I was just wondering what the general sentiment was about using the Grenade Launcher defaulting to assault rifle skill rule. In particular, if you could default to the specialisation of the assault rifle that the GL was mounted on without further penalties.
Say that a character has Assault Rifles (M22A3) 4(6). He wants to fire the u/b mounted grenade launcher. Would he use the general 'assault rifle' skill, or the specialisation for the specific gun. Just FYI, I'm leaning towards the specialisation. I was just looking for opinions or clarifications. |
