Ooh me! Add me! I've always wanted to be apart of a list.
As for heavy stories, I had my best moment in Dust a few days ago.
There I was, with my Advanced Heavy frame and trusty DAU-2/A Forge Gun. My team of blueberries was being annihilated by a squad of proto-stompers from some corp called Naiyin/NayNay/Nayan Cats/Whatever. It was difficult to get anything done, especially with this damn Madrugar and two LAVS running around the place. Over the course of the match I gradually chipped off some of the HAV's Armor, but success was looking dim. Then, the planets aligned ever so nicely. The enemy HAV drove past me without notice and began firing on some helpless teammates, and as I began charging up to put a rail slug up its rear, BOTH enemy LAVs decided to join the HAVs slaughter. One shot off, the HAV bursts into a pile of scrap. I immediately launch a second slug destroying one LAV, and then a third shot takes out the other LAV. Within an 8 second time frame I single-handedly destroyed all of the enemy's armor. Sadly, we still lost that match, but damn that 8 seconds of destruction felt good.
Just you wait. One day, all will fall to their knees before the fatty overlords.

Question, is a Boundless for all seasons or it it a case of choosing Freedom, Six Kin or Boundless (or Forge for that matter) dependant on the map?
Each HMG definitely shines in a slightly different light. Boundless is good for real close quarters stuff, where the enemy is right at the end of your barrel. Freedom is better suited for medium range. I find the assault HMGs are effective at a pleasantly surprising distance. The Six Kin is a strange beast. I don't believe it has any more range than a Boundless(It might, but I'm not sure), but if you can keep your reticle on target you will melt faces with a burst HMG. The Six Kin is also good for giving stationary targets a nasty surprise.
Then of course for large open-area maps, a forge gun is a good option for hanging back and picking off targets at a distance. Normal or assault are both good, I don't really care too much for the breach variant. Too many draw-backs, not enough damage. I personally prefer a normal forge gun so I can hold a shot while I aim, but its hard to go wrong when choosing which forge gun to use.
