Re: The use of designated marksman in the game?
Usually this is handled by adding a "sniper rifle" (usually weapon #1 in most OOB's) to a squad.
You could also create a one-man unit armed with whatever weapon you wished and name it a "marksman".
For myself I sorta assume the less skilled "snipers" in each OOB (those with a "fire control" and "range finder" value of 0 or 5) are marksmen rather then "real" snipers.
As to adding new types of "sniper rifles" to the game...been discussed many times...not happening...90% of the time the difference between one sniper rifle and another is insignificant in game terms.
