SPECIAL FEATURES

• Detonating Shell
• Modifiable Slug Cores
• Bio-Metric Locking System
• Auto-Targeting Link

Strengths:

• Detonating Shell: Due to possessing a hollowed-out core, all slug variants for the KS-01 are constructed with a small, yet powerful detonation charge that ignites upon impact, allowing the slugs to penetrate flesh with ease and even low-medium grade armor. This allows maximized effects with shrapnel and/or whatever substance the slug core was filled with.
• Modifiable Slug Cores: Alongside the detonation charge within the core, the slugs can be filled with offensive substances such as toxins, poisons, and various forms of biological warfare. Some slugs are even capable of housing Kascalion's lethal toxin known as Devil Lion's Cure. This makes the KS-01 highly versatile for the situations it will find itself in.
• Bio-Metric Locking System: As with most Imperial gear, the KS-01 possesses a locking system that prevents theft on the battlefield. While skilled hackers can bypass it, the locking system is designed around the fingerprints of its wielder and thus can only activate in specific hands.
• Auto-Targeting Link: The KS-01 possesses a gadget that increases accuracy for the wielder, connected directly the Legionnaire Combat Armor's HUD to increase shot accuracy.

Weaknesses:

• Recoil: As with most impactful weapons, the KS-01 is meant to kill an enemy with one shot. However, the chances of this are diminished by its unwieldy recoil that can greatly hamper the wielder's ability to land successful shots if they are not properly trained to handle the recoil.
• Aim: The KS-01 requires great care with aiming as it is a highly difficult weapon to wield effectively for maximum results. In the hands of untrained or underestimating soldiers, more shots can be missed than actually hit.
• Need for Ammunition: Slugthrowers biggest disadvantage is the need for ammunition and the low amount they can carry. This can result in soldiers finding themselves without ammo in critical situations.
• Range: The KS-01 is a close quarters weapon designed for trench warfare. It is entirely ineffective at long range and can only find its best use from average-close ranges, especially the latter.

DESCRIPTION

The Empire is no stranger to war. After all, it has been fighting for as long as it can remember.

War is all it knows.

As such, Kascalion Giedfield seeks to aid in this war to bring about the peace he so dearly longs for. As with most things he creates, the KS-01 came to him in a dream as a weapon of sheer destruction.

Powerful, albeit unwieldy, the KS-01 is the first in a line of weapons the Devil Lion of the Empire has planned for the Legion and its soldiers. In the hands of trained soldiers who can handle the recoil, the KS-01 can wipe out entire trenches and hallways in a matter of minutes, rending flesh and bone into mincemeat and marrow. In the hands of those not desiring to fight aggressively, it can be the best defensive measure they could ask for, as long as they don't mind the bloody paste.

The KS-01, all in all, excels at what it is designed to do: trench warfare and room clearing and can act as either a reliable backup for Legionnaires or their trust main weapon to decimate enemy forces.

Big fan of scatterguns. This one is a solid example, but has a few teething issues that will need to be resolved before I can stamp this.

Modifiable Slug Cores: Alongside the detonation charge within the core, the slugs can be filled with offensive substances such as toxins, poisons, and various forms of biological warfare. Some slugs are even capable of housing Kascalion's lethal toxin known as Devil Lion's Cure. This makes the KS-01 highly versatile for the situations it will find itself in

Please can you hyperlink Devil Lion's Cure.

Auto-Targeting Link: The KS-01 possesses a gadget that increases accuracy for the wielder, connected directly the Legionnaire Combat Armor's HUD to lower the chances of missed shots, which is already extremely high.

I'd recommend just dropping the highlighted text as it makes it read like it is impossible to miss, which is obviously not the case if you take the later weakness into account.

Recoil: As with most impactful weapons, the KS-01 is diminished by its unwieldy recoil upon firing. While trained soldiers can lower the recoil, and possibly recover should they miss their shot, the weapon is meant to kill an enemy with one shot when said shot it all but guaranteed. This is because the recoil will undoubtedly prevent the wielder from both missing and living to tell the tale.

I'm kind of confused what you're trying to say here, the highlighted text in particular seems a little disjointed.
