Black Market K-28 Lasgun

Black Market K-28 Lasgun is a unique lasgun of Tier 6 in Dune Awakening, belonging to the Weapons - Heavy Weapons category. Though the Imperium has forbidden the import of lasguns without a safety mechanism, there are other alternatives for bringing a lasgun to Arrakis. The smugglers have access to an entire offworld arsenal of lasguns that do not include the safety mechanisms put in place by the Landsraad council. Unfortunately, this unique lasgun is not one of them. It's just a regular lasgun with the serial numbers filed off.

Black Market K-28 Lasgun has multiple trading options reflecting its illicit vs practical value:

Traj Axxari

Black Market K-28 Lasgun can be sold to Traj Axxari for 16,000 Solaris - a high price reflecting the black market premium and energy weapon technology.

Ormuna Laaks

Alternatively, it can be sold to Ormuna Laaks for 8,000 Solaris - half price, likely due to the illegal nature of this weapon.

Imperial Restrictions and Smuggler Networks

FAQ

Q: Why is it "just a regular lasgun" when it's black market?
A: Smuggler disappointment - promised advanced offworld arsenal, but delivered standard weapon with only filed off serial numbers. Black market hype vs mundane reality.

Q: Does it have advantages over legal lasguns?
A: Only untraceable origin due to filed off serials. Performance is identical to standard lasgun - no safety mechanism bypass doesn't improve stats.

Q: Why does it have high power consumption without premium features?
A: Standard lasgun energy requirements aren't improved by serial number removal. Black market origin doesn't enhance efficiency - just removes traceability.

Q: Are the smugglers disappointing?
A: Definitely - advertised access to entire offworld arsenal but delivered regular mass-produced weapon. Overhyped expectations vs disappointing reality.

Q: Why does it have two different trading prices?

A: Traj Axxari (16,000) pays black market premium, while Ormuna Laaks (8,000) offers half price due to illegal weapon concerns.

Q: Is it worth it for 16,000 Solaris?
A: Probably not - standard performance for premium price. Pay extra just for untraceable origin and black market bragging rights.
