TS-04 Laser Rapier This energized lance projects a monofilament thread that is suspended in a contained energy field. Upon contact, the thread slices through organic and synthetic materials, permanently disabling most creatures and robots. The rapier is usually carried only by senior security officers and military commanders. Ammo: n/a     Damage Per Hit 200 Armor Penetration 80 Offense Value 5 Attack Type Melee Energy
ML-41 Minipistol Designed primarily as a defensive weapon, this minipistol is standard issue for TriOptimum executives.

SB-20 Mag-Pulse Rifle The intense electromagnetic bursts from this rifle damage any shielded circuitry. It is the recommended means of deactivating malfunctioning combat robots. Ammo:   25-count Mag-Pulse Cartridge     Operation Semi-automatic, slow projectile Damage Per Hit 45 Armor Penetration 100 Offense Value 4 Attack Type Magnetic
Sparqbeam Sidearm Although meant as a personal defense device, the sparqbeam generates a respectable offensive blast at higher settings. Note: A single blast desintegrates corpses while contained items fall on the floor. (Tip by Kyur) Ammo: Internal Energy     Operation Electron Burst Damage Per Blast Low - 6; High - 36; Overload - 60 Energy Usage Per Blast Low - 2V; High - 8V; Overload - 24V Armor Penetration 25 Offense Value 3 Attack Type Energy Beam
DH-07 Stun Gun This gun throws a weak plasma projectile at a target, discharging an arc that registers 10 kV to stun living creatures and damage cyborgs. Ammo: Internal Energy     Operation Low intensity, concentric energy burst Damage Per Blast Low - 2; High - 15 Energy Usage Per Blast Low - 3V; High - 30V Armor Penetration 0 Offense Value 3 Attack Type Projectile Energy Beam
ER-90 Blaster This new laser weapon fires a pulse of high-energy ultraviolet light. The built-in liquid nitrogen cooling system allows for high-intensity damage. Ammo: Internal Energy     Operation Single-pulse ultraviolet ray Damage Per Blast Low - 12; High - 70; Overload - 115 Energy Usage Per Blast Low - 3V; High - 15V; Overload - 50V Armor Penetration 25 Offense Value 4 Attack Type Energy Beam
RW-45 Ion Rifle Prototypes of this advanced energy beam gun evolved from late-model beam sidearms. It delivers a powerful stream of ionic particles with more force than normal blaster guns. Ammo: Internal Energy     Operation Particle beam burst Damage Per Blast Low - 18; High - 108; Overload - 180 Energy Usage Per Blast Low - 5V; High - 30V; Overload - 100V Armor Penetration 35 Offense Value 6 Attack Type Energy Beam

Information taken from the ICE Breaker.
Thanks to Karen for writing it all down in the first place, to ZylonBane for more & better images and to myself for re-coding.

If she never responds, you could always say the info was taken from the ICE Breaker, as I believe that's where she obtained hers. Of course, you'd have to do without the pictures, but it's better than nothing.

[6622548ba6b6bKolya]

Well I only mailed her today, so we'll see about that.

[6622548ba6c48Enchantermon]

Understood, that was simply a "just in case" thing.

[6622548ba6d99ZylonBane]

Replacing the weapon pictures would actually be a good thing, since these all appear to have been dithered down to a web-safe palette.

Adding the HUD icons would be a cool improvement too.

[6622548ba6e6cKolya]

Well, help me!

[6622548ba6f53Kolya]

I just received Karen's permission to put up these infos. Thanks Karen!

[6622548ba7026Enchantermon]

Awesome; thanks Karen!

Attached is a ZIP of all the SS1 weapon sprites and weapon HUD icons, extracted directly from the resource files. PNG format with transparency. Sprites zoomed 300%, HUD icons zoomed 200%.

[6622548ba71ecKolya]

Thanks, I worked the new images in and rewrote the whole thing to validate.

[6622548ba72eeZylonBane]

Any way to get the black border back? Most of the weapons are kind of hard to see on the gray background.

The apparently random differences between weapon sprite sizes and their icon sizes is weird, but I guess we can't really do anything about it.

[6622548ba73f2Kolya]

I noticed the weird sizes too, it's understandable though as proportionally correct icons would have been too small or too large for the interface and possibly indistinguishable.

I switched the columns, I think it makes more sense to have the names first and the images be a part of associated data.

[6622548ba74d3ZylonBane]

Looking good!

Personally I'd prefer the weapon sprites on top of the icons, but maybe that's just me.

Very nice list of information, but there's one thing that confuses me about the  ML-41's ammunation:

Damage Per Hit   Standard - 20; Teflon - 30
Armor Penetration   Standard - 20; Teflon - 30

Well, where's the difference ?

[6622548ba797eNameless Voice]

From the I.C.E.  Breaker:

WEAPON DAMAGE
Damage calculations undergo four major steps. 

1.  Armor Absorption.  If a hit is scared, the weapon's penetration value is compared to the target's armor value.  If the armor value isn't greater than the penetration value, the target's armor doesn't affect the bit and the creature takes the weapon's full damage.  If the armor value  is greater than the penetration value, than the damage is reduced by that many points. 

2.  Weapon Vulnerabilities. If the creature  is particularly  vulnerable to the weapon, the damage may be doubled or quadrupled (refer to table on p.  40).  For example, all robots have • • • • ("quadrupled") vulnerability to Magnetic attacks, and an EMP grenade makes a Magnetic attack.  Any robot will take double damage from an EMP grenade. 

3.  Critical Hits. Each weapon has an offense value.  Every creature has a defense value.  If the attack value is higher than the defense value, you can score a critical  hit [a hit that strikes the weakest part of a creature's armor).  If not, a critical hit is not possible. 
The greater the difference between these two values, the greater the chance of scoring a critical hit, and the greater the damage of the critical hit.  Critical hits can result in anywhere from 33% to 300% extra damage.  (Critical hit damage is in addition to the result of any weapon vulnerabilities.  If a weapon scores a critical hit on a particularly vulnerable creature, that hit might inflict 16 times normal damage.)

4.  Random Factor. The weapon's total damage is randomized by +/-10%.  Damage randomization can change how much damage the same weapon delivers during different attacks.

Damn, I totally got (read) it wrong, my bad. Shouldn't get into game mechanic calculations on a very late saturday night (even if they are very basic), sorry, feel free to delete my posts here
