[Falso]

I'm happy about the boating penalty for all large damage/heat weapons but I would add one slight tweek.

Since the Guass Rifle being energy based to charge the "barrel" and can have a significant damage effect when said weapon is destroyed, I would say the same should be true to a lesser degree with the PPC.

I would think something in the neighborhood of 1/4 to 1/3 the damage received by an exploding gauss rifle, so it wouldn't be catastrophic unless you had 6 of them.

This would discourage boating and make for a more realistic damage mechanic IMHO.

I would even prefer this in place of the heat penalty for more than 3 PPC's or w/e.

What do you all think?
