OK, the rules state you cannot receive modifiers for two smartlinks at a
time. Your method sounds OK tho. Tell me tho, why do people with smartlinks
have higher mods when using two weapons than people without? Also, (a by the
rules question) if i have a single shot weapon in each hand (like a
revolver), and have two smartlinks to them, can I fire one then the other,
and receive smartlink mods, as I'm not using them simultaneously?
On the rules for using two firearms from FoF, it would seem to me that the
higher your firearms skill gets, the worse off you are. (Here we go again)
or am I missing something? (I'll have to create an acronym for that one day,
I use it so often)
