	* The inhuman power available to the wielder of a Heavy Thermic Lance is offset by the rather cumbersome weight of the device. At 15 weight units, it weighs as much as a [[Torpedo Launcher]] loaded with a Small Torpedo and just a bit less than a loaded [[Disruptor Pulse Launcher]]. As such, the Heavy Thermic Lance should only be distributed to strong soldiers who can handle it.		* The inhuman power available to the wielder of a Heavy Thermic Lance is offset by the rather cumbersome weight of the device.
