Default Re: HMGs/MMGs and LMGs.

In addition to just reaching out farther (both distance and the area effect), does not the higher range make the weapon more "accurate" overall, despite having the same "accuracy" rating?

I recall reading sometime back that the weapon system's accuracy rating has to do with a unit of X experience (used as a base) hitting a target at 50% of max range, before accounting for unit posture, terrain, etc.

If I'm remembering this correctly, that would make the MMG a good deal more lethal within the LMG's range limits.
