📋 About This Mod

DO NOT USE THIS MOD WITH A GAME UPDATED FOR DLC 7! IT WILL CAUSE YOUR GAME TO CRASH! A REVAMP IS ON ITS WAY!

Further expand your YAML experience and 'Mech armory with a series of new weapon systems to trash some cans with. These weapons will allow your 'Mechs to pack even more of a punch... maybe too much. They aren't balanced or lore-friendly, just designed to be fun and not-so-serious collection of weapons for you to use.

THIS MOD REQUIRES THE FOLLOWING MODS (AND THEIR DEPENDENCIES) TO FUNCTION PROPERLY: YAML, YAW, YAWC

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED: MOD OPTIONS, MECH DELIVERY, RE-BALANCED WEAPONRY

THIS MOD CAN BE RESOURCE INTENSIVE WITH SOME OF THE WEAPONS!

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

DLC 6 COMPATIBLE WITH A TWIST

With the release of DLC 6, a new field refit system for mechs has been added to MW5. What does this do exactly? Instead just making more loadouts for mechs, PGI have instead input a real-time system that swaps the weapons a mech will carry in mission based on what it has on by default. This allows mechs to carry other weapons of the same weight and size as their default loadouts on a whim. This includes modded weapons. In the case of this mod, it is no longer an unbalanced, "cheaty" mod. This is now a DIFFICULTY TWEAK.

MOD OPTION TOGGLES FOR WEAPON SPAWNS ARE NOW AVAILABLE!

PHASE ONE - MISSILE

BMs (Bombardment Missiles)

BM 40/80/120/160: The Bombardment Missiles are guided/unguided saturation launchers that fire large quantities of high-damage missiles over a large impact area. Available after 3090.

LRMs

Hellfire LRM 20/40/60/80 Stream: High payload warheads attached to a slightly faster missile platform, these LRMs were designed by the IS specifically to bite back at the Clans. Available after 3057. Uses Hellfire LRM Stream ammo.

LRM 40/60/80/100: Ripped straight off of the various LRM carriers used within the IS as a stopgap until more powerful systems could be developed, these systems are heavy and unwieldy but provide much needed firepower. The Clans eventually adapted versions for themselves. Available after 3039 in both IS and Clan versions.

Thunder LRM 5/10/15/20/40/60/80/100: Thunder LRMs have a slower delivery system, but an increased payload for long-range top-down saturation strikes. Available after 3043.
