Replace the Heavy Acid Rifle with the tripod mounted E-Web Repeating Blaster Cannon.

It would be a stationary weapon. You would have to stop, deploy, then fire. It could not be fired while moving.

Speed should be .5 and it should have a suppressive capability like the suppression shot in the ranged support tree of Novice Marksman.

Just a thought.

That'd sure be cool.

That would be sweet, but everyone would probaly cry nerf the second it came out, and then it would become a 10 shot expendable weapon. And then WSs would charge 10000 credits per shot...

It wouldn't be too bad actually, you could easily balance the high speed by making the damage relatively low, like 50-80ish, with the refire rate compensating for the lack of damage. Since it's mounted, it's easy to stear clear of if you have to, but it would be great for fortifying positions and defending (or sieging as the case may be.) Specials could be focussed on AE sprays and AE surpression attacks with normal fire just being a really fast, but lower damage single attack.

Heh, this game needs all the authentic Star Wars weapons it can get (half of the ones in game aren't even in the films, and all the ones from the films are mediocre for the mostpart) so why not start here?

Couldn't agree more, Raptor2k1, the E-Web was always my favorite weapon in the films anyway.

Don't understand why they didn't take more from the films instead of making up all the weird stuff they did like weapons that shoot acid. Where the hell did that come from?

How about the armor that Dengar wore, or the SandTrooper backpack?

Or when u hit master commando u get a grenade launcher. All u have to do buy the grenades, put it in the launcher and fire like a maniac. It would have nice distance, and a nice speed.

Hmm, there's a solution to the grenade range problem...

we had one in beta lol

Really?

Why the hell did they get rid of it then?

Id like to see the HAR gone, and have the concussion rifle from the game Dark Forces 1 take its place. Definetly a commando weapon.

back in beta we had to master bwaler + marks men and we were extremly powerfull had anti-infatry turests and were abel to lay charges and make gernads

but right befor they relesed it the messed us up bad and still havent fixed us this is why the HAR tree is named ordinace manufactur (this is were you got better at makeing good gernades)

Because it was fun.

A mounted tripod heavy blaster would be idea. Hopefully have some heavy armor piercing or perhaps even some of that elusive stun damage which bypasses most armor as well. Naturally being unable to move places you in serious troublebut then this would be a pure support weapon, ideal for long sieges on player bases.
