Gents,
I hate the rules for UAC and for ages have had my own alternative following fire system based on the old Solaris set.
But those are a little complex so I had a new idea.
For every point you make the hit by you add +1 for your roll on the 2 column.
This represents how well you track your target. Also makes it easier to get 2 hits. Currently less than 40% (8 or higher). But this also means easy shots, 7 or less you have a decent chance of putting a couple on target. But if you need 11, you can still get 2, but harder to pull off.
AWAD- UAC is a waste as is, give me LB.

Sounds like a good rule to counter the "bo-boom-click-f*!k!" attitude of the UACs!
(Lost my freshly pimped Centurion because the UAC/10 jammed in its first shot!)

| I know your pain Rudel. The Atlas that I modified with a pair of UACs to give it longer sniping power has been lost in battle several times due to that jamming issue. One of the reasons why I added uc 2s instead of upgrading the ac20 to ultra. Nothing scarier than having to dump ac20 ammo because the damn things jams.

they need to adapt and change the rules to allow you to clear a jam as per RACs.
