# Modular Weapons for Starfinder (WIP)
This document is my attempt to streamline Starfinder's Weapons, while at the same time to provide a fun way to make personalized modifications to your weapons. This content is intended to replace the existing weapons, not to be used side-by-side with them.
Everything you can see here has been designed by myself alone, and any similarities to other creations is a pure coincidence.
 — *Arkhios at the Playground.*

#### Item Level and Basic Upgrades
Each weapon has an upgradeable item level, which determines the weapon's base price, damage, and range. Each weapon also falls into one of three categories: Small, Long, or Heavy. Item Level or Effective Item Level (see below) can never be lower than 1 or higher than 20.
  
  As long as the character is proficient with a weapon's category, or a module they wish to use, they know the basics of how to upgrade a weapon of that type.
However, a character can't upgrade or modify a weapon to an Item Level or an Effective Item Level that exceeds their current character level. For example, a 2nd level character can upgrade a weapon with an Item Level 1 to Item Level 2, but not to Item Level 3 or higher.

##### Upgrading a Weapon
  Upgrading a weapon's Item Level requires 8 hours of uninterrupted work, and scrap worth equal to the difference between the weapon's current base price (according to it's Effective Item Level) and the base price of the weapon's desired Effective Item Level. For example, upgrading a 1st level Small Weapon to a 2nd level Small Weapon requires scrap worth 200 units.
  
##### Attaching a Module
Instead of upgrading a weapon, you may modify a weapon with modules. Each module you apply adjusts the weapon's Effective Item Level according to the module's description. Any modifications apply to the weapon's actual Item Level. For example, if you have an Item Level 3 Long Weapon, and you apply a Module that increases it's Effective Item Level by 2, you use the damage and range of a 3rd level Long Weapon for modifications that affect them (if any).

Attaching a module to a weapon follows the normal rules for upgrading a weapon, except the player must make a succesful skill check, with a DC of 20 + the weapon's Effective Item Level. If the check fails, they must start over.
  
The relevant skill to attach a module depends on the materials used and is subject to DM's discretion.

## Modules and Slots
All weapons come with specially crafted slots, that can be used to alter the weapon's different functions.

##### Slots
___
* **Barrel.** Modules in this slot modify either the weapon's damage or range. Some barrel modules have an extra slot for a *Bayonet* or *Sights*.
* **Grip.** The most important function of this slot is to determine whether the weapon requires one or two hands to wield it properly. Sometimes a Grip Module may affect the weapon's range as well.
* **Receiver.** Receiver slot is used to determine the weapon's damage type, such as whether it uses kinetic or energy ammunition. A receiver always comes with an extra slot for a *Magazine*, which affect the maximum quantity of the weapon's ammunition.
* **Bayonet.** Available only on specific barrels, a bayonet makes it possible to use a ranged weapon as a melee weapon, based on the bayonet module's description.
* **Magazine.** Normally a part of the receiver, magazine determines the quantity of ammunition the weapon can have.
* **Sights.** Available only on specific barrels, sights allow the weapon's range to be increased substantially.
* **Special.** Some modules are special, often applying to multiple slots at once, and have additional restrictions based on their description.

```
```

##### Melee Weapons

A melee weapon has no Range. Instead, it has Reach, which is by default 5 feet. When buying, selling, upgrading, or modifying a melee weapon, it's damage die is one step lower (minimum 1d3), according to it's category and item level. Likewise, it's price is halved.

As a melee weapon, it doesn't have the Barrel or Receiver slots. However, if a Module has the sole effect of adjusting the weapon's damage, you can use it for Melee Weapon as normal. If a module has the sole effect of increasing the weapon's range, it increases the melee weapon's reach by 5 feet increments per module, up to 15 feet reach.

##### Ordinary and Extraordinary Damage
All weapons deal ordinary damage by default. Whoever designed the weapon chooses the damage type from the list below. If a PC creates a weapon from scratch, they choose the damage type.

Ordinary damage types are free, and do not count in regards to the weapon's Item Level. However, extraordinary damage types are more difficult to produce and require a certain level of skill. Thus, extraordinary damage types increase the weapon's Item Level depending on their type. Extraordinary energy damage increases the weapon's Item Level by four, while Extraordinary Kinetic Damage increases the weapon's Item Level by two.
