I thought of something just a little while ago. Everyone's all excited about the inclusion of grav weapons in the new SM Codex, but FW have had Graviton weapons for ages.
I don't have any of the FW books; Do they use the same rules as C:SM? If not, what are their rules?
For those playing along at home, FW's graviton weapons include:
Contemptor Claw with Graviton Gun
