 Role: The HPAR’s purpose is, essentially, an anti-armor role. However, due to the nature of the weapon itself, can be used for assaulting unarmored personnel, as well as medium to large vehicles. One of the more outstanding features of the HPAR is the relatively cheap amount of materials necessary, and the obscene amount of ammunition able to be loaded into a single drum magazine. Intended use is for [[species:Nepleslian]] powered armors, but due to its independent-system nature, can be used by others as well. Role: The HPAR’s purpose is, essentially, an anti-armor role.

-**Projection/ammo type: Metal-Vapor propelled metalloid “Coin” round+Projection/ammo type: Metal-Vapor propelled metalloid “Coin” round
  
-**Firing Mechanism: When trigger is pressed, a single ‘coin’ round is loaded into the barrel chamber. In the rear of the weapon, a length of thick copper wiring from a roped copper ring. is led into a vacuum chamber, attached to an electrode and cut from the rest of the wire. The electrode is then charged, and the wire is the quickly heated past its threshold of heat tolerance. This results in a sublimation effect; the copper wire instantly turns from a solid to a gas, resulting in a heft explosion of force and heat, which is funneled out of the barrel and onto the loaded ‘coin’ round. The wave of heat and force contacts with the convexed end first, forming a ‘spike’ of molten metal which is then propelled out of the barrel through the remaining force. The semi-solid projectile is funnel through the magnetic rifling barrel which reacts to the metalloid by pushing it together, keeping the shot straight as it leaves the barrel. Copper wire is then set in the vacuum chamber again, a coin round is replaced and loaded, and the cycle is repeated.+Firing Mechanism: When trigger is pressed, a single ‘coin’ round is loaded into the barrel chamber.

-**Note: Battery for powering the multiple weapon systems, including the on-board digital screen, cooling systems and electrode is located on the rear of the weapon on the stock. The battery is large and powerful, usually lasting well into a fight and only needing to be recharged when returning to an armory; can theoretically support up to ~6,000 rounds.+Note: Battery for powering the multiple weapon systems, including the on-board digital screen, cooling systems and electrode is located on the rear of the weapon on the stock.

-**Field Maintenance Procedure: Should the weapons battery of N2 coolant systems run out of materials to process, there is no way to replace them in the field unless you have substantial knowledge of the components, inner workings of the gun, as well as have replacement components. It’s highly recommended that the user simply go to great lengths to protect his weapon…most maintenance procedures can only be worked on my armory professionals.+Field Maintenance Procedure: Should the weapons battery of N2 coolant systems run out of materials to process, there is no way to replace them in the field unless you have substantial knowledge of the components, inner workings of the gun, as well as have replacement components.

-**Replaceable Parts and components: The HPAR’s main body can be dismantled piece by piece, and replaced accordingly. The most common replacements are the N2 coolant system containers, battery, and copper-wire roll. The main body of the weapon is a solid piece; most of the systems for the vacuum chamber and firing mechanisms are permanently houses within the weapon. Tampering is not encouraged.+Replaceable Parts and components: The HPAR’s main body can be dismantled piece by piece, and replaced accordingly.
