An airplane is a heavier-than-air craft whose lift is generated by airflow over the wings creating a strong pressure difference. In video games, airplanes are used for travel and as a type of weaponry.
Assault Rifle refers to a basic design of a weapon that combines the abilities of older long-range rifles and the rapid fire of sub-machine guns. Common designs include the M-16, M-4, AK47 (and 74), and the L85A1.
A stationary gun that automatically shoots at targets.
A rifle with its working mechanism located in the stock.
A machine designed with the purpose of moving objects or characters vertically.
The energy force shield is a common element found in science fiction. By encasing an object in a bubble of energy, whether it be a single person or an entire city, the object is protected from its environment. Some energy shields deflect projectiles, lasers and radiation, or anything conceivable.
A grenade is an explosive device traditionally thrown by hand, but may also be propelled by a rifle or launcher.
Considered one of the most frequent and controversial implements of destruction in video games and real life, guns are devices that fire projectiles with explosive force.
Health Stations are often a sort of vending machine, operation table, med-bot or even NPC that's in place to restore the player's health.
Helicopters are flying vehicles, typically with a single large main rotor to maintain lift with a tail rotor to counter rotation induced by this main rotor. They are useful in air to ground combat as well as for quickly inserting and recovering infantry close to the front line.
Mechs (or Mecha) are humanoid-like pilot driven vehicles often depicted in media as a combat machine. Early examples of Mech/Mecha in video games are often derived from early manga and anime as well as table-top games.
The Plasma Rifle uses plasma technology firing directed energy bolts instead of projectile ammunition.
A weapon that launches rockets.
The most powerful weapon at short range. Effective against Zombies, Nazis, Demons, etc. Videogame shotguns tend to have exaggerated inaccuracy at long range- real life shotguns are still fairly accurate over a decent distance, while videogame shotguns rarely go more than fifteen feet before becoming completely ineffective.
The weapon of choice for accuracy at long distances. The sniper rifle's slow rate of fire makes it ineffective for close range combat, but its high calibre round ensures that it inflicts maximum damage against the target.
A rocket / missile that launches sub rockets / missiles
A tank is generally a heavily armoured and armed, tracked vehicle designed to be at the front of a combined forces attack.
