As a house rule, I play it that a hardpoint mounted weapon gets recoil
compensation equal to it's body AND those double-recoil weapons are at
half (i.e., normal) recoil.

I also have a rule about people who like to mount assault cannons on
motorbikes and expect to fire them while going at top speed... :)
