[QUOTE="Suskeyhose, post: 8981537, member: 6840540"] So the rules for ammunition provided in Eons 55 - Game Modes, provide the way ammunition is meant to be tracked in WOiN games. Ammunition in those rules are not individual rounds, but rather an abstract concept of how much you have left, represented by a countdown pool rolled at the end of combats. Those rules specify that you discard one dice of ammunition for suppressive fire. This accounts for the fact that while you may use more rounds with an auto weapon, you also buy more when stocking up. Standard rules in the game without those alternate rules is to simply not track ammunition. If you have a houserule for tracking ammunition more precisely, you will need to invent your own ruling for suppressive fire. Personally I would think the only time this matters much is when you're using special ammo, in which case I'd just say an auto weapon simply expends all the currently loaded special ammunition every time you use suppressive fire or the cone attack.
