is a nearly unstoppable force, and is often overkill. The lower power setting is still a very effective weapon, and doesn't require the recharge needed for full power.
A Heavy Plasma gun uses the same type of superheated gas as its smaller relatives, but the size of the projectile is considerably larger. Impact results in a burst of plasma that damages all nearby, so be careful when using this weapon when targets are near friendly units. Above all, don't be on the receiving end of this weapon.
