Flechette is a '''multiple-projectile''' type of ammunition. The amount of projectiles hitting the target is variable, and is also influenced by the failure threshold; lower scores mean less chances to hit, and higher scores mean higher chances to hit.

Flechette is a '''multiple-projectile''' type of ammunition, meaning that if the shot fired is a hit, this ammunition type is capable of inflicting multiple hits. CAWS flechette has the following effects:

CAWS flechette is a type of load for the special-purpose 12 gauge CAWS cartridge developed by Heckler & Koch and Olin/Winchester for use in the Heckler ＆ Koch CAWS. It is a non-conventional flechette shotgun shell.

Mazeworld overview

The variant used in Mazeworld uses 1 inch long flechettes made of tungsten, and is based on a purely theoretical load which was only mentioned in passing as a possible future plan for CAWS shell loads. For all intents and purposes, it does not exist, even as a prototype, in real life. We have included it to offer more ammunition types for the CAWS.

The above chart applies for ONE flechette, and may be multiplied by the amount of flechette that hit the target (up to 20). How to read this?

  • Available for purchase in a gun shop or a weapon shop, in retail boxes of 5 rounds (40 P$/box)
  • Value of a single round is 8 P$
  • Recoil level of this round is 3 - Normal
  • Propels up to 20 flechette per shot.

Usage notes

Flechette is a multiple-projectile type of ammunition, meaning that if the shot fired is a hit, this ammunition type is capable of inflicting multiple hits. CAWS flechette has the following effects:

  • FT-1
  • Shell contains 20 projectiles ; On a successful hit, 1d20 projectiles may hit the target.
