The art itself may take some time, but it -will- happen. While that's getting set up, is there a way to review the physical article and make sure there's no problems with it, so that when the art comes and it gets Wes' approval, that's that?
 
  1. What is adding 100 cm to the rifle, and do you mean 100 cm or 100 mm? Because 100 cm = 1 m, which is practically the length of an entire second rifle.
  2. On the Scalar SMG, the muzzle “velocity” is roughly 1 c.
  3. The DR between the 20 mm and the 10 mm is almost identical … are you sure you need one and the other? Seriously, they seem to overlap entirely.
  4. I’m pretty sure I rejected the 8 gauge ammunition. That rejection stands, especially since it makes damage ratings using an unapproved system.
  5. How do you actually switch the weapon over between solid and energy projectiles? I.e. how do you detach the barrel and swap out the receiver. I realize that might be art-dependent, but I’d like it addressed.
  6. Because this is, in essence, a highly limited run of these weapons, and they’re not being submitted to the wider setting, I won’t harp on anything else. I would like to make sure, however, that the plans don’t spread beyond this plot without a note explicitly stating that, and/or the weapon being resubmitted in the context of a wider audience.
  7. This submission is good. It’s not as good as your medtech, but it’s good.
 
Bumping this with a two-day automatic rejection. If it's still being worked on or requires art, I can put it on hold.
