 Wouldn't this kind of nonsense fall into the "gun nuts" category more than grammar Germany-from-1933-to-1945?

 Little bit of a wakeup call for you, too: not all guns have magazines.
 And out of all the weapons in the game, HMGs, Combat Rifles, and SMGs are the only actual rifles. Lots of railguns and such being labeled as rifles.

 Similarly with how they flip-flopped the terms Assault and non-assault for dropships. In RL the Assault helicopter is the one that carries all the troops that will be assaulting the objective. The ATTACK helicopter is the one that escorts it.
 
 So change dropships to assault dropships and assault dropships to attack dropships!

 Most guns in this games have magazines.
 
 All the Amarr weapons don't, they're more like battery packs or fuel cells.
 
 The only gun that actually has a clip is the Mass Driver.
 
 I'm still not so sure about what the Plasma Cannon has though.

 You're going to have to elaborate on that, I find it hard to believe the HMG or SMG can be classified as a rifle.

 Actually the mass driver has a revolving cylinder, just like the revolver. And i like guns just as much as the next guy, but i dont see the big deal between clip and mag. They are both a peices of metal, that hold bullets, that slide into a gun..
 
 Yeah, i run an Amarr logi with a mass driver.. what are YOU going to do about it? |

 IIRC the Plasma Cannon has a single, large plasma cell that needs to be charged (hence the mechanic) before firing.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 Or it's a magic cell that uses nothing and produces a yellow ball of direct-impact-rape.
 
 Dropships need a buff. This way they can stop derping everywhere . ;_; >Tfw no Amarr dropship and laser turrets |

 The difference between "clip" and "magazine is not grammar; it's semantics. Can the grammar nut try to appease the semantic nuts among us as well?

 You're going to have to elaborate on that, I find it hard to believe the HMG or SMG can be classified as a rifle. A firearm with a rifled barrel is a rifle.

 A clip doesn't slide into a gun. You use it to hold bullets, and slide the bullets into the gun in some models. A magazine slides into a gun.
