I think it's a matter of interpretation (on getting slots back), see the following that made me think you can:
Arsenal, pg. 129, right col, "Removing a Modification": QUOTE "A modification can be removed to get back the slots it took up and..." Coupled with Arsenal, pg. 148, left col, "Modifications vs. Accessories" QUOTE "If an off-the-rack weapon comes with certain upgrades....it is assumed that those upgrades are modifications instead of accessories" ..granted they don't count towards the 6-slot limit, BUT it seems if you remove them, it falls back to the pg. 129 bit there... ...as for the MGL-6...yeah burst fire would be cool there too, too bad the clip is only 6 rounds though... I actually used that one as an underbarrel weapon for an Ares Alpha...that way you got a SA grenade launcher with it!!! So you can shoot twice (two shots, one shot + one grenade, two grenades)!! [I also snuck it unto an assault shotgun for some fun too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ] @Knasser: I'll try and send you an updated Word file either this evening or tomorrow night. Thanks again for hosting them!!! |

Grenade Launcher: Grenade SA/BF 12© 10F 8640Y Smartlink w/skinlink and airburst link; grenades are: 10P -2AP -2/m This is an: ArmTech MGL-12 --Firing Selection [4 SLOTS]: Burst Fire, 4000Y --Smartlink [1 SLOT], 2000Y --Airburst Link, 500Y --Skinlink [1 SLOT], 50Y --High Explosive Grenades, 90Y -somewhat of a stretch, but a great idea (thanks to Cadmus for the BF idea on this one!!!) -raining explosive death…. with style!!! ----------------------------------------- LASTLY, two more fun ones…with a different character in mind (and an obvious nod and some declared poetic license): Ebony 5P -5AP SA RC: 1 18© 14F 4200Y Smartlink w/skinlink and improved range finder, and use SMG ranges This is a Colt Government 2066 {close and rather close-looking to the Colt 1911, the model the Ebony and Ivory are supposedly heavily modified from} -comes with Electronic Firing --Barrel Extension [1], 500Y {well…also include [1] extra for using a slightly larger round to get the hand-waved benefit above} --Smartlink [1] 500Y --Skinlink [1] 50Y --Improved Range Finder [1], 1000Y --Extended Clip [1], 500Y --Custom Look (Level 2) [1], 1000Y --elongated barrel, anodized aluminum finish, portrait of dark-haired Victorian woman on the brown handle --inscription: “For Tony Redgrave | By .45 Art Warksâ€? --loaded with clip of APDS rounds, 140Y ---------------------------------------- Ivory 6P -2AP SA/MB* RC: 1 18© 14F 4250Y Smartlink w/skinlink, +2 to quick draw, MB-miniburst firing mode* This is a Colt Government 2066 -comes with Electronic Firing --Reduced Weight [1], 500Y {make it easier to quick draw} --High Velocity [2], 1000Y* --Smartlink [1], 500Y --Skinlink [1], 50 Y --Extended Clip [1], 500Y --Custom Look (Level 2) [1], 1000Y --elongated barrel, bright silver finish, portrait of fair-haired Victorian woman on the brown handle --inscription: “For Tony Redgrave | By .45 Art Warksâ€? --loaded with clip of EX/EX rounds, 200Y * MB firing mode introduced. Fires two bullets instead of one (but not the 3 of burst fire) per trigger pull (otherwise just like SA, firing only takes a simple action), so it does +1DV if used (instead of the +2DV of burst fire), BUT has the recoil of SA mode due to the design to the efficient design of being rapid firing -Also NOTE, slight stretch on SLOTS to 7, due to “smallnessâ€? of Extended/Skinlink/Smartlink…. And the Custom Look extending the barrel and providing extra room…. ---------------------------------------- NOTE on the last two: for a more true to form Ebony and Ivory…. Anchored spirit or spell to give unlimited ammo, -For Ebony: SMG ranges and bonuses to hit as with a focus, and burst fire and full auto capability when magically actived... -For Ivory: bonus to quick draw and to initiative when quickdrawing it (due to magic), burst fire without recoil as the default, full auto when magically activated |

I really like the Mini-burst. Seems fairly balanced and really cool, I'd just jack up the availability and pricing on it to reflect its status as proprietary "new tech" and prevent every Tom, Dick, and Virgil from carrying them, thereby seriously reducing the level of cool.

...as for the MGL-6...yeah burst fire would be cool there too, too bad the clip is only 6 rounds though... I actually used that one as an underbarrel weapon for an Ares Alpha...that way you got a SA grenade launcher with it!!! So you can shoot twice (two shots, one shot + one grenade, two grenades)!! [I also snuck it unto an assault shotgun for some fun too (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) ] Um...mmm if your shooting at some one and empty the MGL 6, ( lets not even take into acount diffrent grenade types (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) But they do have some containing good old Willie-Pete) and your still in trouble I think theirs large problem then the ammo consumption of the burst fire mod (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) and you could always extend the clip hehe. Remember its one of those tacticle weapons heheh, using it means theirs a whole lot of targets or some very large ones hehe. |
