Pomson 6000 publicity blurb

The Pomson 6000 is a primary weapon for the Engineer.

The weapon fires unreflectable blasts of energy with no ammo consumption that, similar to those fired by the Righteous Bison, pass through enemies whilst damaging them. It also has the ability to interfere with the abilities of Medics and Spies; a blast connecting with either class will drop a Medic's Ubercharge by 10%, and a Spy's Cloak by 20% respectively.
