Maybe it's because I'm dead tired and about to pass out, but I think I've just been struck with a good Idea....


It's possible it won't seem so great once I get some sleep, so I apologize to you fully rested people, everyone else, listen up...


Wouldn't it be cool to give commando's additional types of heavy ordinance to help justify the master marksman title a little more? Or, oohh! I know, additional specials idiginous to the commando profession that can be used with the carbines, rifles, and pistols that they are certified for at master marksman?


I was also thinking about a machine gun, (my wacky, out there, no sleep Idea) the individual shots wouldn't hit for that much, and the accuracy wouldn't be all that great, but it's strength would be it's rate of fire, which would be rediculous. It could perhaps be placed in the heavy weapons support line, hell, I wouldn't even mind if it used consumable rounds, as long as they could be crated and the cartridges held large amounts of ammo.


Now I'm off to get some sleep, I'm come back and re-read my post when I wake up for a good laugh...

I think this is a good idea. the only problem would be speed and accuracy issues, and what kind of dmg (i.e. blast, energy, kinetic...)

There's a Commando-eqsue weapon featured in one of the West End Games SWRPG sourcebooks called the "Blast and Smash Rifle." I've always thought it would be pretty cool to see commandos using that. In SWG terms, imagine an E11 Carbine with an integrated C22 launcher. I always figured that the C22s would be a special attack usable only with that weapon. More accurate than a normal one at greater distances, possibly greater damage as well, but that's debatable. Anyway, not really sure how useful it'd be in practice, but the idea has always appealed to me.

Most of the universe's problems can be solved by the application of a brick to the side of the right head.
The problem is if you don't have a big enough brick or can't find the right head. The devil is in the details.

any sort of rapid fire gun would be great, not much damage but speed being the key.
