| |
| - |
| |
| - | This wonder of the Age of Sorrows consists of exceptional mortal armor - Articulated Plate, Plate-and-Chain and Superheavy Plate can all be modified with a series of steam-powered clockwork devices which ease their movement and help support their great weight. Armor so-equipped reduces its Fatigue value to 0, and subtracts 2 from its Mobility Penalty. Clockwork Armor has a Repair Rating of 2.<br>

| |

| |
| - | This exceptional sledge is equipped with a specially designed head, installed with densely packed, spring-loaded pistons. Its base damage is reduced to +6B/2 for the first four successful attacks made with it. On the fifth attack, however, it releases the stored energy of the first four attacks, increasing its damage to +16L/5. Piston Hammers have a repair rating of 1.<br>

| - | === Dragon Tooth Launchers ===
| |
| - | These handheld devices, called "firearmaments", or firearms, by their inventor due to their use of some of the repulsion effects found in Air and Fire aspected Essence, were developed during the late High First Age, but really didn't come into widespread use until the early Shogunate, when the Dragon-Blooded found that their designs were relatively easy to reproduce.<br>
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Dragon Tooth Launchers are ranged weapons that use the Archery skill, and fire small slugs of steel or lead at high velocities using a magitech-enhanced alchemical reaction. At 2 dots, they come in two available versions - a one-handed weapon fed from a cylinder that can hold six slugs, and a two-handed, high-rate version that holds a higher number of rounds in a small box that "clips" into the feeding mechanism of the weapon, holding about 20 shots total before it must be reloaded. These devices aren't often produced in the Second Age, but can be found in Shogunate weapons caches or in the hands of Lookshayan urban guerillas.<br>

| |
| - | These items benefit from magical material bonuses as thrown weapons. The following mundane ammunition types are available for Dragon Tooth Launchers:
| |
| - |
| |
| - | * Normal Ammunition, Resources 1 for 20 Shots, Base Damage: 6L<br>
| |
| - | * Steel Ammunition, Resources 2 for 20 shots, Base Damage: 4L, Adds P tag<br>
| |
| - | * Exploding Ammunition, Resources 2 for 10 shots, Base Damage: 6L; Exploding ammo does base damage to everyone within 10 yards of the target as a secondary Environmental effect. A botch may cause Exploding Ammunition to explode in the weapon, dealing base damage x the number of rounds in the weapon to the character.<br>
| |
| - | * Bean bullets, Resource 1 for 20 shots, Base Damage: 8B<br>

| |
| - | A popular variant of the Dragon Tooth pistol is a hold-out design used by assassins and diplomats in the Shogunate period. Constructed out of transparent adamant, the gun only carried one bullet, but was nearly impossible to detect, adding 4 to the difficulty of all Awareness rolls to detect it once concealed. It had the following stats:

| - | Note: If the Machine Firearm is used to make 4 or more attacks in a single action two actions in row (through flurries or Extra Action charms), the build up of fire-aspected Essence in the chamber may cause overheating on the second action. Roll a number of dice equal to the total number of shots fired on both actions, every three successes deals one level of bashing damage to the user, soaked normally.<br>

| |
| - |
| |
| - | This weapon was one of the later weapons designed prior to the Usurpation and, though many Exalts preferred bows due to their greater potential range, a sizeable minority enjoyed the increased accuracy and damage of the Dragon Tooth weapon.<br>
| |
| - |
| |
| - | This weapon has a setting for a single hearthstone, and benefits from magical material bonuses as an Archery weapon. It is otherwise similar to the two-dot Dragon Tooth weapons. A Dragon Tooth Rifle holds ten shots.<br>

| - | === "Dragon Fire" Dragon-Tooth Launcher ===
| |
| - |
| |
| - | This specialty Dragon-Tooth Launcher was designed for ship crews - having a shorter accurate range and less penetration than other designs, but making up for it with tremendous close-range power, making it more useful against the unarmoured opponents more commonly found at sea. At Artifact 3, it holds two shots before it needs to be reloaded. Artifact 4 versions exist, which hold 8 shots in an internal magazine.<br>
