Hey everyone! This update adds plenty of new content to the game, including special weapons and ammo types. Here are the details:
1. Shock Gun (Taser)
A non-lethal weapon that deals minimal damage but stuns the target for 2 turns.
2. Poison Arrow / Bolt
The crafting recipe can be found in Hunting magazine (requires skill: Medical 3). Striking a target inflicts poison, causing them to lose 10% HP per turn (ineffective against zombies).
3. Dragon's Breath
Special ammunition for shotguns. It targets a single enemy and sets them on fire upon impact, rendering them unable to act, dealing 10–30 HP damage per turn, and severely damaging their armor.
4. Jacketed Hollow-Point Rounds (JHP)
Available Calibers: 9mm, .45, .357, 5.56mm, 7.62mm
Offers higher damage and stopping power but weaker armor penetration. Perfect for dealing with low-armor targets (like zombies).
5. Armor-Piercing Rounds (AP)
Available Calibers: 9mm, .45, .357, 5.56mm, 7.62mm
Doubles armor penetration at the cost of a slight reduction in raw damage. Ideal for cracking high-armor targets.
6. Subsonic Rounds
Available Calibers: 9mm, .45, .357
A low-velocity ammunition. While it sacrifices some damage and armor penetration, it significantly reduces muzzle noise, helping you avoid attracting more zombies.
Developer Note: These new special weapons and ammo types add a whole new layer of strategic depth. Utilizing them wisely will give you a significant tactical advantage!
