 Well, my intention was to point out that it isn't clearly stated in the

proposed
 FAQ. If you cannot use GMS versus infantry, fine, just say "No."
 We have had some vague discussion here inour group whether you could or
not,
 basically agreeing that you cannot, but what if you really need _all_
the
 firepower you have (and the GMS/P troopers do not carry AR ;-).... I
saw the
 question in the FAQ and thought the solution was at hand, but, alas,
that 
was not
 the case.

Well, as a matter of common sense, GMS/P could have alternate warheads,
for 
example, they could have two AT, and one HE, per load... but they would
to be 
reffed correctly...and as far as firing at PA, while a little overkill,
if 
they have a decent signature, i don't see why not, as a matter of fact
that 
could be a good idea for a "stealth suit" which has a low enough
signature 
that GMS's won't acquire it...
