PharotekWizard's Regular Arsenal Weapon Pack-Partizan

“After 'WWII', human were still preparing for the next war. At that decades, CNC was not a cheap thing, therefore forged method were applied to manufacture gun components. Millions of light arms were manufactured by this method by an oriental great country and his supercountry neighborhood, at the north, to arm their army with millions of personnel. At that time, WWIII could be triggered any time with their relationship worsen. Oriental country plan to arm multiple millions of militia to defend the total war initiated by the supercountry. Their light arms need to be simplified to compensate the lack of industrial power. Hopefully, the war which could have 2 billions of population involved never take place, the weapon produced for war was therefore sealed up and ultimately armed multiple guerrillas in decades of arm trade. Guerrillas used these weapons to fight against aggressive supercountries and taught them many important lessons…“

“……students, I told these in the class is just to inform you guys, basic manufacturing lessons still important at any time…”

“Did Prof. Pharotek fake all these up?……”

“Forge a ‘forged’ piece by hammer?, suspicious.”

No matter Prof. Pharotek faked all these up or not, it's impossible for these 2300s freshman to observe the truth. They have no idea how history was be like before 2130, that's not their fault. However, the partizan or guerrilla weapons and use hammer to forge components are indeed real storied on many rimworlds.


For most low tech factions, components are rare and expensive. If you urge to gather an army, you shall get something to replace it. Forged Weapon Component is the replace. For common case, these forged components require a stamp machine to manufacture. However in rimworld, you have only manual method unless you find some machine to do your job.
Hopefully, masterful artisans are never rare in rimworld, you can always rely on them and their master-ship.
If someone ask if we can rely on these handcraft weapons, I would say you probably live no longer than this gun.


They are mostly 1980s formal weapons and participated many counter-invasion wars. When the "Last War" was triggered, their blueprints are sealed to prepare after-war production. In early space era, these weapons are also used to equip early space colony because they are easy to manufacture. They were ultimately replaced by Harbinger Rifles, but their blueprints spread, and that's why you can see them in rimworld.

Hand-made forged component are not mechanically accurate in nature, therefore the weapon use forged components are quality-free.
These weapons could not that good than vanilla weapons, but for this weapons, it was mean to be equipped at time than have extraordinary performance.












Consider the fact that these weapons have a longer history than most rimworld settlers, you can expect to see these weapons everywhere and in anyone's hand you can expect (except for tribal guys I think).
1980s weapons use cartridge we familiar, so the compatibility of CE is soon (but not for now).
If you have sharp eye to observe the grenade launcher on tripod, you can expect further relative contents with other mods.
