Question regarding the subject above.
The Special Weapon Proficiency feat states that "If a set of special weapons are all different models of the same weapon, proficiency in one such weapon grants proficiency with all weapons in the set." That makes sense for the battlebows out of Dead Suns AP, but what about the shuriken detailed in the Core Rulebook and Armory? Are all of these weapons considered different models of the same weapon?
I would definitely consider them all to be under the same proficiency. The shuriken listed in Armory are all written with the format generally associated with different models of the same weapon, and the carbon edge shuriken in CRB likely did not use that format because no alternate models existed.
