Who Can Weapon Design Rules (WDR): All weapons made by these rules count as war-gear for purposes of equipping model. Therefore the only models that can use these weapons are those who have access to War Gear.
I.E. Characters, Veterans…
Notes:
>> Flame Template weapons: Template receives 1 shot and can not be rapid fire.
>> Round points up.
>> Missile launchers made by these rules MAY NOT fire both krag and frag or their equivalent.
>> USE LOGIC WHEN CREATING A WEAPON! <<
To use special rules on a weapon it must be of the type that the special rule came from. In other words, to make a weapon jam it must be a bullet-using weapon. To get the armor reduction rule you must be a high-energy weapon.
Order of Making a Weapon:
|

Heat weapons: Max Strength: 8 Min Strength: 4 Max AP: 1 Min AP: 5 |
2) Choose Range:
A: The range is how far the weapon can fire. To work out points for range, first decide how far you want it to shoot. Minimum Range:6". Maximum Range:48".
Points:(Range x 25%).
<< I.E. Range 12" is +3 PTS .>>
B: Flame Template: If a weapon uses the rules for flame templates it costs +3 pts.
3) Choose Strength and AP:
You may set the strength and AP of the weapon any way you choose. Use the following tables to determine cost increase.

4) Choose Special Rules:
You can choose from only the following upgrades: See VDR for point cost.
Blast (Take Twice to make ordnance)
Twin-Linked
Gattling Weapon
Weapons also receive the bonuses that they normally would receive if based off another weapon. For instance, if a heat weapon is supposed to be a plasma weapon they may over heat. Assault Cannon types also can jam. However, using these rules is optional but will affect the points cost.
