Still plainly worth having; no longer mandatory. + +**R-229 · full auto was a firing squad.** Ten independent hits off one critical, each +with its own damage roll, hit location and Major Wound check. Against a hard target it +was the correct answer to everything. Hits are now **capped at 3/5/7** rather than +proportional to the burst, and however many rounds connect, **a burst is one wounding +event** and rolls the Major Wound table at most once. + +**R-230 · Engines deleted the pressure it was supposed to create.** Guns +2 and Helm ++1 against a vent of 3 made a standard fighting round heat-NEUTRAL — the craft cooled +while it fought, and Heat only existed when the engineer failed or was absent.
