According to the latest whispers, the Skitarri will be getting a ranged weapon called an Arc Gun, that has a good strength to take down infantry and light mech, but is also a Haywire weapon. Great weapon with huge versatility.
Please remember that these are rumors. Very early rumors at their best. I would imagine a gun like this would be rather short range, but who knows at this point.

the plasma pistol described in your previous article is not an odd looking plasma pistol. its an arc pistol. arc weapons will be available for the skitarii in both pistol and rifle. the arc rifle is rapid fire with haywire. rifle and pistol both are s6 ap5.
