Well, I always like using up all the 'old basic' weapons before
cluttering the room with 'new ones'. <grin>

Seriously, I find that I so far just enjoy the basic weapons (FT/2nd)
but
the Missiles we used in my only battle (so far) did seem 'deadly' so
there i am again.  Ambivalent (but leaning towards innovative use of the
current stuff over the 'silver bullet syndrome'.  (Unless we are 
talking
werewolves -  oops, wrong list. <grin>)

You don't have to be French to be a 'frog', or even human!
Nektons - Real Marines!
Starguard, Dirtside 2, Full Thrust, Ratner's Space Marines, Stellar
Conflicts and Uprisings, and Full Thrust/2nd.  Resistance is everything!
