Production Group IV - The 'Off-Catalog'.

All gear included in this pack is accessible to every pilot, starting at LL0:

• 19 GMS Weapons - The titular T-4 ‘Off-Catalog’ Line: it fills some gaps in the GMS repertoire and offers high-power options with impactful drawbacks that must be played around.
• 9 GMS Systems - A Shield, A Grenade, Some Mods, Invade Options, and Invisibility & Reaction counterplay.
• 2 GMS Chassis Configurations - A brand new type of System that overhauls a small part of the frame it's equipped on.
• 5 Tags/Rules - Including the show-stopping ‘Recoil’ tag, the defensive and tricky ‘Decay’ tag, and the ‘Preceding’ state - which can allow effects to grant different benefits/penalties against characters who have already acted.

Background Info/Design Goals

This expansion is intended for players already familiar with Lancer - specifically those who have grown tired of the build constraints of lower levels, or those who would like some more variety in weapon playstyles. This expansion cannot and does not attempt to fix the structural issues that cause those feelings. It's what it claims to be: more content to fill the content void, just a little while longer. 

Originally, I'd made some tags, but then wanted to populate them in more places than just bespoke manufacturers and licenses - hence, GMS gear. There are some things to fill out the GMS repertoire, and some stuff that I wanted to include for my own sake.

Monetary & Legal

This mini-expansion is and will always be free. I've opened up the option for monetary tips, but please only do so if you have the means.
