A weapon control module can give extra accuracy to guided projectiles. The space requirement for the light weapon control is 1x1, so it's best suited to the Hoverbike (actually its the only thing that will fit on it).

Weapon control modules are useless when using guns (ONLY my hypothesis after playing the game to death - I could be wrong). It does not matter how accurately you miss... you'll still miss. Use them with missile weapons for best results.

Weapon control modules can be stacked. You will only get 50% increase cumulative of each module if you use multiple.

eg: VERY rough estimate

  • 1xmodule = 20% increase
  • 2xmodule = 20 + (50% x 20) = 30% increase
  • 3xmodule = 20 + (50% x 20) + (50%x(50%x20)) = 35% increase
  • 4xmodule = 20 + (50% x 20) + (50%x(50%x(50%x20)))= 37.5% increase.

I don't know the exact formula, but it seems that using more than two modules of ANY sort becomes almost pointless.
