a simple sniper rifle that can deal 400-800 damage to vehicles.
not enough to do serious damage to them but enough to deter vehicles out of sniper locations.
to troops it would do reduced damage.
this could be the assault variant for sniper rifles and come at the cost of ammo capacity or reload time. |

Until we have more advanced tanks, ones that are not militia tanks in disguise, there should be no new AV weapons. However, it would be pretty sweet to have an AV weapon that does less than 1000 damage!
i'm fine with it being heavy only |

forge guns fire slow moving explosive rounds with a charge time, that instant kill infantry if they connect.
I want a single shot long range rifle, that has bonus damage on vehicles, it would use the sniper rifle skill but be a heavy only weapon.
it's not an assault rifle, it's not an automatic weapon in any form, and as mentioned above is based on already existing weapons.. |

the long range sniper rifle should allow for av's at greater range then the forge gun if need be, and should function against tanks hiding in the hills. or fast moving LAV's. I didn't want it to take the place of the forge gun which is the heavy hitter.
since the damage would be lower then most lav's they should be able to get into cover if the rifle is slow firing enough anyway. so you want a forge gun with zoom?
if that's what you think it is, you probably cut your steak with a spoon |

well considering the rail guns we use in dust should be all means already be anti tank, I see no reason why not.
the snipers we use currently should be firing at ridiculous speed( no drop off at up to 600 meters instantaneous ) and only needs to fire small projectiles, that's generally enough to put a hole in any tank anyway, if you specialize it into a heavy weapon variant firing specialized rounds I could easily see it being used, why it wouldn't end most infantry is really a matter of game balance then logic, it's the same reason a tanks missile turrets in dust have the same explosive radius as a water balloon. |
