Combat: Energy Weapon
Attribute: Agility
Field: Military
Hand-held beam and energy weapons are governed by this skill. Energy
weapons are in their own class, because they are not effected by gravity, wind,
or air resistance. Additionally, their mechanisms are significantly different
from conventional firearms, setting them apart. Energy weapons include lasers
and zap guns, but not tasers. Also, this skill does not cover large
vehicle-mounted weapons that use a fire-control computer, such as on a tank,
aircraft, or spacecraft (see Gunnery: Energy).
