Cased [1] Urban Technology Drug: Rubber Militech Taser Safety Round [8]
Notes:
[1] The old style ammunition common in all firearms before 2005. Uses a brass or plastic cased chemical accelerant for the round.

Gas:
Damage is as gas used.
Area is 2m circle from where the shell hits.

Roll to hit for each target in the area to see if it is hit, (don't forget WA). Must be mounted stationary or on tripod like a claymore.

Motion Restraints:

Biotech-Askari Motion Restraint Bomb $60 per bomb, $25 for release canister
A fine gossamer web polymer material dispensed by a hand thrown bomb. It allows slow steady movement but prevents rapid or violent movements.
1m radius effect. Once tangled only REF (+ Dodge & Escape) +1D10 at 25 or BOD (+ Strength Feat) + 1D10 at 30 can get you out. Release catalyst is in 10 squirt canister, (weighs 0.2kg), and gets you out on 1 min else you have to wait 30+1D10 mins for chemical breakdown. 
Exotic   0   Pocket  Poor   Special   1   1   UR   Throw  0.8kg
Arasaka Restraint Caster. $200 eb
This oversize pistol fires a capsule of reactive material which , upon contact with the atmosphere, assumes a semi solid form and spreads into long tendrils of polymer. These are incredibly strong and wrap around anything they come into contact with. Anything caught in these strands is effectively immobilized.
Once hit, (any location), the polymer spreads and immobilizes the victim. Escape is by 3 methods.
  1. Wait 15+1D10 minutes for chemical breakdown
  2. Use solvent spray, ($10 for 10 uses, weight 0.2kg fits in pocket).
  3. Roll BOD, (or STR of Linear frame etc.) + Strength Feat, (if can) + 1D10 against 25 or more to escape.
Polymer shells cost 60 eb for 20. 
Pistol   -1  Jacket  Poor   Tangle,(15mm bore)  4    1   ST   25m   1.2kg
Pursuit Security Inc. Webgun $250
This is a single shot weapon with a rifle like configuration. The "Webber" has a conical muzzle with 4 blast directing nozzles which fire 4 elliptical weights. Between these weights is a spiderweb like nylon net which is pulled open by the trajectories of the weights. This snares the target in a fast moving, hard pulling tangle.
Web is large enough to cover any one person. Victim must roll both of: to escape. However if the victim has a knife on them they can cut through on a roll of 2 or more on 1D10 in about 1D6-1 mins.
Failure of both rolls results in capture. Failure of one roll means the target will be free in 10-(BOD or REF) mins, (dependent on which roll they passed).
Once captured the victim cannot move and is counted as having + REF and counts as prone for further attacks.
Nets cost $2 each but can be reused. Firing charges cost $1 each.

For $100 carbosteel wire and a taser system can be used. This has the same effects as above but with an added taser effect.

Taser net can be reused but need + hour recharge from a wall socket OR a new battery costing $5. Roll taser effect after rolling to see if victim is caught. Even if victim is not caught, still apply taser effect. Firing charges still cost $1. 
Rifle  +1   Not  Common  Net   1    1    ST   30m    4kg

Electronic Weapons

Technotronica M40 Pulse Rifle. $3500.
This stubby rifle like weapon uses liquid metal storage cells to power a multiband electromagnetic beam propagation system. In short an EMP rifle. Its effects are devastating on humans and any unshielded electronics, (it is shielded itself). At close range it can fry electronics and disable people for hours!!
It is a tight beam weapon effecting only 1 person or object per shot, (body location fairly irrelevant), but it fires in a corridor so people standing in a line behind the target are effected. Due to it's charging cycle it can only fire every other turn. 
Effects:


Range:			Effect:
Touching to 1m:        	50% chance of permanently destroying 
			shielded electronics, 	
			100% chance if unshielded.  
			People must make a death save at -3.  
			If they pass they are 
			unconscious for 2D6x30 minutes.

1m to 12m:   		Unshielded electronics disabled, (can be repaired), 
			(shielded stuff is O.K. 95% of the time 
			from here on out).  
			People must pass a stun save at -5 or pass 
			out for 1D6 x 10 minutes.

12m to 25m:  		Unshielded electronics disabled for 1d6/2 
			hours and people must pass stun save at -3 or 
			pass out for 2D6 minutes.

25m to 50m:  		Unshielded electronics have 70% chance of 
			being off line for 2D10 minutes.  People must 
			make a stun save at -1 or pass out for 1D6 minutes.

50m to 100m: 		Unshielded electronics have 30% chance of 
			being off for 1D10 turns and people must pass 
			stun save of be out for 1D6 combat turns.
Notes:
[1]. Electronics includes Cyberware!
[2]. Passed stun saves mean you are groggy, (-2 to all stats), for 1 combat turn.
