How do you represent Kra'Vak armour? After all, it was developed to 
protect against rail guns, but only reduces the chance of double damage.

Why? If the Class 10 Railgun don't have to buy separate ammo (and Nova 
Cannon/Waveguns certainly don't) I don't think this weapon should have
to 
either. Of course, it is very much smaller than a Wavegun (and doesn't 
risk blowing up!), so additional ammo might be needed.
