RE: KV Railguns - Another idea

Not really, but one advantage is, you only have to roll once to-hit
regardless of RG class, so all shots can be rolled together, instead of
each class being rolled separately.
EG: 2*RG-3 + 4*RG-2 at 15" = 12 die attack hitting on 4+, roll any hits
again for damage (ave: 9pts).
You roll twice for PT damage anyway, so 2 rolls isn't that bad.
Compared to 4 separate rolls for the above shooting under MT.
If we wanted to increase the average damage to 2pts/die, we could use:
1-3=1pt, 4-5=2pts, 6=3pts.  This keeps the same standard mechanic
against MT style KV armour.

An interesting idea, but is there any way we can eliminate the second
die roll?
