*shrugs* Just to keep it simple. In NetEpic scale, it matters little if its
a laspistol or a boltpistol

A tactical stand isnt armed just with bolters. They carry a missile launcher
or plasma gun or grenades etc. Summarize this with a catch-all term like the
one used for devastators with "heavy weapons" now

Good good :)

>Bolters as far as I know...

In 40K the land raider / leman russ / baneblade etc mounts heavy bolters.

True. But well, thats something I can live with I guess. It was just a loose
suggestion though. I'd like to see the two guns being different

I could have sworn it was -3... I must be getting old...

The hellgun is inbetween lasguns and bolters in 40K. SInce these things are
identical in NetEpic, the hellgun should too
