Miniguns would be lots'a fun. They would be very powerful, but very
cumbersome and heavy to drag over the battlefield as well. Mount it on
a HWP?

Then once you researched alien alloys you could replace your current
equipment with alien-alloy based equipment of the same type by paying
a fee for each piece of equipment upgraded or changed. It would be
great. Alien alloys would make it lighter, increase the ammount of
ammo you could take with you, give better accuracy and range and power
etc.

Principles are not like taxi cabs. You can't just use them to get where you want to go and then dismiss them.
