About This Mod

This is a [WOTC] Weapon and Item Overhaul conversion for Long War SMG Pack - WotC (unofficial). Without this, SMGs will just be treated as any other assault rifle.

Changes

With Bullpups taking the spot of the light-weight mobile weapon, I have designed SMGs to be the light-weight alternative to Cannons.
SMGs are no longer Rifles. They are now their own unique weapon category. By default, SMGs are given to Rookies, any class that can use Cannons, and any non-SPARK/non-MEC Trooper class that can use GREMLINs or BITs.
Loses +3 mobility and reduced detection radius to gain +1 mobility and native shred. Since they are light-weight weapons, though, it comes at the cost of -2 armor pierce. This means that with sustained fire, they can take down armored enemies, but until the armor is gone the weapon is not as effective.
Updated conventional SMG model which removes the L-shaped bar from the bottom of the weapon. This can be reverted back to using the original model by changing a boolean flag in the configs.
When using A Better Weaponry, trades the +1 mobility for Strafing Shot, which allows for a half-move after shooting.

Required Mods

Compatibility

Updates all the necessary skills to allow [WOTC] Proficiency Class Pack's Marine to use the new SMG to its fullest potential.
Has configurations for [WOTC] Randomized Gatecrasher Loadouts allowing Rookies to wield SMGs
Supports single build for [WOTC] Prototype Armoury, meaning it can be used in place of Strategy Overhaul Bridge: Long War SMG Pack. Infiltration bonuses are the same as the CI Bridge.
[WotC] The MOCX Initiative Dark SMGs are not affected by this mod.
Full support for A Better Weaponry and the ADVENT SMGs it adds. **NOTE: Strafing Shot applies a mobility malus onto the soldier after it is used, so if used against Lost or Hive Rippers the soldier's mobility is STILL going to be reduced regardless of how much AP is given back to them. This is expected behavior as the bonus movement AP from Strafing Shot is very very powerful.
Fully compatible with [WOTC] SMG Bar-B-Gone (though all changes from that mod are included in this one)

Thanks

Well than ^^;;
thank you again FeartheBunnies XD

FearTheBunnies [author] 13 Jun @ 8:51pm

Yeah, this mod has the CI bridge built into it, meaning you don't need the bridge when using this mod

Kinsect 13 Jun @ 2:54pm

Got it Thanks
though I did get a warning pop up for the SMG's Strategy Overhaul Bridge ^^;;

FearTheBunnies [author] 12 Jun @ 10:18pm

This should work with both the standard SMG mod and the renamed mod

Kinsect 12 Jun @ 7:45pm

Say does this also work with the Renamed SMGs Mod (For ABBA and ABW) as well or do we not need it with this mod?

FearTheBunnies [author] 4 Mar @ 12:13pm

Yes, by default it grants the SMG to all soldiers who use GREMLINs.

i wanted to ask is this mod good to alow The Tech. Specialist from [WOTC] Proficiency Class Pack to use the smg ?

FearTheBunnies [author] 3 May, 2023 @ 9:00am

Yeah, the unofficial pack is the "normal" pack. You do not need SMG Bar-B-Gone + this mod, so you can reduce your mod count by 1.

Mae 3 May, 2023 @ 8:56am

I am, though I've also tried without it to no success. I'm using the Unofficial SMG Pack rather than the Renamed SMGs Mod, if that makes a difference.

FearTheBunnies [author] 3 May, 2023 @ 7:27am

Are you running SMG Bar-B-Gone as well?
