[WOTC] Weapon and Item Overhaul: LW SMG Plugin
About This Mod
This is a [WOTC] Weapon and Item Overhaul conversion for Long War SMG Pack – WotC (unofficial). Without this, SMGs will just be treated as any other assault rifle.
Changes
- With Bullpups taking the spot of the light-weight mobile weapon, I have designed SMGs to be the light-weight alternative to Cannons.
- SMGs are no longer Rifles. They are now their own unique weapon category. By default, SMGs are given to Rookies, any class that can use Cannons, and any non-SPARK/non-MEC Trooper class that can use GREMLINs or BITs.
- Loses +3 mobility and reduced detection radius to gain +1 mobility and native shred. Since they are light-weight weapons, though, it comes at the cost of -1 armor pierce. This means that with sustained fire, they can take down armored enemies, but until the armor is gone the weapon is not as effective.
- Updated conventional SMG model which removes the L-shaped bar from the bottom of the weapon. This can be reverted back to using the original model by changing a boolean flag in the configs.
- When using A Better Weaponry, trades the +1 mobility for Strafing Shot, which allows for a half-move after shooting.
