Faction: Neshaten
FM Approved Yet? (Yes; Kyle, 7:28 PM GMT 04/02/14)
Faction requires art? (Yes)

For Reviewers:
Contains Unapproved Sub-Articles? (No)
Contains New art? (No)
Previously Submitted? (No)

Notes:

This is supposed to be the standard issue service pistol for Neshaten personnel. Its heavier on the damage then some pistols but lacks effectiveness outside of close quarters combat. I think this fits well with the Neshaten combat style which seems to be mostly up close and personal.

The mechanics are slightly differant from "standard" laser gun technologies, but I cant personally stand starwars type projectiles that you can easily defect/dodge if you have decent reflexes. Therefore for this c is definately equal to 300000000.
 
Isn't the range extreme for a pistol? Consider the ranges of real pistols. Also, any chance of an image? It says the faction requires art and there is none.
 
Doesn't exactly comply with the weapon template. Thought that was a requirement these days. No mention of recoil or discharge characteristics (visible or invisible beam, etc.) Doesn't say who makes it, either.

@Zain Snowpaw: I notice that there's been a little progress in the pistol's article, that it's been switched to the weapon template. Though, that's from a bit back - any interest still in this one?
Click to expand...

Im still interested definately, I still have Ideas I want to get out there on Neshaten Mechanics. Unfortunately my college work schedule is piling on and I won't be able to complete this until Easter. Hopefully I can sort everything out at that point. Though I've somewhat forgotten the protocols on writing wiki stuff so itll take a bit of time to read up on it again.

Sorry for the trouble =P, Ill be back and rowdy as ever soon enough.
 
Any updates on this?
 
Phew... First time ive been on in a month or so.
I have exams until the 23rd. so i should be back between the 24th and 26th of June.
If anyone can complete this before me then feel free. Though if its still waiting once my exams are over I'll come right back to fix it up.

Many Apologies
Espo
 
Ok. Months behind schedule, i have finally created a preliminary article for both the pistol and the ammo. A few things have changed and hopefully the idea is somewhat more realistic then I originally made it.

Notes: I dont expect this to be approved in its current state as i havent done anything like this in months. I do however welcome whatever critisism you can give me.


P.S. Should I submit the power pack as a separate entry?

One month down the line and still waiting for a review on this. I need to know whether I'm doing this right before I start on other related articles.

*prods the review team with a pokey stick*
 
It was my impression we were waiting on art.

Suggested changes:
  1. Change "clip" to "battery" or "battery magazine."
  2. Add the required link to the the damage rating guide.
 
Ah. Ok. I have a couple of ideas about how to make it look though im not the best artist. Ill do what I can. Might take a couple days though. I merely thought it had been forgotten. :P
 
Nah it hadn't, I didn't put up a review since I was involved in helping you and felt it would be a conflict of interest if I did =)
