Yes, and? I have never once lost to anyone using non-mainstream weapons.

Equal combat bonuses on each side occur very frequently, esp. mid to late game. Combat bonuses and damage/kT/ROF ratio are the two most important factors in combat. When combat bonuses are equal on both sides, they no longer matter. All that is left is the damage ratio. Sure, things like range and speed cane make a difference, but it is nothing compared to the first 2 items.

But some racial weapons - Temporal Cannon and High Energy Magnifier - have to-hit bonuses !
