XCOM item weights: well a Heavy Plasma rifle is lighter than all the "real" heavies. The way it goes is this for weights: RIfle >heavy plasma rifle>autocannon>heavy cannon>rocketlauncher Note that Heavy and incendiary rockets are REALLY heavy. What I do is only give dudes 1 ammo clip or 2 rockets if they are weak, and leave more in the ship as need, so they can come back for it. Rough guide is a dude with 30+ strength can carry any heavy weapon and 1 round/clip of ammo (except heavy/incendiary rockets) without any real problem, probably get away with 2 spare clips form about 35 strength or more without any or few TUs being lost. Only dudes with 40+ strength can carry heavy/incediary rockets without losing a lot of time units. -- Silverblades Suitcase www.silverblades-suitcase.com I'd rather be a Fool who believes in Dragons, than a King who believes in Nothing
