[b]Tactical Charge Weapons[/b]
A more realistic redesign of the charge weapons with added tactical abilities.
[hr]
The initial idea behind this mod was to create [b]more realistic charge weapons[/b] with high quality textures. Something that looks functional with real life tactical attachments. A more realistic alternative to Vanilla Expanded charge weapons.
Weapons are balanced around vanilla and vanilla expanded weapons with slight (10-20%) stat increase. Mostly fire rates and reload speeds. They are considered endgame weapons and require Advanced Fabrication to be unlocked along with their own research.
Each weapon also has an [b]unique ability[/b] to make the gameplay tactical as well. Abilities can be manually activated. They have different effects, cooldowns, seperate aim&reload times and different ranges depending on the ability.
These abilities open up many situations with new tactical options, giving you control over engagements and make every weapon useful even in endgame.

-Weapons use custom sounds, icons and projectiles.
-The weapons can individually be researched in their own research tab after unlocking Advanced Fabrication.
-The weapons can be crafted at the Fabrication bench.
-Spacer tech Enemies will sometimes arrive with these weapons equipped. They will use the abilities against you. Weapons can be found as high tier loot.
-The mod is very lite and should be safe to install and remove during gameplay.
-Integrated patch for Muzzle Flash. [url=https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2917732219]https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2917732219[/url]

[b]FAQ[/b]
[b]Is this compatible with CE[/b]: No. I don't use CE. These weapons were purposefully crafted to be vanilla friendly with their own abilities.
[b]These seem OP?[/b]: Generally the weapons are balanced for endgame and cost alot to craft, but situationally with the correct loadout, the abilities are a force multiplier. For example Heavy rifles with its EMP shots will create alot of maneuver room and open up options when attacking mech clusters and bosses, but are ineffective against large groups of soft targets. Tox cloud density is small and AOE damage is scaled down. Their purpose is to weaken and crowd control enemies. Incendiary effectiveness depends on targets fire resistance.
