A weapon is an item that is intended for use in combat - to injure, kill, disarm or incapacitate an opponent or victim, or to otherwise render resources non-functional or unavailable.


 
Weapons may be used to attack and defend, and consequently also to threaten or protect. Metaphorically, anything used to damage (even psychologically) can be referred to as a weapon. A weapon can be as simple as a club or as complex as an intercontinental ballistic missile.

* Various [[Skills|skills]] can modify these default values.  For example, the general ''"Ammo Increase"'' skill will double the ammo carrying capacity of all weapons and grenades, and the [[Rifleman|Rifleman's]] class specific skill ''"Damage Increase"'' will increase damage dealt by your pistols and rifles by 10%.
 
 
*You can prime grenades. All grenades have a fuse of 6 seconds (except the concussion grenade, it has a fuse of 4 seconds). Just hold the grenade as long as you deem necessary. When released, the fuse will keep running, and the grenade will explode prematurely. Use this to your advantage to give the enemy no chance to escape. A grenade will always retain a minimum fuse of 2 seconds. You cannot blow yourself up when priming a grenade
