📋 About This Mod

An apocryphal collection of new weapons and equipment designed to be extrapolations on existing weapons or using new features that would be lore-adjacent. I've done my best to keep this within YAML/YAW balance. Updates with new weapons will come whenever I get around to it.

Assault Rifle - We have light, medium, and heavy rifles already, why not one a bit bigger?

Chainguns (Light, medium, heavy) - Very rapidly firing autocannons with high damage, but abysmal accuracy and heat generation.

Coilguns (Light, medium, heavy) - A gauss and a rifle had a baby. This is the result. Huge, very heavy, extremely high damage weapons with an extremely long cooldown. These are unique in having a short charge-up before firing. Similar size to YAW's artillery.

Burst-Fire Coilguns (Light, medium, heavy) - Similar to normal coilguns except firing a short burst. Higher DPS, but accuracy starts being a concern. Best at medium range.

Crossbow IV missile system - An unguided version of the Arrow IV missile system, that's direct fire. Yes, I made an Arrow IV into an SRM.

Crossbow V missile system - Later version of the IV, retrofit with a laser guidance system. Will fly toward whatever is under your crosshair.

Dagger SRMs (2, 4, 6) - Advanced SRM systems that are larger and heavier, but with higher damage, and are laser guided.

Dagger LRMs (5, 10, 15, 20) - Advanced LRM systems that are larger and heavier, but higher damage, longer range, and more accurate. Laser guided, with no minimum range.

LRM-CF (5, 10, 15, 20) - Continuous fire LRMs. These fire one missile at a time, at the same overall rate as other LRM systems. More controllable and more accurate, at the cost of being vulnerable to AMS systems.

PPC-BF - A PPC rebuilt to fire a 3 round burst. Slightly higher DPS, but no longer pinpoint accurate.

XL Jump Jets (Class 1, 2, 3, 4, 5) - Double the size, and 2. 5x the weight of normal jump jets, but much higher thrust and nearly double the burn time.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since this mod adds new mechanics, test it in a creative world first to see how the weapons behave before using them in survival.
