I don't believe you can just create new categories for things like weapons, you have to appropriate existing ones and use the separator to delineate them on the printout/list view. It's covered in the 2nd post on the Common Code Examples thread, but it's a bit convoluted because it's kind of a convoluted method, but essentially you would appropriate a category you are not using otherwise, say "Special: Rocket Launchers". You'd set one of your categories, such as MBR Pistols, to actually be "Special: Rocket Launchers" but preclude the separator entry for "Special: Rocket Launchers" and create a new one for "- Mercenary Breed Pistols -". Then every MBR Pistol create is still tagged as "Special: Rocket Launchers" but will be grouped under the heading of Pistols you created.
