It will definitely be a two handed weapon. But to accelerate a 0.1 kilogram bullet to a kilometer per second, much faster than I would but it makes the math easy, would require 100,000 joules. Doesn't strike me as a terrible drain.

I'd worry less about the power requirements and more about the absurd recoil such a weapon would generate, as well as the health of the rails.

Bullets weigh a significant amount more than a fraction of a kilogram, averaging about 8 grams each. Also factoring in the weight of depleted uranium, which is one of the densest materials on earth. Wrapping that up in steel casings would result in rounds weighing in at around 12-15 grams each.

LeeRoy, a kilogram is about 2.2 pounds.

EDIT: Wait, I may have read that wrong.

I was actually backwards in what I was thinking, that was actually my bad.

That would be why I have a 7 foot tall one ton android wielding such a weapon. Recoil becomes a non factor.

You mean the T-800 at this point.

Not exactly. It will look, behave, and fight extremely differently.

Also, 0.1 kilograms is 100 grams.

Eyh! Terminators, me like.

As for the railgun power problem; Well, if the character himself is a non-literal power generator, the issue of having to carry such a massive battery around dissappears.

Oh and LeeRoy; I am also impressed. Neat skill you got there.

I said I was wrong about that, give me some slack, still lightheaded from the sickness.

Also, how different is different from adaptive combat styles?

I don't want to use fusion to power it, because the terminators do, but the more I read, the more I doubt an alternative exists.

Exotic weapon idea: Polonium 210 gas grenade. Only 3 nanograms per kilogram is enough to kill half a test population.

Okay so I had to go to work, and this is kind of an old point now, but would anyone actually know how to calculate the force of a punch? I'd like to know how hard Maxwell can actually hit.

How are you going to avoid killing yourself?

Androids can't be poisoned, quite simply.

but would anyone actually know how to calculate the force of a punch?


For a (very very) rough Fermi estimation, treat a punch, like an arm held straight and then swung rotationally. Divide the arm into hand, forearm, and upper arm. Determine average distance from shoulder for each, and time it takes to connect fist with target from inline with shoulders to straight in front of him. Pi/2 (quarter circle, but I gave you radius not diameter) times distance from the shoulder of hand, forearm, and upper arm, then divided by the time to connecting, and multiplied by the the masses. Should look something like hand mass times hand velocity plus forearm mass times forearm velocity plus upper arm mass times upper arm velocity.
