[eMOD] Updated Weapons 1.51 for 1.19
Elemental Forums
Updated Weapons v1.51 ( for 1.19 )
Mod Description:
This mod updates all the basic unit weapons to give special abilities to the unit that equips them. Each weapon has a different set of special abilities and the idea behind the mod is to give each weapon a kind of combat role. Most weapons gain 2 special abilities, though a couple of the weapons only have one. This mod does not effect 3 basic weapons, being the crude bow, the Karrazan and its Elemental versionm for balance purposes.This mod also does not effect the special weapons found in CoreSpecialWeapons.xml, though with some coaxing I may add them in a future release. A current list of all effected weapons are as follows:

Download and Installation:
To Download the mod, simply follow this link to the download site.
To install, simply place the folder found in the zip file into your my documents/my games/elemental/mod directory. If you are upgrading from a previous version, you will want to remove the directory before installing to ensure you have no undesired effects.
Special Note: Due to the way that Elemental currently handles weapon mods, the use of multiple weapon mods will result in undesired results. If there is another weapon mod which one would like to use with Updated Weapons, please PM me and I will see if I can make an acceptable hybrid so that one can use both.
