Only if the opposition is weaker... when YOU carry HMGs and Cannons, and your
enemy, too, you'd better rethink the 'go in and shoot'em all' approach.
High-powered does -at least IM(maybe)HO- NOT mean 'you are strong, enemies
are weak'. It means -could mean -should mean-- EVERYBODY uses bigger guns'n'
spells'stuff then in a 'low powered' game. Heck, when everyone runs around
in Security Armor, and PACs, you'd better, too (and you are better not
surprised unequipped!), while even a pistol can be dangerous when the
'standard armor' is Armored Clothing with a ballistic rating of 3...
You gotta be careful. STOP.
