A rifleman couldn't care less about his action pool today. Rifles is all about the mind, and I still don't need a buff for heavy combat.
When I'm out on survey with the nice light E11, I don't even need the food & drink or armor. Keep the bursts tight & short, and I'm good to go.
If you believe that's true, then I challenge you to go out hunting with no action buffs.
I've been a rifleman too. And while it's true that the Action pool isn't affected much, all rifles do have an Action point cost associated with using their special manouvers.
Besides, you are getting tangled up inmy syntax and dodging my point. Mind will be used to spend for special attacks as well as Action, and we will be needed to buff those eager little minds.

ok, you got me there... I don't need a MIND buff for heavy combat. For light-weights like Famba, I'm fine with all my natural pools & novice medic. If you wanna go after the Acklay or do a bit of Night Sister stalking, I need the Doc buffs to be useful to the group for anything other than pulling a victim from their group, but even for that I run wiout a mind buff.

Ihareo, as one that has seen more covered by the NDA you are assuming too much in what you believe them to be leaving with us. Take the document for what it says. If it doesn't say it then assume it's not there...
If I were to assume that then I would have to assume that there is no game other than a few loosely patched together paragraphs.
Besides, the thing hasn't even gone to alpha testing yet (as far as I know).
I am trying to help avoid a profession wide panic about maybe's and whatif's.
