Edjia Battle rifle(Gartagens)

- Could you put it in the standard weapon template?
- YE 34 should be linked.
- Could you use a transparent background for the art please?
- There is a red link at the bottom.
- Rifles, in general, should be PDR 3. See Damage Rating.
 
- Article is now in standard template
- YE 34 is now linked.
- Transparent Background: I do not know how I am not that artsy, no very savvy on using art programs.
- Red link is now gone from the article.
- Rifles being PDR 3 I must cry that statement is false, citing this : https://wiki.stararmy.com/doku.php?id=nm ... beam_rifle

With the explanation that this weapon is not an Assault Rifle it is a Battle rifle It is a larger weapon with that use more powerful rounds then its smaller cousins. However I am not unreasonable and I have knocked down the PDR of the weapon to be PDR 4

Summary
Damage Rating as mentioned by Wes..
** Short description of the issue. If a longer explanation is needed, put it in Notes.

Status: Pending

Notes
Referencing the NMX rifle does not assist your arguement. If the DR is changed to PDR 3 as Wes requested, I will approve this article.

4. It is not a valid argument to justify overpowered or questionable abilities on your submission by…
  • pointing to an older submission, especially one of a different faction
  • promising in-universe restrictions on use or availability

I intend to finish this review by:PENDING YOUR CHANGES.
