FAQ:
Fabric version? - Currently work in progress.
Will you backport to versions like 1.19? - Will only be using 1.20.1 and upwards. Backporting requires alot of extra time and work due to code changes. This could change however.
Is the mod compatible with recruits mod? - Most weapons will NOT be usable with recruits mod due to how these weapons function, there is no plan to add compatibility.
Where can I report bugs and suggest features? - Currently transitioning servers so please be patient.
