The Flamer (Original Mercs & Mektek MP3.0)
This unit comes in Both Innersphere & Clan Versions. Vents engine plasma from the Battlemech`s drive system. The mech`s engine can compensate and
replenish the lost plasma, giving this type of flamer a recycle time. The original type of flamer was found on
small units other than mechs & used fuel not engine plasma. This unit also causes heat not just for your target but also for you. Heat-sinks are a must.

Beam Laser (Original Mercs & Mektek MP3.0)
shoots a beam that sticks with a moving BattleMech after firing, no matter what the Mech does. The brightness of the beam indicates the size of the laser. This weapon does cause heat and has a recycle time.
The Laser types available to you include;
Inner Sphere Small, Medium, & Large, Clan Extended Range (ER) Small, Medium, & Large

The Pulse Laser (Original Mercs & Mektek MP3.0) Is a rapid-fire laser. Whenever the trigger is held down, you’ll see a series of beams shoot from the Mechs weapons. A new beam fires every fraction of a second. Pulse laser types include both: Inner Sphere :- small, medium, & large. Clan : (ER) small, medium, & large

The "X"- Pulse Laser (Original Mercs & Mektek MP3.0)
A rapid-fire laser. This unit does cause more heat than the standard type of pulse laser & has a slower recycle
time, but on the upside it does greater damage.
Pulse laser types: Inner Sphere :- small, medium, & large. Only.

Particle Projection Cannon (Original Mercs & Mektek MP3.0)
The PPC is a shimmering blue bolt, much like a cross between lightning and a sine wave that ripples along its path. It is the only beam weapon with a travel time, so fire carefully.
versions are available: Both Inner Sphere (PPC) & Clan (ERPPC)

Capacitor Particle Projection Cannon (Mektek MP3.0 Only)
The Capacitor PPC is a standard PPC with the added bonus of extra power storage. The weapon does do more damage but at the expense of an increased recharge time.
versions are available: Inner Sphere (PPC) Only

Light Particle Projection Cannon (PPC) (Mektek MP3.0 Only)
A Clan trial to enhance the PPC to be carried by smaller units. The Light PPC does slightly less damage & has a slight gain on recharge time against an Inner Sphere version of a standard PPC.
versions are available: Clan (PPC) Only

Linked Capacitor PPC (Mektek MP3.0 Only)
A Clan enhancement of their Light PPC, with two capacitors the weapon is given a higher fire rate & damage output against the standard Light PPC, but at the expense of increased heat output.
versions are available: Clan (PPC) Only
Large Continuous Beam Laser (Mektek MP3.0 Only)
An Inner Sphere improvement of their pulse laser system. The weapons fires a continuous pulsating beam over a range of 900mtrs. Due to its great range the weapon has a low damage output & you may suffer from overheating your systems with prolonged firing.
versions are available: Inner Sphere Only
Heavy Laser (Mektek MP3.0 Only)
Clan weapons continually search for improvement. The Heavy Laser System come in small, medium & large. The larger will produce as much power as a PPC, but all three version suffer from short firing ranges. Beware it'll heat your mech up if you have too many.
versions are available: Clan Only
Assault Laser (Mektek MP3.0 Only)
A hard weapon to get to grips with. This weapon produces a great deal of damage in the right hands. Originally designed for emplacements the Inner Sphere redesigned it to be mech friendly. The heat output to damage ratio are nearly the same, so don't forget your heat sinks.
versions are available: Inner sphere Only
The Plasma Cannon (Mektek MP3.0)
This unit come in a Clan Version only. Similar to the Flamer but redesigned for heavier units, it vents plasma from a stored reservoir of engine plasma. This is the most aggressive flamer type weapon there is. Not only it does massive damage, it will overheat you in an instant if you are too close to what your shooting at, use with care.
The Targeting Laser (Mektek MP3.0)
This unit comes "X" (Cross Clan) It does no damage & has a very little heat output. It does however have a 1000mtr range. So its ok to pin-point those Mechs with missiles from a relative safe distance.
 
Helpful Systems for Energy Weapon Users

Cooling Pods (Mektek MP3.0)
These Units come in; Inner sphere small & Clan Large. both units are designed to rapidly reduce your mechs heat & possibly stop you from shutting down or blowing yourself up. This unit is designed in addition to your mechs standard system so helpful if your taking a lot of hot toys with you.
