Quote:When you said that I did not believe it because a WWII 16 inch naval gun, 406mm, had a range of about 25 miles. From what I have found is that you are exaggerating by only a little bit. From what I have found is that the maximum range of a 155 Artillery gun is 30km or 18 miles. There is a 155 Artillery gun and ammo that is under development that would have a planed maximum range of 47km or just under 30 miles.
while 155mm cannons in the real world have ranges of 20 miles or more.

2. Some of the wepons just don't make sense to me. For example, the Zeus Heavy rifle sounds alot like a Barret .50 BMG sniper rifle.
As an aside, it's actually meant to be like something in the 7-10mm caliber range, versus the 5-6mm of most infantry rifles.
From what I remember the Zeus Heavy rifle is a .50 caliber rifle.
The weapons that I like is the Zeus Heavy rifle and *I don't remember the name but the laser pistol that uses one power unit with the ?30 unit power clip.*
Of course having an armored infantrymen with clan power armor as the head of my personal guard is helpful.
