Automatic Weapons and Full-Auto Only
Basic Set: Campaigns · p.408
Open source p.408Automatic weapons – firearms
with RoF 4+ – use the Rapid Fire rules.
Most can fire both controlled bursts
and “full auto” (that is, for as long as
the trigger is held down).
Some automatic weapons (e.g.,
machine guns) can only fire full auto;
they lack a semi-automatic or limit-
ed-burst setting (“selective fire”). A
weapon that is “full-auto only” has a
“!” after its RoF statistic. The only
way to fire a short burst with such a
weapon is to hold down the trigger
for a fraction of a second. Minimum
RoF is one-quarter full RoF (round
up) or shots remaining, whichever is
less.
