Used the first stuff that came to hand, Colt M4 - ?, and moved on through HK636, HK611K5 etc The Neostead has to be the best short range weapon available.... I tried clearing a big alien ship using LMG's and got gutted. retried with entire squad using Neostead's on entry... and got shot up... but shot them up far better.. No deaths. 3 out of 7 of the squad were wounded though.. but at least they weren't dead! Anybody tried using those alien plasma guns? the very heavy ones? Seem useless to me. Dave
