Subject: GMS in SG2 [for Oerjan]
Follow up to something you wrote earlier I meant to comment on. In SG2, the IAVR has infantry fire range bands (depends on quality of unit - 6", 8", 10", 12") and adds a FP die equivalent to a SAW to fire against infantry. A GMS probably could be fired against infantry, though no mechanic exists (really). It would probably count as an area-weapon attacking with D8 penetration against each member of the squad. This is not at all the same as the impact of an IAVR, though both have the same anti-armour effects. And GMS is rather different in that it has across-the-table, line-of-sight range with no range modifiers - only ECM affects it. Maybe that helps?
