Rheon Carbines were the standard Sontaran side-arm from at least 2370. Rheon Carbines were wand-like weapons that emitted charged particles to kill their enemies. The weapon also had some capacity to penetrate armor. The carbine could be set to stun as well as kill. A safety catch was set into the butt of the weapon to prevent the carbine from being accidentally discharged. The Rutan Host could resist the effects of a single weapon's fire for a certain amount of time, but multiple bursts would defeat the Rutan's defenses. (MA: Lords of the Storm, NA: Shakedown)
