Except I haven't read enough to know what they would be for.  This is my
first battle, and I figured I'd just add things that shoot for now.

I thought I read it as "no weapon may be fired more than once per
activation", not "no individual can fire more than once per
activation."  Is it worded that latter way somewhere?

Actually, I think I intended to use the robot figure as a heavy power
armor trooper, a bit heavier than the other guys he's with.  I should
have been more clear.  Do I need the fire control because he's a robot
(in which case I don't, 'cause he's not), or to fire more than once?  I
was trying to avoid vehicle rules for this game, too, but maybe firecons
are useful for other things?
