Um, _why_ should they have to accept this? Yes, this is a different game,
but it is of course drawn from SM/TL, and Thunderers were by far the best
infantry unit in that game. Rules representing them in this game should
reflect this.

Of course, I just may be biased ;)

Perhaps drop the fp to 3, or drop Rapid Fire. This would still make them
a very solid heavy infantry unit.
