Burst fire module on a particle cannon


#1

If I modify a particle cannon with the burst fire module… does the double effort of the cannon multiply against the triple effort of the module leading to 6x weapon effort?

If it doesn’t - then it doesn’t make sense to mod the particle gun.
If it does - seems like this would be the only choice of the gunner.


#2

Figured it out - yes it does multiply.


#3

This is one of the 3 or 4 greatest exploits in ICRPG… mitigated only by that moment when your particle cannon (modded) is lost or destroyed… ouch


#4

Don’t know if this is a house rule or not by I translate double and tripple effort etc as the number of effort dice to roll, then I add the bonus :slight_smile:
So a Burst Fire Particle Cannon would be 5d6+bonus.
