A flamethrower or flame projector was a weapon which fired a burning stream of liquid or gas. They were useful in close-quarters combat and attacks against caves and bunkers. They were also effective in boarding operations.

The blaster rifle, a more powerful version of the standard blaster, is among the most common military and security weapons in the galaxy. These weapons are preferred by soldiers and other combat personnel because they are more lethal then the standard blasters, yet compact and easy to use. The most efficient blaster rifles have an optimum range of 100 meters and a maximum range of 300 meters, nearly three times the rage of a blaster pistol. Such weapons use power packs with enough energy for 100 rounds. They also have numerous power settings, and can alternate between semi-automatic and fully automatic fire.

Significantly more powerful than the standard blaster rifle, the BlasTech T-21 light repeating blaster is the most deadly Imperial blaster that can be transported and fired by one soldier. While the T-21's standard power packs supply only enough energy for twenty-five shots, its separate continuous-feed power generator gives the weapon potentially unlimited fire capability, although the generator's low cooling capacity in turn limits the fire rate to once per second. The weapon, its belt-carried tripod, and the twenty-kilogram backpack generator can be set up and made operational in less than thirty seconds. While the blaster can be fired two-handed by a moving soldier, the light tripod offers improved accuracy. The tripod can be fully extended for instances when the T-21 is to be used as a weapon emplacement but a partially extended position is superb for sniper attacks, allowing the gunner to take advantage of the T-21's maximum range of three hundred meters.
