This is a combination short polearm and light electrolaser.
It takes a 20 SEU PowerClip in the handle, and fires
an electro-laser beam at somewhat short range. The
beam causes 4d10 damage and drains 2 SEU (just like the
blast beam of an electrostunner). Unlike a proper
electrostunner, however, the beam cannot be set to stun.
The electro-beam is defeated easily with an active Gauss
Screen or an Anti-Shock Implant.

When used in melee, this weapon is like a long axe half
way between a polearm and a battle axe. It causes 3d10
inertia damage (plus punching score, as normal).

This weapon isn’t that popular and so is seldom found
brand new. It’s often found in a pawn shop or in less high
tech areas of the Frontier. To a fledgeling adventurer,
however, this weapon offers some interesting and versitile
options that should not be ignored. It costs 250 Credits
and weighs just under 2 kilograms. It often comes with a
leather harness worn over the shoulder, with the blade
pointing down.
