Rifle names

Hi Sword,
I was just looking at Lankey's list of firearms and came across the AKM 'Ghost'; however on my Weapons Spreadsheet it is 'Phantom'. I copied this from: STALKERSOUP MODDERS' TOOLS, WEAPONS as this last uses AKM 'Phantom'.
I hope this information is of use.
Regards,
TrueB.

Thanks for spotting this. I believe this was Ghost's customized AKM, so all previous references to it have now been renamed to the AKM 'Phantom', to conceal his identity

EDIT: The same has been done with Ghost's Gauss rifle, and this all should avoid any conflict with the Ghost stealth exo

Hi Sword, thank you for clearing this up. So the ghost stealth exo, is more about an invisible spirit than the Character Ghost? Perhaps in the mythology of the character Strelok, this may be how he got to the centre of the zone unseen, though perhaps like Marked One, obviously he used a death truck as a means of escape. If he had been caught, he would have been simply killed, as his companions Ghost and Fang were killed, it seems. I was just thinking the message Ghost leaves for Strelok in the hideaway, is iirc signed a Phantom, so as this was his cover name, the change to phantom is appropriate. Regards, TrueB

The 'Ghost' exo was so named by the organization that developed it for Special Forces, whereas the 'Phantoms' were unique weapons used by Ghost, and sometimes developed further by research companies using anomalous technology to create more advanced versions of them

Hi Sword,
On reading your succinct reply, I noticed a Thanks Button so pressed it, and your post was duplicated with a grey background. I thought it might just be a way of saying thank you for a reply to someone helping, instead. Perhaps someone can advise on the use for this button please? Regards, TrueB

Thanks. Don't worry, I removed it, as it was rather garish

The usual way to show approval is by upvoting E.g. clicking on the + symbol at the top right of a post. There's more info on this here...

Yes, I have clicked up when useful advice is given so I would not have pressed 'Thanks' except I like to know what all does, so the only way to find out is to press it. And for your advice I respond appropriately, for you have my Vote Sword
