cannon, is a bulky police/paramilitary weapon used for crowd control. Often
mounted on vehicles, robots, remote sentry units or on a tripod, it is an area
effect weapon that can hit all beings within a cone out to its extreme range.
It has four settings: Irritation, Stun Level 1, Stun Level 2 and Stun Level 3.
Each setting has a different power consumption rate and damage effects.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; line-height: normal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'">The Irritation setting is probably the
most common used and normally non-lethal. It broadcasts a loud, disruptive
sound within a 90 degree cone in front of the device with the purpose of trying
to coax beings to leave the area. Targets within point black and short range
suffer a -20 percent modifier to all skill and status checks. Targets within
medium range suffer a -15 percent penalty; -10 at long range and -5 at extreme
range. It hits automatically and consumes 2 SEU per minute of continuous use.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; line-height: normal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'">Stun Setting 1 acts like a sonic
stunner, except it affects targets within a 5-meter-wide cone in front of the
device. Use the burst-fire modifiers for determining the chance to hit. Targets
must make a successful Stamina check to avoid being stunned. It uses 5 SEU per
shot.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; line-height: normal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'">Stun Setting 2 acts like a sonic
stunner but also causes physical damage to targets within a 5 meter wide cone
in addition to a stunning effect. Note, a target gets to make a current Stamina
check after taking the sonic damage. At point blank and short range, it causes
2d10 of damage; 1d10 damage at medium and long range; but only the stunning
effect at extreme range. This setting uses 10 SEU per shot.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 6pt; line-height: normal"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif'">Stun 3 causes more damage in addition
to a stunning effect. At point blank and short range, targets take 4d10 damage,
at medium range, 3d10 damage, at long range, 2d10, and 1d10 at extreme range.
This setting uses 15 SEU per shot. </span></p>
