	Weapons are an issue in the system. Not that they are particularly complicated, put some parts together, figure out stats, math, ???, profit. However in this case we've had trouble figuring out the math and how we want weapons to be built. So this is intended to explain what we want out of weapons and how the design should work going forward.		Weapons are an issue in the system.

	=== DC Calculation ===		==== DC Calculation ====
	The mathematical calculation determined to be the, current, best for balance is (Range + Damage) x 2 - AP + Durability. This		The mathematical calculation determined to be the, current, best for balance is (Range + Damage) x 2 - AP + Durability. This creates a number that is fair on DC before any abilities are added in comparison to the mech and scales fairly well to allow higher AP weapons to do more damage, but also to cut down on long range high damage weapons with low cost.

	=== Abilities ===		=== Abilities ===
			Abilities in this case come in two flavors Systems and Mods. The real problem with them is that it is hard to tell when to make an ability a mod or a system. This is due to the smaller canvas and the greater requirements weapons have. Many of the abilities we may need to give weapons could be sectioned out and currently, while they are in their original categories, they have been by the title of Mechanisms. Changes to the weapon that may or may not be visible, but are considered a separate category when assigning them to a Unit. The reason for this is so that you may assign these Mechanisms to the weapon themselves without needing to take up a slot on the Unit. Mechanisms should give a weapon a flavor that acts like a real weapon in some form similar to shooting with a machine gun, or a shotgun.

			==== Systems ====
			Systems are designed to show what the model can do with a visual look. These are boost that are specified and designed to help elaborate that a unit with special armor or weapons can do things. Like having a machine gun that acts like a machine gun. However this also causes some issues with freedom. We need to find the appropriate middle ground to show that a weapon is a specific type of firearm.

			==== Mods ====
			Mods on the other hand are designed to be internal changes that would not show up on the model. Normally these are changes like increased/decreased armor, special activation abilities like a Hyper Mode, or changes to the internal of the unit. Mods on a gun are an issue because it's hard to

	Once your Model is complete and ready for battle, open up the blank Datasheet that corresponds to your Unit's Core Type. This can be found by determining what kit the Unit's chest piece came from. If the chest piece is from the Alto kit, then the Core Type will be Alto. If the chest piece is from the Revernova kit, then the Core Type will be Revernova. If you have multiple chest pieces on your unit OR none at all, you may pick one that best fits your Unit.

	'''Standard Movement:''' Moving a Unit normally based on the Standard Movement stat available to its Classification. Units may rotate around on the same hex to change their Field of View at the cost of 1 Standard Movement Point. Once per Movement Phase, a Unit can rotate freely around on the same hex without having to use a Standard Movement Point. Units cannot see beneath their elevation or behind themselves unless otherwise stated. When moving up an elevation the movement costs 2 Standard Movement Points. While moving in water it costs 2 Movement Points to leave the water and 2 Movement Points to move between hexes.
