Thread: Suggested stat fixes for existing carbines
Just a note, this is a continuation of another thread entitled "Carbine Range mods are bogus" I figured I'd go ahead and do the same thing for the whole stats.
We all know that the current carbine stats are mostly bogus. But what should they be? I put a little thought into it and came up with some numbers that should be pretty close. Not that these are base statistics, w/o optional components. Meaning that a Master Weaponsmith will make a unit with AT LEAST these stats or better 95% of the time. I am also assuming that the HAM fix for carbines will affect specials, and not the weapon stats, therefor these aren't as heavily lowered as I would have otherwise had them.
DH17 Carbine. Compact, standard carbine.
Damage: 45-90; Armor Piercing: 0; Speed 3.8; Wound Chance 8%; H: 25; A: 26; M: 19
Zero range -10; Mid range @35 +15; Max range -60
DH17 Snubnose. Shorter and better suited for close quarters like coridors and cities.

DXR6 Carbine. Unusual carbine is effective at close ranges.

EE3 Carbine. This carbine packs a good blast but is innacurate. (please make its blast radius work)

Laser Carbine. This powerful, long-barreled hunting carbine is very effective at range, but too unwieldy for close combat.

Zero range -35; Mid range @50 +25; Max range -25
Elite Carbine. This versatile and powerful carbine is hailed by masters of the craft for its supreme accuracy.

Zero range +5; Mid range @30 +20; Max Range -35.
Hrmm, taking a second look at this, I suppose I should have made the differences in HAM costs and refire rates a little bit more exagerated between the carbines...
