http://lists.csua.berkeley.edu/mailman/listinfo/gzg-lPerhaps I am going
about this the wrong way.  I think I have been trying to make the
force's image style disctate tactics instead of just letting it be a
style.	Who is to say my force doesn't use a longer rifle, perhaps a
long-barreled gauss weapon which I can model from the numerous WW2 LMG
troopers.

Stat-wise they could just be normal Gauss Weapons, allowing the force to
be competitive with various forces while still having the "look" I want.

Thanks for helpingm e get my head around this.
