Lancer: Melee Plus

They say you shouldn't bring a knife to a gunfight, but - just hear me out here - what if the knife was a 12 foot long superheated sword wielded by a 60 ton mech?

Lancer: Melee Plus expands on Lancer's weapon types by splitting melee weapons into three distinct new categories, and each with a new talent tree to match:

• Blade weapons, encompassing swords, axes, and other forms of sharpened steel, can be used with the Champion talent, allowing a pilot to meet their enemies blow for blow with targeted strikes.
• Impact weapons, brutal tools-turned-weapons like hammers and fists that batter foes, can be empowered by the Shock Unit talent to leverage a pilot's kinetic ferocity to bully foes around the battlefield.
• Lances, weapons of war, spears and pikes, that jab and puncture with great precision, are exemplified through the Pikeman talent, taken by firm-footed pilots who command the field with their threatening reach.

This supplement will be referenced and expanded upon in future releases!
