----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
_________________________________________________________________________________________
The weapons are as follows:
Shatterpoint Sniper Rifle: A rare, deadly, powerful sniper rifle, This rifle is rarely seen in use against infantry, more commonly used against hardened, heavily reinforced vehicles. The shatterpoint's power comes from it's unique ordinance, a massive slug held together primarily by mass effect fields. After the initial strike from the slug, the ordinance shatters, in a manner that has been compared to a shotgun blast, shredding even the most heavily defended of targets with two-stage damage of mass proportion. (For comparison; Imagine a widow shot, followed by a claymore shot in terms of damage)
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Halberd Assault Rifle: A seldom-seen assault rifle originally designed for Council Spectres who expected fierce organic resistance. Firing mini-flecettes, this assault rifles shreds anything or anyone lacking in military grade armor-hardening, dealing massive internal damage and ensuring that if the target survives the firefight, he will not make it to a medic. A common phrase uttered in reference to the gun is: "If it can bleed, this gun will make it pray for death." (It has a bleed effect similar to that of the kishock, but roughly the same rate of fire as the avenger.)
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Wolverine SMG: A borderline illegal prototype weapon, developed by CAT6 to maximize accuracy and stopping power, this gun uses multiple stabilization and ordinance enhancement modifications to allow for multiple rounds to be fired down-range while sacrificing as little damage as possible. Unfortunately, it lacks the advanced cooling apparatus used in many other weapons, resulting in a fairly low clip size for an SMG. (Imagine the locust, with lower clip size and much more damage)
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Geth pulse pistol: A unique weapon of geth design, featuring an unusual cooling system, funneling large amounts of excess heat out of the weapon alongside it's ordinance, giving it both a truly massive thermal clip capacity and the ability to burn through armor, with an effect that functions much like incendiary ammunition. (A larger clip than the N7 pistol, and built in incendiary ammo.)
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Quicksilver Shotgun: A shotgun of batarian design, this weapon fires, in lieu of ordinary shotgun munitions, a web of razor wire, ripping through health and armor, and bleeding most anything caught in the web of razors till it is dead. A brutal weapon, capable of firing the web at surprisingly high velocities once charged sufficiently, allowing it to cut through multiple targets, rending them apart as it passes. (Fire a net, like submission net, only it goes straight instead of tracking. it can be charged to pierce through enemies.)

The maps are:
Firebase Trinity:
A four tiered, half bowl shaped like the half-bowl arena in the grissom acadamy mission, this map offers amplie high ground... and ample hallways for enemies to ambush you from.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Firebase Destroyer:
A two (and a half) tiered, thin map, taking place in a dry-dock, the lower tier has multiple evenly space, shallow indents providing limited cover. Meanwhile, the maintenance catwalks above, meanwhile, provide a good vantage point, but far less cover than the crates and indentations you will find on the lower level.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Firebase Vigil:
A tangled mess of half-finished catwalks and maintenance passages, the question to be answered when protecting your allies and reaching objectives is not 'Where is it'? it is 'How do I GET there?' The most straightforward path may not always be the right one, but at the very least all roads lead back to the center ring around the core. Vanguards, at least, can have some GOOD fun on this map, though.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Firebase Siege:
A unique map, and one that would make kirrahe proud. Set atop fortifications, this map is unique in that Enemies can spawn both on the wall players are tasked with defending, and down in the area which the wall overlooks. with plenty of cover from fire coming from below, you will have unsurpassed vantage points when fighting anything down below. Take note, however, that enemies which can't rocket their way up to you will still spawn up on the battlements with you, but only if they can't ascend themselves. Banshees, marauders, geth, cerberus and collector troops will all be forced to reach you from their spawns down on the ground.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Firebase Cycle:
Three enclosed rooms, three sunken kill pits, three towers from which to rain death upon unfortunate enemies, this firebase features an alternating circle of sunken pits, submerged ankle deep in water, and slightly raised monitoring rooms, with ladders in each room taking people to a raised overlook, which grants a nice field of vision for any who wish to overlook the arena. With the only entrance to each of the towers the single ladder, you can easily become trapped in the tower by enemies waiting below... or easy pickings for an enemy that wanted to come up to meet you.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Firebase Swarm:
A small station found behind the omega relay, but noticeably seperate from the collector base itself. Four interlocking rings of concentrically raised platforms lead to an unusuall situation, where there is little high ground, and little incentive to keep it. Keep moving, keep ascending and descending to keep enemies on their toes. Though falling off the arena is possible, a ladder is waiting to take anyone who falls to the flat platform below up to the highest vantage point of the arena.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Firebase Vendetta:
