I think Plasma Guns and flamethrowers both cause terror effects, but I
don't have my rules with me to be sure.

All a Terror weapon does is cause a panic test in Regular and lower
quality units. Greens and Untrained have other things that cause panic
tests, too.

According to the rules, a DFFG is not a terror weapon (implied by
omission). In fact, being a Heavy Weapon it only has a D8 impact
against dispersed targets.

Now, a Green or Untrained is supposed to panic if see an AFV or fired
on by one, so for these low quality troops a DFFG firing at them is
already going to cause a panic test.

Let me know how it works out!
