As of 2019-09-22 this mod is deprecated: Please use the new, fully save game compatible Groundside Firepower Pack instead

This mod makes the L-89 Halberd rifle researchable and available for players.
An optional mod file adds the Halberd and the M-28 Pilgrim shotgun to the researchable weapons as well.

Both weapons can be found in milky way weapons research projects at the very bottom.
The Halberd is fully functional in every aspect, it was only missing the research projects themselves.

Since v1.1 the frosty projects can be found directly in the zip file of the corresponding frosty-mod.

There are two versions of this mod. The primary version adds both the Halberd, while the other version makes the Halberd  and the Pilgrim available. Use only a single one of the versions at a time!


Notes regarding the M-28 Pilgrim:

The M-28 Pilgrim  had only the files needed to work as Squad-mate weapon present, a large portion of what player weapons need was missing.
Neither the Pilgrim nor its crafting recipes are properly saved by the game. That means I had to implement a workaround: You'll receive the Pilgrim crafting recipes together with the Crusader ones and vice versa. Any crafted pilgrim in the inventory will be transformed into a Rank5 version of that weapon after loading. There is no other way to remedy that problem as of now, I'm afraid.
The reason i only notice the problems w.r.t. safe files now, is that during testing i seem to have mixed up and overwritten Cora's original shotgun with rank2 of the player craft-able pilgrim -- the version i was running the save-file tests against. I'm very sorry for this. The mod should not have been released in the state it was in.

As it is now, there is no preview of the weapon appearing in the R&D screens. There is also no visible indication of the weapon in the load-out screens.
Furthermore do attachments not alter the Pilgrim's appearance in the world map, with the exception of the spare clip mods.
These weapon mods nevertheless all work as intended.

As there is no text relating to the pilgrim the game (or at least i found none referred to by Cora's shotgun), the pilgrim uses the Katana's text as default.
I might write up something and change this, once Frosty allows for localization-resource editing.

I altered the Pilgrim from Cora's original version slightly, and made it more accurate.
This also affects Cora's personal shotgun, but i don't think this is game breaking or that it will have much of an impact at all.


Compatibility Notes:
If you want to use either of these two mods together with the 'Researchable rebalance MP weapons' mod found over there or the not rebalanced version from there you need to use the appropriate compatibility patch mod found here under optional files. Otherwise one of the mods will not properly apply.
Load the compatibility patch after the other two mods (lower in the mod manager).
Use the MP_Weapons_Halberd_and_Pilgrim_compatibility_patch when you use the Halberd_and_Pilgrim mod, the MP_Weapons_and_Halberd_compatibility_patch when you use the Halberd only mod.
DO NOT USE THE COMPATIBILITY PATCHES IF YOU DO NOT USE BOTH REQUIRED MODS!
If you use the Pilgrim mod and the Andromeda Firearms Rebalanced mod, place the pilgrim mod lower in the mod manager list, otherwise the Pilgrim won't do the right damage when crafted with Beam or Grenade augments.
