Dean,

If I read this correctly, your verison of the 'K' railguns drops in
power
from there FTMT counterparts. In FTMT we see that they Rainguns did
damage
on 1-4 class rating, and 5-6 Double class rating. Yours shows 1-5
standard, and 6 double. I don't think I like the idea of making the
Kra'Vaks any weaker. 

Lets look at in a new light, take the most powerfull Human weapons, and
scale the Class3 or 4 railgun to that level and see what happens..

Just a thought..
