Armies of the Fifth Frontier War errata

Perkanis83

Banded Mongoose
Thought I should start this here

Found two things so far
1, Zhodani field protection suits Page 60 have no protection value, I assume this is a oversight
2, The "tinker" missile system on page 55 is stated to have multiple tubes available but it has no magazine capacity, once again I assume this is a oversight.
3, the compact Gaus pistol on page 49 have a linger range then the normal size one,

Found a bunch of things lacking and unappealing, mostly with the sword world’s equipment. Now I should preface this that i understand the cultural impact on thier equipment, however, I don’t think that is enough of an excuse due to how harshly this impact their stuff In play, they shouldn’t be so inflexible that they are ineffective entirely so.

P53-54, Their rifles are ineffective against imperial targets, if they are to remain semi automatic with them they should be heavy rifles as they are described as in their info section, or have some trick beyond a simple AP 3 from ammo. So I’d suggest some inspiration form their sniper rifle to give their essential small arms that little extra oomf. Additionally there’s not much info on what their support weapon is, I assume it’s a machine gun, but, I don’t know how deep this cultural influence goes either way, I believe the space taken up on the weapon table is wasted listing 2 weapons which are largely identical besides range, the rifle and the carbine respectively.

P60, Sword worlds armour the jaeger armour specifically, another item lacking distinction especially since its is practically an over priced TL10 Cloth in its current form, I suggest making it distinct by incorporating some extra armour, bringing it to 10 armour total and either rad protection or some kind of stealth, no more that 20 rad however, it would essentially be an up armoured combat environment suit.

I think these changes would make them atleast competitive and worthwhile threats.
 
P56 CCLS weapons lack their usual Auto 2 trait seeded in prior books
P46 Assassin drones lack information on their intended damage values, I suggest adding it to the table of writing in the description what it’s suppose to be comparable to.
