A few questions from a newcomer to the system:
1. In what units are range increments measured, specifically with regard to vehicle weapons? I can't find anywhere in the book which defines this.
2. Does weight have any relevance for vehicle weapons? It doesn't seem to, but it's hard to reconcile why else a M249 light machine gun costs twice as much as a M240 machine gun when they are functionally identical apart from the former's lighter weight, so I wonder if I'm missing something...
3. The section on Designing a Career refers to "a soldier's extra ammunition ability." I assume this is an obsolete reference to an early version of the system where running out of ammunition was a possibility?
