## About Kastov 762 and Wz.55 Striga

### Kastov 762

Full-auto rifle with heavy per-shot impact and firm recoil that needs control to stay on target.

Apex Attachment, Kastov ARC: Experimental disruption barrel with an integrated optic. Emits an RF pulse that incapacitates infantry, cripples electronics and destabilizes vehicles. It blocks barrel attachments.

### Wz.55 Striga

Low-fire-rate SMG with best-in-class mobility and recoil control; subsonic rounds hide enemy skulls on kills.

Apex Attachment, WZ.55 Striga Rampage: Paired-frame akimbo conversion that doubles close-quarters output while keeping the platform agile. Harder to control. It blocks optic, stock, and underbarrel attachments.
