Forum:Energy/Conventional weaponary

I've noticed something as of late on Halo Fanon. People are, more and more, throwing down conventional weapons, like fire arms and missiles and also the more popular halo energy weapons of particle accelerators and plasma tech in favour of more and more outlandish energy weapons. Am i the only one who continues to focus mostly on either using/improving plasma technology or conventional warheads for Halo Fanon anymore? While admitantly, I've got EMP, pulse and Ion weapons in the works, these come hand in hand with the technology required to make Plasma weapons functional.
