-**Projection/ammo type: Plasma.  +Projection/ammo type: Plasma.  
-**Firing Mechanism: The Ingtris functions by sucking atmosphere in through the rear of the weapon before condensing and super-heating it within the weapon – turning it into plasma. When the trigger is pulled the weapon electromagnetically projects this plasma in a sheet. The weapon continues to take in atmosphere while the weapon fires, but the heat of the plasma reduces rapidly after the first few seconds.  +Firing Mechanism: The Ingtris functions by sucking atmosphere in through the rear of the weapon before condensing and super-heating it within the weapon – turning it into plasma.

 The damage the weapon deals varies on the distance the plasma has travelled, due to its cooling. Within 40 metres the plasma can melt metal and incinerate personnel, within 60 it can burn through most protective material, and within 100 it causes fatal burning or severe burning of the flesh and so forth.  The damage the weapon deals varies on the distance the plasma has travelled, due to its cooling.

-**Fire mode selector: A button on the right hand side activates a mode which results in the weapon firing for exactly a second when the trigger is pulled. In addition to this there is a range selector behind the left-hand handle – this focuses the beam more inwards for situations where the full range is not required. In this situation it sacrifices range for greater power.  +Fire mode selector: A button on the right hand side activates a mode which results in the weapon firing for exactly a second when the trigger is pulled.
