Without a specific mod titled "RimWorld: Run and Gun Combat Extended," this report offers a general overview of what such a mod or gameplay style might entail. If you're interested in this type of gameplay, I recommend checking out the Steam Workshop or official RimWorld forums for the most current and compatible mods.

Run and Gun (RnG) Combat Extended (CE) transforms into a high-stakes tactical shooter where mobility and fire discipline are just as important as your weapon's caliber Core Interaction: Mobility vs. Ballistics

While both mods are compatible, they fundamentally change different parts of the combat engine: Run and Gun [1.5]

: Adds a toggle that allows drafted pawns to shoot while moving at the cost of movement speed Combat Extended : Replaces vanilla's "hit-chance" RNG with a physical ballistic model

, where bullets are live projectiles with height, velocity, and trajectories.

Whats the verdict on CE and Run n Gun? Separately and Together. Do they make the game harder or easier? : r/RimWorld Dec 30, 2566 BE —

In the brutal world of , combining the Combat Extended (CE) and Run and Gun mods transforms a simple colony simulation into a high-stakes tactical shooter where every bullet counts and mobility is survival. The Last Stand of "Dusty" Miller

Dusty was a veteran scout in a desert colony, armed with an FN FAL and exactly three magazines of 7.62mm FMJ ammo . In Combat Extended

, ammo isn't infinite; if you run out mid-fight, you're left with a very expensive club.

When a Centipede mechanoid landed, Dusty knew a stationary fight was a death sentence. In vanilla RimWorld, a Centipede's heavy charge blaster might miss. In

, its projectiles have actual hitboxes and trajectories—it doesn't "roll to hit"; it just sprays lead that turns pawns into "pink mist". The Tactical Maneuver:

Suppression: As the Centipede opened fire, the massive volume of lead triggered the CE Suppression mechanic. Dusty’s "Suppression" bar spiked, threatening to make him curl into a fetal position in the sand.

Run and Gun: Instead of being pinned, Dusty used the Run and Gun mod to fire while retreating. He toggled his FAL to "Snapshot" mode, which decreased his accuracy but allowed him to keep his distance while moving.

Ballistic Reality: Every shot Dusty fired back while running had a 20% accuracy penalty. He wasn't aiming for the Centipede's head—he was just trying to keep it "suppressed" so he could reach the safety of the colony’s plasteel fortifications. The Outcome

Dusty made it to the bunker, but only because he could shoot over his shoulder while fleeing. Without Run and Gun, he would have had to stop, aim, and fire—giving the Centipede the split-second it needed to "warm up" its blaster and vaporize him. Why this combo is legendary: Combat Extended mod for RimWorld · GitHub

→ CE ballistics + moving hit calc is heavy. Lower “Moving accuracy check interval” in Run and Gun settings.

To achieve the "Run and Gun Combat Extended" fantasy, here is your mod load order (simplified):

Warning: Do not add Yayo's Combat 3 (Yayo's is great but conflicts with CE's ammo system). Do not add Search and Destroy (it makes AI run-and-gun chaotic).

In standard CE, suppression stops you. With Run and Gun, you can crawl or walk while suppressed, but your aim is virtually zero. This encourages using moving fire not as an assault tactic, but as a suppressive cover fire tactic.

Essential (base compatibility)

Compatibility tips

CE introduces ammunition bulk. If you are running and gunning, you are burning ammo at 3x the normal rate. Carrying 200 rounds of 5.56mm slows your pawn down. A slower pawn has a higher movement accuracy penalty. This creates a natural balance: fast scouts with SMGs and light ammo pouches vs. heavy gunners who must stand still.

CE punishes standing in the open. Run and Gun rewards staying in motion. The fusion doctrine is "Shoot, Scoot, and Suppress."

Now that you have the mods installed and your SMGs equipped, how do you actually use this in a raid?
