Have you ever wanted to find special loot after exploring a unique building?

Do you want to get your hands on new, sharp and shiny weaponry that'll put your stash of vanilla weapons to shame?

Have you ever wanted to show off and wield powerful unique weapons you've found?

Well now you can!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FULLY COMPATIBLE WITH SOMW AND ALL MELEE WEAPON MODS!

COMPATIBLE WITH MULTIPLAYER

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This mod adds 30+ unique weapons for you to find across Knox County , with the intention of rewarding exploration. Only one of them exists within the world, once it's gone, it's gone forever!

Each weapon is more powerful, stronger and cooler than their vanilla counterpart!

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You can find special lore-friendly weapons that are stronger and different looking to their vanilla equivalent. Over 30 unique weapons have been hand-selected across the in-game world to find. These weapons can't be found in everyday loot, they can only be found in special locations across Knox County.

**Only one of each weapon exists across the map. Once they are gone, they are gone forever!**

Even works with existing saves! Give it a go! :D

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Here are some examples of special weaponry you can get your hands across in Knox County..
