Snipers Range

[DRG]

I am not going to revisit the "sniper rifle range" issue. It has already been argued to death in the past and I really do not care if they "consistently engaging targets at 1000m". or more or less. Ask 40 people and get 40 different answers.

ALL regular "Sniper Rifles" in the game have a weapon range of 15 hexes. The Heavy 12.7 rifles have been given a range of 36. This new British one will be rated at 25 and I'm sure will open up a useless debate as to whether <insert nations name here> Magnum express round should be given two more hexes range because <insert nations name here> snipers are all expert qualified to <insert range here> .

YOU said "I see the British don't have Heavy Snipers in MBT! " Up until the introduction of the new rifle they didn't in the game or in RL. "Heavy" is reserved for the .50 cal weapon

The decision to give all sniper rifles the same in game range was made years ago and I have no intention of altering or opening a debate on the issue and I can assure you Andy and I are in full agreement on that.