A massive, sprawling complex, with a little of everything. Massive mass drivers overlook multiple rooms and hallways of varying sizes, while raised landing pads and lowered platforms play host to devious killboxes, and one can ascend the ladder on the side of the mass driver in the center for an unparralelled view of the battlefield from the matinence catwalk around it.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
And now, here are the powers I mentioned on those classes up there but are not present in the game so nobody knows how they work, so here you go, for your perusing pleasure, the SKILLS:
_________________________________________________________________________________________
CAT6 Heavy Soldier:
Omni shield; Erect a shield projected from your omni-tool, slowing you down, slowing your reload times decreasing accuracy and preventing you from entering cover, but intercepting all attacks from the front so long as it remains active. Should the shield take too much damage, it will break, deactivating and forcing you to wait on it's cooldown. It's health will slowly regenerate while not taking damage. You can still suffer knockback while it is active, but you will stagger back while holding your shield in front of you, meaning you don't lose any damage protection from, say, a scion triple-tap. Note that the other two powers cannot be activated while this is inactive. The shield will shift from blue to yellow to red as it takes damage, then backwards from red to yellow to blue as it's health recharges. You are also able to tell how much health your shield has, as it's power icon will reverse-recharge as it takes damage until it is fully un-charged, breaking and re-charging. Note cooldown only activates upon the shield turning off.
Rank 1: Unlock
Rank 2: Increase shield health by 25%
Rank 3: Reduce cooldown by 30%
Rank 4a: Decrease accuracy and movement speed penalties by 33%
Rank 4b: Increase shield health by 25%
Rank 5a: Electrify the shield, priming enemies which melee it for tech bursts.
Rank 5b: Increase shield health by 35% and shield health regeneration speed by 20%
Rank 6a: When the shield breaks or is deactivated manually, release a powerful energy pulse, staggering enemies around you and temporarily supercharging your shields to add an extra 50%
Rank 6b: Increase shield health and health regeneration speed by 25%, reflect projectiles that hit the shield,(Note that this does not negate the damage)
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Bulwark: Plant and harden your shield, creating a hard piece of cover you or allies can take cover behind like a wall. Only one bulwark may be active at a time, and it will deactivate after a period of time, removing the cover. Taking damage will expedite this deactivation. Like the normal omni-shield, this will also shift from blue to yellow to red as it comes closer to deactivating. All health bonuses applied to the omni-shield will also apply to the shield wall, thus increasing the amount of time which a single wall can remain active. (Note that this will NOT trigger the long cooldown of the omni-shield, it will instead trigger it's own, much shorter cooldown)
Rank 1: Unlock
Rank 2: Decrease recharge time by 15%
Rank 3: Decrease the speed which shield wall health is lost by 20%
Rank 4a: Decrease speed at which shield wall health is lost by 15%
Rank 4b: Decrease recharge time by 20%
Rank 5a: Increase the shields and damage of allies taking cover behind the shield wall by 15%
Rank 5b: Channel weapon heat into the shield, increasing clip size byy 25%
Rank 6a: Turn the shield wall on it's side, allowing two allies to hide behind wait high cover instead of one hiding behind full height cover
Rank 6b: When the shield wall deactivates, detonate it to damage and stagger any enemies in the blast radius. this can prime and detonate tech bursts.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Phalanx: Supercharge your omni-shield, erecting a bubble of shields decreasing damage taken by allies in it's radius, decreasing their shield recharge delay, increasing the damage they deal, and increasing damage damage dealt to enemies in it's radius, but immobilizing you at it's center. you are also immune to staggers while this skill is active. (think volus heavy melee, only merged with the biotic bubble from the asari justicar)
Rank 1: Unlock
Rank 2: Increase damage protection and boost by 15%
Rank 3: Decrease shield recharge delay by 25%
Rank 4a: Increase radius by 50%
Rank 4b: Increase damage dealt to enemies inside the bubble by 30%
Rank 5a: Electrify the interior of the bubble, priming enemies for tech bursts
Rank 5b: Enemies who attempt to enter the bubble are staggered the first time they attempt to enter the bubble
Rand 6a: Solidify the shields in front of where you are aiming, preventing allies, allied fire, enemies and enemy fire from entering or leaving the bubble in the direction you are facing. (So you can rotate the camera to move an impenetrable wall around to protect teammates from powerful attacks)
Rank 6b: Upon deactivation of the sheild, release a burst of heat, dealing damage based upon the amount of full clips fired by your allies within the bubble while it was active, detonating tech comboes. (Note, this takes into account, for damage calculation, the clip size of each of your allies weapons, and then determines, based on the amount of times your allies fired that amount of shots from that weapon, how much damage to deal. for example, emptying a clip from a revenant and a claymore would both add the same amount of damage to the burst released upon deactivation.)
