Posu'gelka-pattern needler

The Posu'gelka-pattern shard launcher is a pattern of needler manufactured by Lodam Armory. It was utilized by the Banished in 2560, during the post-Human-Covenant War era.

Design details
The Posu'gelka-pattern shard launcher is one of the many needler variants manufactured by the Covenant and inherited by its remnants. This design pattern of needler notably features a display on the back of the upper chassis; the display features 18 dots and functions similarly to an ammo counter. However, rather than displaying the remaining number of shards that could be fired from the magazine, it displays the corresponding number of Subanese crystals still protruding from the upper cowling.

Usage
This needler was fielded by Banished forces during the Battle for Zeta Halo in 2560. It was primarily used by Unggoy Conscripts and Ultras, Kig-Yar Freebooters, and Skirmishers.

Variants
