http://lists.csua.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gzg-lI just helped my GF
design her ESU PA assault squad.  Slow Heavy PA
and half the 8 man squad has Flachette Cannons. (Assault Shotguns
with an impact of d10).

Now I'm afraid to face them as she has seen the shock and awe PA
cause in  a close assault.