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Ex-Cerberus Venerator engineer: (Aesthetically, he will wear the kestrel armor set from Mass effect 2, as opposed to the armor the other two ex-Cerberus classes wear.
Venerator turret: deploy a heavy turret to lock down an area. only one turret may be deployed at a time. The turret will fire in bursts. (Deploying the turret will take roughly as long as it takes for a grenade pylon to go up, but the engineer is immobilized for the entire time. It will function alot like the cerberus turret.)
Rank 1: Unlock
Rank 2: Turret deployment time decreased by 5%
Rank 3: increase turret health by 25%
Rank 4a: Decrease time between bursts of fire by 5%
Rank 4b: Upgrade the turret with drill rounds, allowing it to fire through cover. (Now it can fire through thin cover like those counters on firebase white.)
Rank 5a: decrease time between bursts of fire by 10%
Rank 5b: Upgrade the turret with a hawk missile launcher, allowing it to fire missiles around corners to stagger and knock down foes. (stap the hawk missile launcher from the destroyer on top of the turret, and ignore the shield penalty. it doesn't have any upgrades, but it does knock enemies down)
Rank 6a: decrease time between bursts of fire by 5%
Rank 6b: Upon destruction, the turret detonates, damaging anyone in the blast radius, and staggering anyone outside the blast radius. (Note that you can kill your teammates with this detonation... which is approximately the size and force of a possessed abomination. it will hit enemies as well, however. and knock down humanoid enemies for a significant distance outside the blast, it will also stagger anything less than a juggernaut if they are outside the blast radius of the explosion but not the "secondary" blast radius.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Volus Predator Infiltrator:
Predator camouflage: Activate a light bending matrix, decreasing visibility to your enemies. Slows power usage, and decreases run speed (Toggle, roughly 1/4 the effectiveness at ditching enemies as tactical cloak)
Mechanics: It is kinda like a pseudo-invisibility. enemies still notice you, they just notice you less than your allies, drawing some of the heat off of the mobile shield pylon. When taking aggressive actions, such as a heavy melee, firing your gun, or spawning a drone, your cloak drops, then reapplies after a few moments. It also boosts the length of the light melee's cloak effect.
Rank 1: Unlock
Rank 2: Reduce cooldown by 15%
Rank 3: Increase light melee cloak length bonus
Rank 4a: Reduce cloak reapplication time after firing weapons or a heavy melee.
Rank 4b: Increase weapon damage.
Rank 5a: Reduce speed penalty and power cooldown penalty.
Rank 5b: Increase lenghth of light melee cloak effect further.
Rank 6a: Extend the field around you, allowing teammates within a 2 meter radius to share the camouflage at limited effectiveness. (it applies no bonuses OR penalties, and as you have to skip a visibility decrease, it is only 1/4 as effective as tactical cloak, just applied to everyone within it's radius)
Rank 6b: Reduce visibility even further, and increase light melee cloak duration. Slows power usage and decreases speed (roughly half as effective as TC)
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Predator drone:
Spawn a drone which will cloak and attack enemies with a light shotgun.
