You can post OOC chat here.

A latch system to quickly and securely mount weapon accessories. Removing or attaching an accessory is an action.

Targets must make a Vigor roll (at −2 with a raise) or be Stunned (see Savage Worlds).

When beyond 4” (8 yards) from shooter, subtract two from Notice rolls to hear firing.

Smoke grenades fill an area with a thick smoke which obstructs vision (−4). Smoke lasts for d6 rounds, plus 5 additional rounds in enclosed spaces. Smoke grenades do no damage.

This weapon requires a battery to function. Sidearms and one handed weapons require a Battery Pack (or Medium Battery). Longarms Require a Power Pack (or Large Battery).

Reduce the Recoil Penalty by one point.

−4 penalty to detect the weapon with magnetic detectors.

These weapons are strictly controlled. Possession of one of these weapons will incur significant legal proceedings. Black market purchases are 20× the listed price.

This gas affects anyone in the template it is deployed in (such as the MBT of a Knockout Gas Grenade) and will linger in enclosed spaces for 1d4 rounds. Anyone who does not evade it must make an immediate Vigor roll. Failure means the character is Distracted, Incapacitated, and Unconscious for 2d6 h...

The weapon can be fired vertically in an arc over obstructions. Firing indirect applies a −2 to the shooting roll but it may be assisted by another player that has line of sight on the target using a Notice or Shooting roll.

Coilguns, rail guns, and Gauss weapons, they all fire tungsten spikes at extraordinary speeds, capable of penetrating thick armor at very long ranges.

This reduces the visible signature of firearms by cooling the exiting burning gasses. Require Notice checks to spot firing location.

An intense burst of light that blinds anyone in a Small Blast Template. Victims in that area must make an immediate Vigor roll. Failure inflicts −4 to all rolls requiring sight. Success reduces the penalty to −2. A raise negates the penalty. Victims get a free action Vigor roll and the end of their ...

Victims make a Smarts roll (−2 with a raise on the attack) to resist becoming both Distracted and Vulnerable until the end of their next turn.

May be used on foes in adjacent squares like a pistol.

Conceal is a modifier to the Notice roll for others to spot and locate. A negative number means the weapon is more difficult to locate.

Increase Notice penalty to spot the weapon by −2 when collapsed. Requires one action to collapse or expand the weapon.

The weapon will not fire unless the correct person is holding the grip and the right TAP is connected to the weapon. A Hacking (Edit) roll can disable this feature.

I’m ok with however it shakes out. If it would be easier we could change it to just glows for any magic (cuz he hates all equally). I thought it’d be more thematic for magic he can destroy (evil), kind of like a magical pavlov’s axe.

It might be more interesting to mak3it just glow for evil magic users than someone intending to use magic for evil. 1) Unlijeky, but it could pick up on someone evil who has seen the err of his or her ways 2) Some evils are worse than others.
