This mod is designed to allow your settlers to build weapons and ammunition for your settlement in an immersive and balanced way. This mod includes all non-dlc baseball ballistic weapons and will be expanded to include more weapons in the future! All recipes are based on the units of their DLC counterparts and should conform to natural game balance.

The workstation itself can be found in Settlement Production -> Ballistic Industries
