With the combat rebalance comming I want to give the devs something to think about. So here are some analogies for what I think commando and commando weapons should be like.

Hitting a mob with a heavy weapon should be like sandblasting a soup cracker

Shooting a mob with a flamethrower should be like putting a snowball in a blast furnace

Armor should be as effective against thermal detonators as an umbrella is in a hurricane

Ever seen something shot with a HAR? Ever see a VW hit by a semi-truck?

Never seen a vehical shot with a "HAR", but one hit with a 50 cal...I'd rather take my chances with the semi! Remember, Commando is a proffesion that should represent the pre-reqs, have some disadvantages, and definate advantages. That's what we want! We need to be careful about getting NERFED like we did last year.

Balance in reguards to our pre-reqs. Better then Elite overall (Versitility), Less then Elite Specifically (range-wise), But potential to excell in a specific Elite profession. Commando should be the best catalyst to be the best in LONG, MEDIUM, SHORT, NO Range if desired. Decient in all, potential to be the best in ONE.

Nothing crazy Brothers!

actually, i think this idea is kind of fun...

a hit from a rocket launcher should be like pounding an ant with a sledgehammer.

the launcher pistol should rip through a target like a sabot round rips through an enemy tank.

a thermal detonator should be powerful enough to freak out EVERYONE in jabbas palace.

a shot from the HAR should melt someone like taking a leak in the snow.

and the flamethrower...

you know those bruckheimer movies where theres an explosion and some guy runs out of the building screaming loudly as his body turns to ash? thats what my flame thrower is gonna do to you.

wheres starn, i know he'll have a field day with these.

The only hit I'm envisioning after reading this is our proffession taking a huge hit from the nerf-bat.
