No, it was and is not my intention to reject the article. If that were the case, I would have done so already. The reason why I gave so little information was because I could not decide on what direction was best to go for this submission, and was stuck trying to figure out what to do with it.
Since you're choosing to go with this as a tech article that will act as a central hub page, you'll still need to trim it down since a lot of the stuff here is only relevant to actual weapons. I suggest you get rid of the nomenclature and only have that on the actual weapons. Regarding its role, just say "Multipurpose". You can also get rid of the damage output as well, since that will go on the individual weapon articles. As for the muzzle flash and beam appearance, you've marked it as an infrared laser. This means that the beam will either be invisible, or appear as red, depending on how much visible red light there is in the mix. If you want blue, go with a visible light based laser that's actually blue. The pulsed beam will also have the same appearance if the environment is foggy or dusty of course.
Effective range, rate of fire and recoil should also be removed since they're not relevant in the tech article. With its energy source though, you can state that it's modular, and can be fed off of a variety of things such as batteries, capacitors or directly from some generator/reactor. The capacity can go along with the entire 'Weapon Mechanisms' section. Once you're done with those, I can begin addressing the sub-articles.
