Weapon Technology in Solar Echoes (part 4)


Today's feature will focus on an augment that can only be found on cyber-weapons: IFF. Our present-day military uses IFF (Identify Friend or Foe) technology to identify aircraft, vehicles, or forces as friendly. In Solar Echoes, cyber-weapons can benefit from this augment, which allows them to fire into combat with a greater chance of hitting your opponent. IFF removes the small cover bonus that enemies receive from any of your allies that are engaged in melee combat with them. This feature cannot work on other weapons because cyber-weapons derive their control from a mix of robotics, software, and the user's own neural input.
