    • • Honeywell M1067 Hand Grenade: loaded on the lower right side of the arm and requiring special motion to propel. Ordnance detonation is controlled through two methods (dial or remote control). Loading for each mission is optional and changes based on terrain and specs.

    • Royal Ordnance M1108 Anti-Tank Daggar: British Royal Ordnance manufactured, loads on the Arbalest’s left side with blade protected in the hilt. Despite its name, this is not a blade but an explosive weapon device that can be thrown. The force of explosion has the capacity to burn through enemy armor; enhanced by high temperature jets initiated by contact.

    • Graw-2: Enhanced version of the standard monomolecular cutter designed for AS use, the GRAW-2 is actually a collection of shards of monomolecular blades that operate very much like a chainsaw, making it extremely durable. Blade length and shape is variable.

    • Multiple Armament Latch: On the backside of the Arbalest, level with the hips, this attachment allows for various weaponry to be attached to the mech for ease of movement during battle. When weapons are released, the two clips simply move apart from one another, releasing the weapon at the pilot’s command.

    • “Boxer” Scattershot: Otto Melara Italian Company design. Is a new development for short range AS use. Optimal for close range combat and hit-and-run tactics. Cannon disguised as a shotgun with retention of ability to fire ammunition. Ammo includes armor piercing rounds (APFSDS) and squash head rounds (00-HESH).

    • Chain Gun: Mounted on the head of the mech. Can fire at 1800 rounds per minute. Low power weapon that was included on the M9.

    • Emergency Deployment Booster: Backpacked emergency booster with enormous wings designed to lift an Arm Slave to its combat zone with speed that is unattainable by helicopter. The range is 40 kilometers and it can be used as a glider. When the fuel is gone, descent is aided by a parachute that unfurls after booster detachment.
