Description
Makes Uejji's Battle Rifle Pack compatible with LW2, add weapons for its Laser and Coil tiers, and adds in a new set of weapons for gunners: SAWs. These have reduced damage and ammo, but in exchange have an aim bonus, and uses the medium-long range battle rifles use.

Also modifies stats of the weapons to fit in with LW2's changes:

Environmental damage on both classes of weapons have been nerfed to fit in with LW2's standards.

To fit in with the general lowering of ammo, Battle and Marksman Rifles now only have two ammo without upgrades, since ARs only have three. SAWs have four to a cannon's five.

The Intermediate Range Table BRs, MRs, and SAWs use have been adjusted. They now kick in at maximum effectiveness close to maximum visual range, have slight penalties at point blank range, and drop off more sharply at squadsight ranges compared to sniper rifles or snapshot snipers.

Laser tier weapons, like their LW2 counterparts, will have +5 base aim. This makes Laser Marksman Rifles have only a -10 aim malus.

Plasma-tier intermediate range weapons (Battle Rifles, Marksman Rifles, and SAWs) have the special bonus of rupturing for 2 instead of 1.


Thanks
Uejji for making the base mods this mod expands upon. Hope you get back to make your official updates soon!

RealityMachina, I just subscribed to this mod a couple of days ago. I've been using the convential SAW over the cannon throughout my long war 2 campaign. This is one of my favorite mods that I have added since long war 2. I think I've been running into a couple of problems throughout the mod. I have not seen any weapons for the Battle and Marksman Rifles at all. The other problem is that the SAW in its later tiers only has two ammo and does not have any damage range. I tried shooting it, but ADVENT seems to not mind the weapon at all. Do you have any idea what's going on? Again, thank you for this wonderful mod.

This mod has worked for me for years and suddenly stopped working early this year. I have all of the required mods installed, and no other mods. It adds the SAW, but not the battle rifle or marksman rifle. Any ideas?

Does anyone have the weapons icons not showing the attachments correctly?

Would it be possible to update this for Long War of the Chosen?

Is there a version that introduces the SAWs for vanilla?
