[QUOTE="Anime Kidd, post: 1721653, member: 881"] I got the impression that the 25mm isn't a full-length round, but was shortened. Look at the pic. Those rounds are rather squat (big round, not much powder) when compared to how a .50 looks. This is the reason why I kept the range and crit. as is, and the damage only slightly better. I don't want to make this thing the next BFG on the block. As for HE rounds, it didn't mention them. I assume you are referring to the Bradley's 25mm, correct? For the BORS sight, I would just make that an integrated telescopic sight. As for how it would calculate all the variables for range, wind, etc. This could be the only real thing that counts for a better Range Increment then the Fifty. The "1-shot per 2 rounds" Rate of Fire could be a Strength check? After each shot, you check to see if you can handle the recoil or lose a round to recover. If successful, you can make a new attack the next round and there would be a oenalty for non-being proficient in the weapon [already in place], the firing position, and if the weapon is braced or not [using a bipod, etc]. And seeing how this thing is a pretty big caliber, shouldn't be better suited towards being a direct-fire Heavy Weapon? I mean, I've seen the definition of "Small Arms" as a weapon that can be used and fired by a single person and has a caliber of 20mm or less. While the 25mm rifle can be used and fired by one man, it breaks the 20mm-or-under rule. [/QUOTE]
