I like the ideas but as far as the mortar for instance would be extremely slow if it took 2 commandos (which would be cool to be able to interact in that way) but its a neat idea.
Heat seekers are always nice, but prob way to difficult to impliment something like that I dunno. Only problem to me is ive seen ideas lately that stem from real life commandos and we should be focusing on Starwars commandos. Dont get me wrong we r similar, but the weapons should be more advanced. Im not a starwars nut or anything so these are just my thoughts.
I'll re-iterate tho, these r cool ideas allbeit farfetched ones haha

Ya want cool and farfetched?....
It would be cool if someday they combined JTL and the ground game's (currently extinct) battlefields. A Commando on the battlefield could call in coordinants (waypoint) to a large PC controlled starship for a Space to Ground attack. Here's the catch...The Starship has to manuever to a cooresponding waypoint in space and remain there for 5 minutes before it can take a shot and the Commando must remain alive and capacitated within the battlefield during those 5 min. If the shot is gotten off...it's devistating for a 32m radius and can change the tide of any battle.
Of course both sides will desire an advantage like this. Therefore it's obviouse that there would be several TIE fighetrs and X-Wings wrestling in space for a particular location to support thier ground allies. These space fighters would be either trying to secure a secter in space to safely bring in large Spacecraft, or trying to destroy an opponants vurnerable large Spacecraft which is sitting idle for 5 min to take a shot.
Of couse the ground battle will be raging as well. The Pilots will be crossing thier fingures for the Commando who called in the strike...and the Commando will be keeping an eye up to the stars hoping his friends up there pull through! 
Very Star Warsy...Very ROTJ...Very Cool.........and VERY FARFETCHED!

Thats a great idea make the HAR more like an AR....light AP, medium damage and speed, mid-long range......
give it some kewl (but not too powerful) specials, like something equal to a riflemansheadshot1and somethingsimilar toone of thecarbiniers skills

Ok, so I'm justr kinda reading the boards when all of a sudden a few ideas hit me for some cool commando weapons--mind you they probably won't even be considered, but here it goes:
Mortar-It is a variable-munitions special weapon that is used at extreme range (i.e. 124m or something to that extent) that utilizes grenades and napalm. Speed is very slow, but maybe another commando could get an option to act as a loader while another is the aimer, and thus the speed is halved. Dmg is about grenade dmg, radius is doubled, if napalm is used, DoT is applied.
I also wanted to change the rocket launcher a bit, so it would act like this:
Rocket launchers are horribly inaccurate and we can't hit a moving target worth crap. So, let's follow the example of some real-life army tactics- heat seeking missiles fired from the rocket launcher. These would be quest-given, and would require a special schematic for the "heat-seeking" device in it. Our to hit bonus would just about triple, and thus we could actually hit a moving target. However, the catch: these are meant foruse on the front lines with nobody but the enemy in front of you, for the rocket would "track" using a cone like our flamer specials, and it would not differentiate from friend and foe. I'd hate to be blown up by my teamate because he was looking the wrong way!
So these are just two of my random ideas, so give your input/flame/praise/hatemail
here.
