Really? Did you read the collab?I think the collab explicitly states that both sides used bullets, and absolutely no mention of other firearms (aside from the RPGs).The argument for core guns being exclusive to the military while the gangs have to use the "basic" guns is unfounded. It is much easier to build a core gun, a length of pipe with a core in one end, a trigger mechanism and a stock to hold it, than it is to build a ballistic firearm, which is quite complex as it requires many moving parts. Zachary's primary weapon, as you've seen, is a wind cannon. It is little more than a length of pipe with a wind core in one end and a means to activate it. The only moving part is the trigger, and the most complicated part is the power supply (a battery and some capacitors to make it come out as a strong pulse). A conventional gun, on the other hand, has many moving parts which have to line up exactly or it will jam, especially in an automatic weapon. The only way around that is to use a musket or similar weapon instead, which again has no moving parts other than the trigger but at the cost of a very long manual reload time.By your logic, that the gangs can't get the good weapons, means that they'll be stuck with the core weapons (simple core weapons, of course) while military will be the only ones with access to assault rifles and RPGs. The Golden Mercenaries are like the military, so there's no problem with their kit, but you must be careful to not break the world you have made.

No no no no.

These guns don't work like earth guns either. Remember what you quoted from the OOC OP? How they use a fire core's energy to propel a bullet forward? How HARD could that be to make? I merely said that it wasn't shooting little bolts of fire, but rather, used the explosive energy of that fire to shoot the ballistic rounds. It's not that hard. Plasma rifles are the regular norm, and they are MUCH harder to make since they require core fusion to create plasma. On top of that, if you found a fire core, put it in a waterbottle, filled it up with bullets on top, and then activated bursts of the fire core's energy...

Oh no! An assault rifle!
