Name: Altresian Imperial Short Range model 1 Railgun Code: AI-SRm1 RG Manufacturer: Empire's Armaments Description: The AI-SRm1 RG is a short range Railgun that is used both by combat priests and the light infantry. It fires either extremely heavy or specialized ammo and is effective against armoured targets and infantry. The model 1 was first developed by the church and was later expanded into a joint-effort between them and the army. Despite that both organizations developed the AI-Srm1 RG, Most of the newly issued weapons have gone to priests in the field.
Specs: Weight Unloaded: 7.0 pounds Weight with Batteries: 10.0 pounds Weight with Batteries and ammo: Depends on ammunition used Length: 26 inches Modes: Semi-automatic Rate of Fire: 70 rounds per minute Magazine Capacity: 8 rounds Ammo Types: (All Dimensions: 90mm length by 26mm diameter) - Solid Cylinder Ammunition: Extremely heavy but simple ammunition, each cylinder weighs 110 grams. The front end of the round is rounded to a point like traditional bullets. This type of ammunition cuts down on the range of the m1 extremely but can easily punch through even the larger Drathonian specimens. SCA Ranges: Max: 400 meters, Effective 350 meters - Hollow Cylinder Explosive Much lighter HCE rounds only weigh in at 95 grams. These rounds are more expensive to make and much more complex than the SCA rounds as they must explode on contact with their target. Generally seen as a support round these are either special issue or given out in small amounts. HCE Ranges: Max 550 meters, Effective 500 meters - Hollow Cylinder Acid The lightest of all ammunitions used in the m1 the HCA rounds weigh 45 grams and are only used by combat priests. They are filled with Altresian Holy Water, an extremely unpleasant and effective synthetic acid that can eat through an inch of steel in 25 seconds. The round is designed to crumble on impact causing the acid to burst outwards. The interior of these rounds are covered with a protective gel, but this can only last for 2 months maximum if not kept at extremely low tempatures. Due to this problem HCA rounds are transported to the front in specialized containers and are issued in large quantities to make use of their short life spans. HCA Ranges: Max 650 meters, Effective 600 Battery Life: 1200 rounds (6 hours recharge) Intended Use: Anti-Infantry/Light Armour
Modes: Semi-automatic: Only mode that can be used by the m1, unlike the standard issue m7 Gauss rifle the AI-SRm1 RG has no delay between shots due to a more effective battery system being used. Despite their being no delay the batteries used can create as much power and the use of heavier ammunition has led to a loss in range. The magazine for the m1 is fixed allowing for the different types of ammo to be breach loaded when needed. SCA ammunition uses a stripper clip holding eight rounds to quickly reload.
Hardware: Aiming: Iron Sights, Wireless link to the LIAM and Priest armours' helmets Batteries: One large battery attached underneath the barrel of the rifle. Troopers and priests are issued a single extra at all times and are responsible for its upkeep and care.

The acid rounds must be kept at extrememly what temperatures?
Also, could I get a general effectiveness for each type of round?
I'd really like art- If you cannot, ask Cadette, or possibly even me.
Other than that, it looks pretty good.

Change the code, it's too human. HUMANS would give it such a code, but if it's Altresian, I expect it to be organized not necessarily differently, but in a different fashion. You need to keep in mind that you are translating by typing it in English.
Also, Kai's comments.
