−	The final weapon type I will go over is the projectile weapon type. These weapons shoot a projectile forward a distance. The range greatly varies on this weapon, and they can be found in all damage types except for laser. These are the most common weapon type, and thus the most widely used. It is fairly simple to use, as you just aim at an enemy and fire, without having to worry about the enemy flying too close to you. This weapon type typically does not let you stay out of range of enemies, but does a larger amount of damage then things such as ~~mag cannons~~. Weapons to look for of this type are ~~pulse guns~~, ~~blue bullets~~, ~~invertoblasts~~, and ~~pulse shotguns~~.	+	The final weapon type I will go over is the projectile weapon type.

 A third weapon type used at lower levels is the missile type weapons such as MagCannons. These weapons shoot projectiles rather then lasers at your enemy. This means that if the enemy is intelligent, it can dodge these. However, these projectiles will turn towards your target and follow it during its flight. This makes it much easier for them to hit your target. This weapon also has another useful quality. If you are moving away from an enemy, and that same enemy is moving towards you, the MagCannon will have an increased range. This allows you to easily keep out of range of enemies while still hitting them yourself.
-There are two damage types that you can get at lower levels for this type of weapon. The two are energy and heat. The heat damage weapon is slightly more expensive, but not excessively so, and only available in [[Lavanite]]. This weapon is the fire cannon. It shoots three seeking projectiles towards the target at good range. The other damage type is covered by the mag cannon I, II, and III. These each shoot one seeking projectile at large range towards the target. While the mag cannons do more damage, the fire cannon must be considered as a choice because of its weapon type; less ais are strongly resistant to fire then are to energy.

 The other weapon is much more expensive, costing over 100mil and being bought from players only, but somewhat better. It is the [[weapons|Mzungu Trading Defense]]. This weapon also has decent range, damage, and is 100% tracking. The major difference is that it is mining damage. As you progress throughout the game, you will find that fewer ais have resistances to mining damage as do resistance to laser damage. This can play to your favour, as less resistance means greater damage. An example of a lower level ai that is even weak to mining is the serenity, a red and black ship that looks like a boomerang. The strategy for the use of this weapon is the same as above, solar panels, a large ship, a sun, and then hit the trigger.
-The Bule Tracking Lazer (basically a Heavy Tracking Laser+ but size 5 and purple) is available from players too.
