You know those MAX melee weapons

[Canaris]

I don't know how serious the Dev's were over the MAX melee weapons but the thing that struck me as odd was.

Giant Sword for the VS
Giant Axe for the NC
&
A set of brass knuckles for the TR

2 semi-ranged weapons on the other two and a very close range for the TR, like the Anti-personnel claymore mines this is just screaming bad design again for the TR.
I know a set of brass knuckles is very kewl, I agree but vs the other two it's out of place.
We're the TR right, we love law, order and all that good stuff right? well that has to be enforced and civil disobedience rooted out or put down quick.
We are a modern military to boot

hence i suggest we move away from the old bludgeon style and get with the times.

give us

TR - Shocklance

History:
A weapon first rolled out for nonlethal breakup of unauthorized gatherings it was styled on bovine control rods (cattle prod) but has since been incorporated into military use to counter the us of dangerous melee weapon of the NC & VS.
Made much more powerful thanks to being linked in with the TR max's power system the shocklance is capable of delivering huge amounts of superheated energy generated at the special tip capable of melting thick armour of infantry and other maxes units (even vehicles too if the NC & VS ones do)
I think it could be more iconic for the TR and just as deadly as the Axe and Sword design with the same range.
