Inside the vendor in your prep-room, You'll find :
1/
M56 Smartgun Kit : This is the reason you're here. It holds all four pieces that together make up the 'Smartgun system'. It contains :
-
The M56 Combat Harness : This is your armor. It's a bit tougher than the standard M3 armor, and it is a lot lighter, allowing you to walk faster than Standards, at about the same speed as a squad leader.
-
The M56 Powerpack : This holds your ammo. It Contains 250 Bullets and can be refilled in Requisitions and your Prep-Room Vendor. Due to it's size, it must be worn in the backpack slot, meaning you cannot have a backpack as a Smartgunner.
-
The M56 Smartgun : This is the actual weapon. It can hold 50 rounds, has an impressive Rate of fire and is incompatible with all attachments except for the Barrel Charger and the Burst Fire Assembly.
-
M56 Head Mounted Sight : This acts as both nightvision goggles and a meson scanner, allowing you to see in the dark as well as see buildings behind walls. When turned on, it puts a red overlay on your screen.
Edit : The sight actually allows you to see 6 tiles, and not 7. Thank you, Jeser.
Note : You must equip
The harness and The powerpack to be able to use the Smartgun. It is
Highly Recommended That you equip the Head mounted Sight, Though.
2/
Webbing : Put this on your uniform. It provides you with 3 storage slots which are very important since you don't have a backpack.
3/
Magazine Pouch : Allows you to hold Two magazines for your secondary weapon of choice.
4/
M56 Powerpack : This is a spare Powerpack. Either put it in the dropship, Give it to Requisitions, or Give it to a Packmule Standard.
