Overview
Historically the Artemis IV Fire Control System was introduced in 2598.
Technically it's a missile guidance system.
Effect
- improves the grouping size of LRM and SRM volleys.
- improves the lock-on-time and tracking strength of LRMs.
- Does not work on indirectly fired missiles. Line of sight to target must be present.
- does NOT add guidance to SRMs.
- is not available for Streak SRM.
- Does not stack withNARC beacon.
Artemis:
- makes use of its own (and sure more expensive) ammunition.
- can be applied to all standard LRM and SRM launchers.
- capable weapons will take up one extra Critical Slot and weigh 1 ton more than usual.
Upgrade
- Mechlab Upgrade panel has an Artemis category with two options: Remove / Buy.
- The Artemis category will only show up if the ‘Mech does have Missile Hardpoints.
- Ability to select the upgrade will depend on availability of sufficient Critical Slots and tonnage.
- Changing options will automatically upgrade/downgrade any existing eligible Missile Weapon and swap any eligible missile ammo to the proper type.
- Price of the upgrade includes cost of the upgrade itself plus cost of the ammo (if there wasn't enough in the inventory). Base price is 750,000 CB to install, 500,000 CB to remove the system.
- Mechlab 'Loadout' equip list will only show up Artemis eligible versions of weapons and ammo if the upgrade is installed
