Marksman rifle

Ghost Union

A light skeletonized marksman platform carried by rooftop scouts. Its shallow recoil keeps moving targets visible, at the expense of the heavier impact common to other precision rifles.

Operating principle

A light skeletonized marksman platform carried by rooftop scouts. Its shallow recoil keeps moving targets visible, at the expense of the heavier impact common to other precision rifles.

02

Modification choices

A two-stage trigger rewards deliberate timing. A medium optic preserves target reacquisition. A cheek riser steadies the sight picture but makes rapid shoulder changes slower.

03

Engagement doctrine

Hold a measured rhythm and keep your first target in view. Useful in every Battle Royale team size, especially as the second angle in Trio. PvE support should interrupt exposed machinery before the assault moves.

04

Strengths, limits & counters

Easy corrections and fast repositioning; weaker distant pressure. Use solid cover rather than exchanging repeated open peeks.

05

Reading the specifications

Damage is one unarmored torso hit at close range; a burst rifle reports one projectile, not an entire burst. Rate is nominal cycling speed; burst pauses, charging, cooling and reloads reduce sustained output. Capacity counts projectiles, shells or charges per load. Range describes the intended engagement distance. Recoil is a 0–100 control-demand index: lower is steadier, not weaker.

06

Operators & modes

Recommended operators: MOTH, CIPHER. The displayed range is 105 metres in this fictional design. Treat it as a planning guide: sightlines, armor and movement still decide the encounter.
