Heat Weapon - Prop Design [Grand Space Opera: Light Age challenge]

Working as an attachment to the chest holster, this weapon functions similar to a flamethrower. By igniting the fuel that is released from the canisters, this weapon can deliver some intense short to mid-range damage.

There is an emergency fuel reservoir tank attached directly to the weapon which activates in case of damage to primary fuel tanks, allowing the user to escape the battle with some cover. The emergency tank does not have the same power or range to help conserve the smaller supply of fuel.
