 Despite the [[stararmy:start]] preference for, and excellence in, space based combat, its forces have numerous difficulties in regards to terrestrial or ground combat. The [[stararmy:equipment:daisy_m6_infantry_power_armor|M6 "Daisy"]] armor in particular lacked a dedicated Melee weapon, despite being designed for more planetary usage. Because of the different conditions of ground based warfare, armored infantry would often find themselves in close proximity with enemy forces, and without an effective melee weapon, were at a disadvantage when opposing forces did have such weapons and escape was not a feasible option. Despite the [[stararmy:start]] preference for, and excellence in, space based combat, its forces have numerous difficulties in regards to terrestrial or ground combat.

-Using Data from numerous conflicts and battles, [[corp:ketsurui_zaibatsu]] and [[corp:origin]] worked together to create a system that filled the melee weapon role with a reliable and cost effective device. The result was the [[ke-m6-w3405_daisy_wristblade]] which was made for general issue and mass production. A more powerful and capable weapon was needed for elite troops, NCO's, and special operations. This need was filled by the Multipurpose Plasma Weapon; a Plasma sub Machine Gun that could be used as a blade with a Hull-Cutting mode. In Blade mode the MPW forms a tight beam or 'blade' out of plasma which can be used as a melee weapon for close quarters combat. In Hull-Cutting mode, the same blade is extended to better cut through hulls, doors, and other hardened objects. Although it is quite powerful, it is detrimental to keep the device active for long periods of time - the MPW has a high power consumption, is very dangerous when active, and is not subtle in any shape, way or form. Additionally, it sacrifices the standard PEWs' mini-turret ability for the added tactical flexibility.+Using Data from numerous conflicts and battles, [[corp:ketsurui_zaibatsu]] and [[corp:origin:start]] worked together to create a system that filled the melee weapon role with a reliable and cost effective device.
