Thoughts on my last post

 
Thoughts on weapon combinations and why nations would use them	desired.
 
LTAR and SAW - This seems to be the Low Tech Baseline - the 'at  least
they 
shoot' school of equipping a military.	Hence the PHR got this	(I
dumped the 
VLTAR thing.)
 
LTAR and Rotary SAW - This seems plausible for a force where the  squad
has 
most of it's fire power in the SAW although I suspect it would use a 
lost of 
ammunition.  NPC has to save money somewhere and rifles were where  they
made 
the decision.  Since they have a lot of 'contact' with PHR  and IC this
seemed 
to show the desire to have some equality with those  forces
 
LTAR and Gauss SAW - I wonder what would lead a faction/nation to  put
such 
disparate technology together?
 
AAR and SAW - I see this as baseline 'Mid-tech' weaponry, hence  the 
LIRA/LLAR got the nod here.  A Second tier power but on a lesser 
important section of 
their part of the universe.
 
AAR and Rotary SAW - Perhaps a nation might choose this to give  their
forces 
a firepower edge over the most probable baseline mid-tech  enemy? 
Another 
Second Tier Power carefully watching the NI backed NPC and  suppressing
the PHR 
(there is a 'history' for that love lost  relationship).  Uses a lot of
IF 
Mercenaries on this planet.
 
AAR and Gauss SAW - This seems like a compromise between cost and 
cutting 
edge weaponry.	Another Second tier power (RH) willing to spend a 
little more 
money to equip the troops for whatever reason.
 
Gauss rifle and SAW - If you had Gauss Rifles why choose a  non-Gauss
SAW?
 
Gauss rifle and Rotary SAW - If you had Gauss Rifles why choose a 
non-Gauss 
SAW, even if Rotary?
 
Gauss Rifle and Gauss SAW - This just struck me as NEA weaponry,  given
their 
love of Combat Walkers, Infantry Walkers, and PA.  These guys  like
bright 
shiny cutting edge toys even if the technology isn't 'proven'  yet.
