Its function remains largely the same, but it has now been changed from an energy weapon to a "poor man's Gauss Rifle" that uses lower-grade 3025-tech. The fluff text behind the Coil Gun doesn't make a lot of sense. The Streak SRM2 is the ultimate answer to hyper-evasive targets with an awesome +4 Acc (higher accuracy than any other weapon) and respectable damage for its weight. The Rocket Launcher adds an interesting high damage, low weight, (but one shot) option that can easily be fitted on any mech for a little extra punch. The UAC-20 doesn't add anything to the game except excessive power creep. It and its variants get replaced with the far easier to fit Rocket Launcher 20 and Streak SRM2. Frankly, a heavy MG should have been retconned long ago like so many other Retrotech weapons.Īnother non-Star League weapon that doesn't fit the era at all. Again, I know it's not exactly canon, but it's low tech, fits the era, and gives you a low weight ballistic option that is sadly lacking with the vanilla game. In it's place, you will get a far more useful Heavy Machine Gun.