Mechanics: Spawn a drone that will, once spawned, turn invisible and find the nearest enemy. It will then decloak, fire it's shotgun at the enemy until the enemy dies or it takes too much damage, at which point it will recloak and return to the player who spawned it to heal, or hunt down another enemy respectively. (note that it can be healed with shield boost, and is kinda toggled, except if it dies you have to spawn another.)
1: Unlock
2: Decrease cooldown by 20%
3: Increase drone movement speed by 10%
4a: Allows drone to break cloak by attacking, rather than having to drop cloak then begin firing.
4b: Increases drone damage by 15%
5a: Apply Phasic rounds, increasing damage dealt to shields
5b: Apply armor piercing rounds, increasing effectiveness against armor
6a: Claymore: Increase the damage of each shotgun blast by 50%, however the drone can only engage enmies within melee range.
6b: Eviscerator: Increase the distance at which the drone can engage enemies, allowing it to attack from a safe distance.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
CAT6 Specialist Vanguard
Though not technically biotics in their own right, CAT 6 employs specialists with Eezo enhanced armor systems and extensive augmentations to simulate combat grade biotics.
Biotic charge: Basically almost the same as everyone else's, only light blue like CAT6 drones instead of dark blue like the other vanguards. CAT 6 does it with style. It is basically the normal biotic charge with normal evolutions except for one evolution. still restores shields, the whole shebang.
Rank 1: Unlock
Rank 2: Increase recharge speed
Rank 3: increase damage and force
Rank 4a: staggers and deals light damage to enemies within a 2 meter radius
Rank 4b: Force and damage are increased
Rank 5a: Boosts weapon damage after a biotic charge
Rank 5b: Boosts power damage after a biotic charge
Rank 6a: Detonating a biotic explosion with charge will re-prime all enemies stuck by the explosion
Rank 6b: Barriers restored increased from 50% to 100%
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Targeting drone: Summon a small drone, aestetically similar to the CAT6 kamikaze drones, to hover over your shoulder. It will aim at an enemy targeted by powers and emit a laser at them to prime them after a few moments.
Rank 1: Unlock
Rank 2: Decrease cooldown
Rank 3: Increase biotic detonation damage
Rank 4a: Increase the radius of biotic explosions primed by the drone.
Rank 4b: Decrease time taken to prime a target
Rank 5a: Increase damage and force of biotic explosions
Rank 5b: Highlight enemies target through walls for allies
Rank 6a: Allows the drone to target and prime enemies through walls. (Note that this forces your power targeting recticle to focus on an enemy through a wall... Charge away)
Rank 6b: Increase force, damage and radius of biotic explosions.
_________________________________________________________________________________________
Biotic blades: Much like ballistic blades or nightshade blades, but they don't use grenades. they also detonate biotic explosions. they, too are light blue like that of the CAT6 drones.
Rank 1: Unlock
Rank 2: Decrease cooldown
Rank 3: Increase damage
Rank 4a: Widen and flatten the spread, hitting a wide arc
Rank 4b: Tighten the spread, focusing the blades into a narrower cone
Rank 5a: Decrease movement speed of enemies hit by blades. the movement penalty is proportional to the amount of blades which hit them
Rank 5b: Regain shields for every blade which strikes and enemy.
Rank 6a: Blades which miss and embed themselves in walls, floors and ceilings will detonate should an enemy walk near them, dealing minor damage.
Rank 6b: If more than one blade strikes an enemy that is primed for a biotic explosion, or if the enemy blades are stuck in is hit with a biotic or tech combo, the blades will scatter, striking other enemies within range.
Feedback is appreciated, as is anyone who wants to maybe make pictures to go with the maps or power icons, because I sure can't make art like that.
Edit: Have divided different items with lines, have bolded names of powers. Have also added some more space between powers.
Edit 2: Have added four maps, would like feedback.
Edit 3: Have added a pistol and shotgun, would like feedback on them as well.
Edit 4: Have added short descriptions at the end of weapons comparing them to other weapons for comparison.
