EXPEDITION MEDICAL REPORT

DIRECTOR: DR. BRUCE ISAMAN

SUMMARY OF FINDINGS:

After studying injuries gained from weapons fire from the constructs, I have determined it is almost identical to standard laser arcs from the average Nanostrasen issue laser rifle. The 'energy' fired from their weapons is able to cause second- to third-degree burns. Under sustained fire, fourth degree burns are likely. Silver sulfadiazine is still suitable for treating the wounds. The energy fire does not cause bleeding as the wounds become cauterized almost immediately.

No physical injuries were gained apart from those engaging the constructions in melee, standard bruising and injuries occurred. Those engaged by the floating drone constructs were subject to brief periods of shock, causing collapse and stiffness.

Interestingly, the energy fired at the crew appears to be slightly different in nature from stun and laser shots. They are noticeably quieter, and upon impact, do not cause the same type of hissing sound, rather, the burns seem to have more in common with gas and flame burns than with light-wave burns caused by lasers.

There does not seem to be any need for specialized medicine in this case, though their weapons are debilitating, the remedies are unspecial.

Recommendations

• Increased supplies of burn treatment
  
• Heat-resistant armour
