Re: Assault/Battle Rifles
When playing around with an OOB once (UN I think) I tried that same approach.
Worked just fine. Generic named weapons which you could call whatever you wanted (IIRC I included an Advanced AsR, for the 5.56 jobbies with scopes on).
The reason? It came from the Idea was that most engaugements are limited to the range you can aim at an enemy. It's not until the scope became common on battle rifles that really changed the range of engaments very much.
The real question is why not do it for the next version of SP:MBT?
