Specific Examples:

1) Submachinegun
Should do 1D8 damage (same as a medium pistol) since the vast majority of submachineguns fire the same ammo as medium pistols.

2) Sniper Rifle
Should do 2d6+4 damage, like a bolt action rifle, since most sniper rifles fire the same bullets as bolt action rifles. The 2d10+4 would be the top end “heavy” sniper rifle. STR min should be upped a bit, so that it about the same as a bolt action rifle.

3) Battle Rifle
Should be added. It is a heavier, scaled up version of the assault rifle, and fires the same ammo as the bolt action rifle for bolt action damage and slightly less range (say 100m vs. 110) and say 1 point more STR min.

4) Sporting Rifle
Should probably be called a light rifle. Since most sporting rifles are bolt-action rifles the terms overlap and cause confusion.

5) Machinegun Turret
Should pobably be called a heavy machinegun. Reason being than many machgun gun turrets actually mount medium machineguns (the BRP machinegun).
Damage should probably be scaled down a bit, say 2d10+5 or 4d6+1. 4d6+4 doesn't match up with the damages in CoC, and lets the weapon penetrate modern tanks.


6) Sporting Shotgun
Another confusing term, as most shotguns are sporting weapons. There are a handful of combat and assault shotguns, but 98%+ are sporting weapons. A term like pump action shotgun would be better. STR min should be slightly lower than a double barreled shotgun.

7) Automatic Shotgun
Should be clarified if this is actually a automatic (i.e. burst fire capable) shotgun or an autoloading (semi-automatic) shotgun. STR min should be a little lower than the double barreled for a semi auto weapon, and a little higher for a fully automatic shotgun.

Woo! Spot on!
