Ugh more Polaron Weapons?

With the new Delta Quadrant rep, the new weapons seem to be Polaron based.
Looking at the little project background pictures.
But I also heard of Tetryon based.

Can anyone confirm there will be Tetryon based ground guns?
The Polaron ground guns are the ugliest thing I've seen, plus we already have them with Dyson rep.
Now if the rep store opens with some nice new Tetryon weapons, woot woot.
Can anyone confirm this yet, that there are Tetryon ground guns, or are they all Polaron barf?

    I just wish that these weapons had 3 mods and 2 Procs at half effectiveness, rather than 2 mods and 2 procs at double chance.

    they are all polaron

    first of all they are yellow, which is a surprising improvement

    second of all they have a plasma type proc instead of the polaron TRIBBLE

    Well at least that is an improvement.
    Shame the gun model is so darn ugly...

    Maybe Cryptic would allow us to craft our own version and allow us to select different skins for weapons, or at least different MK skins for the same weapon type.

    There are some real nice plasma mk 4 gun models vs the mk11+ eyesore.

    But darn, still no Tetryon love... those guns look fantastic, on par with fleet ones IMO.

    The polaron weapon models might, I think, be decent if that silly 'crest' were removed. That said, it is surprising - given other reps' tendency to reverse-engineer OPFOR technology - that the weapons in this project don't use the Vaadwaur models (both visually and in terms of using distinct energy 'bolts' instead of beams).
    Maybe Cryptic would allow us to craft our own version and allow us to select different skins for weapons, or at least different MK skins for the same weapon type...
    That, sir, is a capital idea, easily foldable into the current crafting system... which leaves me to ask 'why hasn't it?'.

    Agreed. On a related note, that set of models seems to have acquired an interesting visual glitch with DR (reference)...

    id like to have a full ship of beamS that has both tetryon and plasma procs, i'd shell out fortunes for that, although technically, i could use disruptor, with the fleet sci console and the omega 2 peice to have all 3 procs, but that takes too much effort
    You can easily add the plasma proc to all energy weapons simply by equipping an embassy science console.
