[Underrated and Overrated Small Arms in CM]

All right, I concede the point about the K98. But what about the MP-44. It has less firepower than the BAR at 40m, yet it is lighter, easier to maneuver and has a larger ammo capacity. Perhaps the FP rating for the MP-44 should be raised by 5 or 6 points at 40m.

One bullet does the job? At 500m?!

Yeah Right!

I would think that it would be a matter of volume of aimed fire at that distance. It would be really hard to hit something the size of a human at 500m. Either the m-1 should be increased a half a point of fire power or the K-98 should be decreased half a point. The increase or decrease should be even greater at 250m.

Sorry, Over-represented may have been a poor choice of words.

What I meant was that the K-98 should be modeled as less powerful compared to the M-1. I realize that this is already the case to some extent, however the numbers out at 500m are the same. Due to the fact that the K-98 had a bolt action and a smaller clip than the m-1, it seems that it should have less firepower than is currently depicted.

I'm new at Combat Mission and I just downloaded the demo a couple of days ago.

I have been very impressed with the game so far and I am planing to buy the full version of the game soon.

However I have noticed that some of the infantry weapons seem to be modeled incorrectly in my opinion. Specifically, it seems to me that the Mp-44 and M-2 Browning should be more powerful compared to other weapons in the game. Also I think that the K-98 is slightly over represented.

I was wondering if any of these things have been corrected in the full version of CM.

Also could someone explain the how relative power of small arms is determined in CM.
