12 Gauge EMP Shells are a type of 12 Gauge shells that appeared exclusively in Fallout Tactics.
Description: Shotgun Shell designed to deliver a concentrated EMP burst to a small area.
[edit] Locations
- Shotgun EMP rounds are very effective against robotic enemies. Against personnel, however, EMP ammunition is entirely ineffective. Firing an EMP-loaded shotgun at a human or animal foe is nothing more than a waste of valuable ammunition.
- EMP shells do not become available until late in the game and tends to be somewhat more costly than most other forms of shotgun ammunition.
[edit] Behind the scenes
- Electromagnetic Pulse, commonly abbreviated to EMP, is a phenomenon generally attributed to nuclear blast effects. In its most basic description, an EMP is highly energetic pulse of electromagnetic energy. When part of a nuclear blast, this wave of electromagnetism is accompanied by a pulse of high-energy particles. Both can cause considerable damage to electronics. To humans, an EMP has no confirmed noticeable effect.
