...in the grim darkness of the far future, there is only war.. Men of the Emperor: Burning Horizon hopes to bring the brutal, grim, dark and wonderful universe of Warhammer 40,000 we all love to the Men of War real-time strategy game franchise. With a small but dedicated team, we hope to bring as much of WH40K into the game as we can.
A plasma gun is a generic term for a two handed, rifle like, plasma based weapon used by the forces of the Imperium as well as Chaos in a support role. The weapon fires a highly energised ball of hydrogen based plasma. This plasma ball or 'bolt' is accelerated through a magnetic accelerator, which upon impact with the target detonates with the power of a small sun. Generally Imperial models are prone to overheating and can cause severe injury or death to the user should they experience such a meltdown. Imperial Guardsmen consider it a dubious honor to be chosen as a squads plasma gunner for this exact reason. Aesthetically they appear to be stubby and rather clunky, with a ribbed back and flared cooling vents along the front. Hydrogen flasks stick out of the butt, and bottom of the weapon. These flasks generally contains enough fuel for at least 10 shots before needing to be replaced. Replacing these flasks is time consuming and difficult in the best of situations. Handheld plasma guns can be found throughout the Imperial war machine, from the mighty Imperial Guard to the elite Space Marines.

Can't wait to use it. Looks good.
Nice Texture but a little too clean IMO.
A Plasma Gun stays clean even in battle cuz every shoot makes the gun this hot, that dirt and dust burn away. Only the muzzle and it's heat-vents on the sides should be scorched.
yeah, i'm just starting to get a little better at texturing.
weathering and details are still my weak point though.
i'll see about adding some more details later on.
Texturing looks good Chompster and everyone has to improve on something, including me. :-)
thanks :D
Agreed, Especially if it's used by Space Marines. XD
Since losing specific limbs is not possible in mow this better set people on fire.
It is possible. Zombie mod has models for exploding corpses.
I just want to know if it will be set to potentially, randomly explode, like any self respecting piece of Guard equipment should!
Muahaha! Oh, Plasma weapons, you will always hold a special place in my heart and the place that my victim's torso once was.
*Dies of heart attack.*
I applaud you to the research you have done mods def gonna be good
So who's the unlucky bastard to get this.
