Well, as a case in point, Tarantula IS what the Imperial support weapon
is (it A/T)

Over the course of a couple of CJ and WD they have come up with the
following "Support Weapons"
1) AT weapon (basic rules)
2) FP based artillery weapon (CJ Squats)
3) Flak weapon (WD)
4) Disrupt weapon (CJ Adeptus Arbiter)

That just about covers all the real world version of a light support
weapon. I will be changing the Imperial data pages off E41K to reflect
all of the weapon types.

And about Projectile vomit... Is that a Barrage, a Mega Cannon or Heavy
Barrage?
