Indeed, but the weight listed for the Solothurn S-18 is outrageous for a Man-Portable weapon. For a team, not so much; for an individual, outrageous.
At worst, it should use a Bipod. No Tripods for a single user weapon.


People in the SR world are likely a lot stronger than your average military team of today thanks to augmentations. I wouldn't rule the weight of it as being out of reach for man-portable....

Anyway, this is what I think of when I think Assault Cannon

or this, but it's a bit light maybe

.... maybe the Anti-Boomer Heavy Rifle, of Bubblegum Crisis, would be a better match? I even found some fan-made SR2 or SR3 stats for it.

Needless to say, NSFW. Or children. Or most adults. Or the elderly... Or pretty much anyone else, come to think of it.

"OH, FUCK, THAT'S AN ANTI-TANK RIFLE!"

*awkard laughter from Jake from Adventure Time*

I think I need to start watching this abridgement series.

And equip an assault rifle with a Weapon Personality program, set to play that laughter reel after every kill.

Much larger than 25mm is possible.

The M-18 Recoilless Rifle is a 57mm weapon; the Pansarskott m/68 is a 74mm weapon. Or the AT4, for that matter - it's an 84mm weapon.

Well, considering all three parents I had to raise as a single child growing up, I'm warped beyond any form of corruption...

I always envisioned a weapon firing an explosive projectile bigger than a 40mm Grenade launcher in a less direct trajectory than you'd use with a Sniper/AT Rifle.
