The other day I was reading weapon descriptions and on one of them (or several?) it says selectable ammunition?
The scrambler has a charged shot?
Theres a sniper rifle thats a charged shot?
So wheres the solid slug shotgun ammunition??
If theres going to be selectable ammunition then going from regular buckshot shotgun to charged shot solid slug shotgun will be a game changer.
The question I have is what range will the solid slug have in a future? charged shot solid slug shotgun??

Near you??
You do realize that a solid slug from a shotgun can travel over 100m , right??
Unlike a buckshot round that travels 15m.
So say if its 50m then a solid slug can have no problem playing bullet tag. |

Lets see I can purchase sunglasses but in the future theres no such technology?....lol!
I am 52 years old and can run a 1/2 mile to the store and back without being tired but my "super soldier" gets "tired" after running two blocks?..lol!
And I just finished melting down some lead to create some solid slugs for a shotgun but in the future theres no such "high technology"?..lol! |

A slug shotgun is how I imagine the Caldari one will be and since they already have a charged sniper, no I'm not |

Should be a 4 barrel sawed off with four single shots or one charged blast of all 4 slugs, only at sg proficiency 1, and it should fit in the sidearm slot.

The current shotgun fires a spread of plasma out a odd shaped barrel. A single shot would probably need a different barrel, similar to modern slugs need a straight choke.
The Minmatar shotgun, once we have it, should be more conventional and a slug option would be nice.
I would guess the Caldari would be a rail based weapon flinging many small darts instead of single large one like the sniper. Something like project salvo, a cold war idea to make a 2 barreled FN Fal that had 2-3 small bullets end to end in each shell. Idea was it would be easier to get at least one hit at 300 yards if several bullets landed in 5 foot spread. Army decided to go with assault rifle instead. A slug would then just be a rail rifle.
Amarr shotgun will probably be some kind of laser disc ball or maybe a smaller version of arc cannon from Templar One, a lightning gun for people that haven't read the Dust514 novel.
Effective range on buckshot is 30-40m, it travels 8-900m but spreads to much to be effective and loses energy. Crowd 100m behind target may catch some of the pellets resulting in serious injury, 800m impact might not break the skin. |

It would most likely be a caldari varient of a shotgun then. The gallente use blasters which fire uncontained plasma at their target, the caldari use rails, that contain the plasma in a eletromagnetic shell that vanishes upon impact. |
