MODULES AND SYSTEMS
- ENERGY SHIELD – built into every walker, absorbs incoming fire and recharges. Lasers barely get through,
bullets and blasts partly do. Mines and charges placed inside the bubble are not stopped.
- LASER DISRUPTOR – arm module, continuous deep-red beam powered by capacitors instead of ammo.
- AGL40 IMPLOSION LAUNCHER – grenades open a singularity that pulls everything in, then blows it apart.
- GRAVITY DISTORTION – back module: lifts everything around the walker into the air… and slams it down at 4 g.
(Ctrl+G / gamepad LB + D-pad right, rebindable under Settings › Controls › M.A.W.S. Sci-Fi)
- NEW: ORBITAL LASER – shoulder module: calls a deep-red beam down from orbit. Set the target on the walker map
(single point, or START and END for a sweep of up to 400 m) or with Ctrl+O, then fire with N like the rockets.
10 s warning for everyone, then 12 s of beam: whatever is inside the beam is destroyed, including buildings.
In a 40 m heat zone vehicles catch fire and trees fall, and the path burns and leaves scorched ground.
One charge per module, 3 min cooldown, recharge at a depot.
- EMP ROCKETS – fired from the rocket pod: kill night vision, holo sights and vehicle engines, and crack enemy shields.
- VEHICLE HACKING – mark a vehicle on the map: engine off, unload all weapons, full power or turn the AI crew against their own side.
The AI crew uses all of it.
Requires M.A.W.S. Dedicated server ready.
MORE TO COME
The expansion is built to grow – further sci-fi modules and systems may be added in future updates.
Ideas and wishes are welcome on the Backblast Studios Discord.

Version 1.0 - Copyright (c) 2026 Seebie90. All rights reserved, except as granted below.
This license covers the mods "M.A.W.S. - Mechanized Assault Walker System" and "M.A.W.S. Sci-Fi Expansion Pack"
for Arma Reforger ("the Mod"), including all scripts, prefabs, 3D models, textures, materials, sounds, configs,
UI layouts and other files they contain.
1. YOU MAY, WITHOUT ASKING
- Use the Mod: play it, run it on your servers, use it in your own scenarios and missions.
- Make retextures (new textures or material variants) and publish them as a separate mod, if
a) the original Mod stays a dependency - your mod contains no files of the Mod itself,
b) your description credits the author ("M.A.W.S. by Seebie90") and links to the original Mod,
c) the 3D models are not changed.
2. YOU MAY, ONLY WITH PRIOR APPROVAL
Extensions - mods that add to or change the behaviour of the Mod (new modules, weapons, loadouts, scripts that
hook into or mod its classes). Ask the author before you publish. Approval must be given in writing (for example
via Discord) and is at the author's discretion. Approved extensions keep the original Mod as a dependency and
credit the author as in section 1.
3. YOU MAY NOT
1) Reupload the Mod or any part of it - scripts, prefabs, 3D models, textures, sounds, configs or layouts, whole
or in parts, in any form (including repacks, merged mods and "fixed" or "updated" copies).
2) Modify the 3D models of the Mod or distribute modified versions of them.
3) Copy code from the Mod into your own mods, including code extracted from the published files.
4) Remove or hide the credits of the author.
5) Sell the Mod or charge for access to it or any part of it.
4. EXAMPLE CODE ON THE DOCUMENTATION SITE
The code examples on https://docs.seebie90gaming.com were written for teaching and are separate from the Mod's
code. You may use, change and publish them freely in your own projects. Credit is appreciated, not required.
This covers only the examples shown on that site, not the Mod itself.
5. THE DOCUMENTATION
You may read the documentation online and download the PDF for your personal use. You may not reproduce it in
printed form, modify its content, or republish it (in whole or in parts) on other sites or platforms. Linking to
it is welcome. Suggestions and corrections go to the author via the Discord forums.
6. OTHER TERMS
- The Bohemia Interactive Arma Reforger EULA and Workshop terms always apply in addition to this license.
- Breaking this license ends any permission granted by it; the author may request the removal of mods that
break it.
