[QUOTE="Morgenstern, post: 338567, member: 5485"] As a side note, agent's who really want to be good with fully automatic weapons can do more with the autofire rules :). From the Soldier / Wheelman Class Guide~ [b]Machine Gun Basics[/b] You are highly skilled with fully-automatic weapons. [u]Prerequisites:[/u] Speed Trigger, base attack +3 or better. [u]Benefit:[/u] You are proficient with all fully automatic weapons (those that may be fired in strafe mode), even if you don’t have the appropriate Weapon Group Proficiency feat for the weapon. When firing a weapon in burst mode, burst attacks use up only 2 shots each. Further, you receive a +1 competence bonus to all attack rolls when making an autofire or strafe attack. Finally, your Strength is considered 4 higher when determining recoil penalties (see the Modern Arms Guide, page XX). [b]Machine gun Mastery[/b] You are an expert with fully-automatic weapons. [u]Prerequisites:[/u] Machine gun Basics, base attack +10 or higher. [u]Benefit:[/u] When making an autofire or strafe attack, each volley uses up only 2 shots (though the number of targets it may hit is unchanged). When making an autofire attack, you score an additional hit for every 3 points that your attack roll exceeds the target’s Defense. Finally, you may use a machine gun one-handed (in your chosen hand only, unless you have the Ambidexterity feat), but you suffer a –2 to all attack rolls with the weapon when doing so. [/QUOTE]
