Mod: New Generation Weapons — Lanius sphenocercus — Mobile Squad Standard Weapon
Tius — an unknown Midworld. After the MegaCorp Alliance thoroughly exploited and drained its remaining commercial value, the discontented populace rose in rebellion. The Lanius sphenocercus was formed as a special operations unit specifically tasked with confronting the Alliance's planetary surface colonial forces.
With the vast majority of the planet's resources already depleted — oxygen, water, and even ideology all in scarce supply — the Lanius sphenocercus Mobile Squad, as the last survivors of Tius, successfully infiltrated the Empire's Psychic Gate and fled to the RimWorld. Their purpose: to orchestrate the most complete subversion of the MegaCorp Alliance — and even the Empire itself.

The standard weapons of the Lanius sphenocercus Mobile Squad uniformly utilize the 12.7×55mm rifle cartridge. The ammunition has undergone specialized modification to address a variety of combat scenarios.

Regarding the 12.7×55mm Rifle Cartridge Types:
RSNP (Razor Spike Needle Point)
12.7×55mm rifle cartridge — Armor-Piercing Specialized Round.
By replicating Old Earth-era Armor-Piercing Discarding Sabot (APDS) technology restored by corporations, the Lanius sphenocercus compressed manufacturing costs while maintaining portability. The projectile body was redesigned into a specialized steel spike. This round offers high armor penetration performance. Additionally, due to special material modification using corporate technology, this round possesses high muzzle velocity. However, due to its specialization in penetration enhancement, its terminal effect is inferior to comparable small-caliber ammunition.
(Crafting materials: Steel, Uranium)
RIP (Rapid Incendiary Projectile)
12.7×55mm rifle cartridge — Anti-Formation Specialized Round.
Due to the unsatisfactory terminal effect of the RSNP, the Lanius sphenocercus attempted reverse engineering of captured corporate standard ammunition. The RIP round is one of the results of this effort. This round modifies the RSNP projectile body by adding pre-scored surface grooves and incorporating a specialized fragmentation structure. Upon impact, it fragments into multiple projectiles to inflict layered damage.
(Crafting materials: Steel, Plasteel, Uranium)
APHE (Armor Piercing High Explosive)
12.7×55mm rifle cartridge — Special Purpose Round.
The APHE round is also a product of reverse engineering captured corporate standard ammunition. By modifying the RSNP projectile body, this round trades reduced penetration for a high-explosive filler. It is designed to engage corporate light armored targets and field fortifications, providing enhanced fire support for the Mobile Squad in close-quarters operations.
(Crafting materials: Steel, FSX)
SEMP (Strong Electromagnetic Pulse)
12.7×55mm rifle cartridge — Electromagnetic Suppression Round.
Through reverse engineering captured corporate special-purpose munitions, the Lanius sphenocercus adapted their standard weapons to accommodate the 12.7×55mm format for this high-intensity electromagnetic pulse round.
(Crafting materials: Steel, Plasteel, Uranium, ComponentIndustrial)
SAP (Smart Armor Piercing)
12.7×55mm rifle cartridge — Long-Range Suppression Round.
As a special munition of the MegaCorp Alliance's planetary surface colonial forces, the SAP round incorporates specialized electronic components, featuring a custom EMP-assisted fuze and trajectory correction functionality. It offers strong suppression capability against lightly armored targets.
The Lanius sphenocercus attempted to reverse engineer this round, but ultimately failed. Nevertheless, for reasons unknown, this ammunition type has been fielded within the Mobile Squad's standard weapon inventory.
