Does anyone have the stats for Andromadas Forcelance?

[Jacqual]

I was wondering if anyone ever stated the force lance for both it's ranged capabilities and as a melee weapon. I was looking for CT stats in particular. I was also wondering if anyone thought the skill for the weapon should cover both melee and ranged attacks with the weapon. I was considering the weapon as a weapon issued to Imperial Navy Officer's as the ranking sidearm. If anyone has the stats can you post them please.

I've never even heard of a Force-lance.

I've never watched Andromeda much but I have heard of the Force Lance.

Sounds way over the top for CT, beyond the game's scope in TL and power for such a device imo. YMMV and in YTU is your call.

Off hand and top of my head I'd say...

Melee Weapon : Cudgel -1 or may stun : Skill 2+ allows use as Staff (extended) to parry and attack as Cudgel +1 or may stun

Ranged Weapon : Laser Pistol : 3 shots as Laser Carbine -1 for 3D

Grenade : Set to overload it will deal the full remaining charge of laser shots in a single area effect attack. One square is dealt the full total damage, the surrounding squares are half the damage.

So, it would require both Cudgel skill and Laser Pistol skill to wield effectively imo. And Cudgel skill 2+ to utilize the Staff feature.

EDIT - Oh yeah...

TL15, cost Cr2500, replacement rechargeable powercells Cr150 each, total weight 1.5kg

The Effectors, Grapple, and Stationary Automated functions are too far beyond the scope of CT to model without unbalancing the game in the OTU. Make it up if the weapon is alien ultratech.
