Modifying Weapon damage

Unread post by dragonfett »

Is there any way in Rifts to modify weapon range, damage, or anything along those lines?

Do you mean like modifying the weapon by using magic, weapon-smithing or some form of alien technology?

Weapon Smithing, increasing range, damage, number of shots that a weapon can get out of an e-clip, stuff like that.

On the tech level with energy weapons remember range, damage, payload. To increase one it's going to affect the others.
There should be a specific sub-forum of the Rifts forum dedicated to the only hope for salvation of the human race, the Coalition States.

Yeah, I know, I just want to know if there is any rules on altering those values, and if so, where they can be found.

Nope.

You could modify HU rules, though, if you want.
