The Maelstrom's Vortex Whip is an energy stream that does damage
to the intended target for each moment that it stays in contact. The Chain-Lash
Grenades are indirect grenades that will lash targets in the area when they
explode, and then chain-lash other nearby targets thereafter.

The Radiator lobs indirect projectiles that irradiate the impact
zone briefly after impact. Thus, when soldiers enter an irradiated area, they
begin to take damage immediately, only ceasing to be damaged once they leave the
impact zone.

The Spiker builds small orbs that increase in intensity based on
how long you hold the trigger before releasing it. When the orbs meet it's
target and detonates, the power of the blast will be determined by how long you
let the orb build up within the muzzle.
