Sub Machine Gun Damage

You are on your own. The Army is MIA and our government is gone! There are no communications of any kind. Cities and towns have gone dark, and zombies fill the streets. The dead have risen and it would seem to be the end of the world. Help me, Mommy!

They have one, it is kind of old but I believe it is weapons and armor and it was written for the HU modern setting, tons of guns and armor for modern day settings based in it, As for including single round damage on a burst style weapon, What would you do if you had one round in the pipe and a hungry zombie coming at you. Im sorry but I would either try and put it down with the one shot or my self.

and I have found going with the damage listed under the damage section works best in your situation, given that like the gent above me you will find a ton of misprints like this, you will grow to love them or hate them, I like to see them as funny mind benders they throw in to see if we all really read there books.

Sorry, I didn't actually mean to sound quite so flippant :P

The book you are after is called the "Compendium of Contemporary Weapons" is has a picture of a guy holding two machine guns and wearing a gas mask. A few house rules will see you right.

Unfortunatly, as you read more and more from Palladium, it will become blindingly obvious that PB in general have absolutly no clue when it comes to things Military, proof reading also seems to be a problem.

For all the general rules about bursts and other automatic fire, the damages are based off the multiples of the single round damage.

As to the other damages, it looks like they might be giving the damages for different size rounds.

4d6 is the damage the .45
May you be blessed with the ability to change course when you are off the mark.
Each question should be give the canon answer 1st, then you can proclaim your house rules.
