[MOD 0.11.22] ValTech Flechette Rifle

[mngrif]

This adds a new weapon, a flechette rifle. The general idea is to balance around inventory space for firepower. A row of ammo in your inventory is roughly enough to take out 6 biter bases. It has a short range. This is an early game weapon and I created it to address the need of something to take out bases without requiring turret creeping. It unlocks with Military 2.

Pics or it didn't happen:



The idea of balancing around inventory space is something I've had for a while, and I went with a flechette rifle because all good scifi should have one. They tend to work terrible in real life, but it's fun to dream, right? "Flechette" refers to long thin needles, and usually lots of them. They work very well under water. Some of my favorite scifi that has featured them is Bungie's Marathon Infinity and Neal Stephenson's Snow Crash.

"CC BY-NC 4.0" means it can be used for any non-commercial purpose so long as it is attributed (say, a link to this thread).

Yes, of course it can be distributed in mod packs
