Half-Life: Opposing Force Hints
Shockroach
The shockroach is the standard weapon of shocktroopers. It is basically an alien unto itself that fires up to 10 bolts of electricity very rapidly. The shockroach is constantly generating electricity, so there is no need for ammo. The shockroach may work underwater, but it will kill you if you try.
