well what do you think of this? Personally I think that if it IS a bug it needs to be fixed... on the other hand I would hate to loose the effect of it

There is some discussion going on in the Rifleman's forums about the way the devs think the AP/AR system should work, which seems to be slightly off from what is currently in place. That is, currently, we get a damage bonus for using our medium AP LVA against a target with AR1 or AR0. There is a dev saying this is not the way it works. Implications of this: if they decide that it is currently working improperly, no more damage bonuses for AP weapons.
