	Having seen "Saving Private Ryan" last week and then reading the
above it
would seem that someone is deliberately shaking me out of complacency
about
combat. None of the members of my family have ever spoken about what
they
saw. Makes you kind and stop and think about the games we play and what
they would mean if real.

	At three shots per activation the whoever gets Superior firecon
is going
to annihilate their enemy. Might be better to give them 2 (ehanced) or 3
(superior) shots if they don't move. Then allow the Superior ones to
have 2
shots and the free overwatch.
