Or I can start a game with everything researched and pick out the mini-weapons as you have described. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Thanx Krsqk http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

tbontob, yes, they have ROF 1 except in SE4 Gold (and I think in 1.49 too, though not in some earlier SE4 patches), Small Rocket Pods are fighter-only weapons. If you modded them to allow them on troops though, they would fire every ground combat round.

There are other troop weapons too under the racial techs, that this applies to. For example, organic acid weapons.

I started a game and all the small weapons are there.

It says DUCs can be used on troops and fighters

I have researched DUCs'5 and Troops2

In trying to design my troops, there are no weapons to select. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

What's going on? http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Whoa....

My notes say I can get small DUCs for my Troops if I Research fighters.

Is this true? Doesn't make a lot of sense if it is. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon6.gif

Yeah, DUC's are the exception - instead of researching Projectile Weapons and Smaller Weapons to get Small DUC's, you need to research Projectile Weapons and Fighters http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/rolleyes.gif

Thanks Ed http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

But is it the 'only' exception?
