Recently, it's come up that a player wants to mount an underbarrel Antioch-3 GL on... an Antioch-3 GL.
The question is does it use the rules for heavy weapons(top-, barrel-, and under-barrel mounts) or missile/rocket launchers(no mounts)? Ideas? |

Private Meier, raise the field artillery! The one from division! IIRC Antioch is man portable[1] so I'd use heavy weapons. Heavy weapons rules that is. Birdy [1] Man Portable: MilSpeak for "Somebody welded a handgrip to it" |

Regardless of what the rules say, you can't allow that. Because next thing you know, some troll will have a 12-pack Antioch combo, just because.

You can end up with a infinite pack Antioch combo... Start with 1, add another, add another under the second....

Only if you don't use the Canon Hauling The Load rules.

Nah this was to be man portable and I had already told him, even if you do mount the double, you cannot put an underbarrel mount on the underbarrel mount.
so basically what i understand from you guys is, yes give it should be a heavy weapon, and thereby have mounts, but make sure it doesn't get too out of control. If that's wrong please let me know. |
