We have no weapons that use .50BMG Tryrar so... :P

Though I would say we use it for anti-material rifles. I'm going to assume a gun that uses that round isn't going to be light.

For sniper rifles we should use 14.5x114mm. Because our BTR-80  use that.

That is an anti tank rifle round. Way to heavy for sniping use.

Why not just go with the good old Browning .50 BMG? That thing has the punch and range for sniping... :P

That is an anti material round. Better, but still heavier then necessary.

Did anyone even propose a sniper rifle yet? We should probably go with something at least somewhat reasonable, like the .300 winchester.

Eh, I think we can leave any new suggestions for small arms for later. We got the main one, that being the assault rifle, and that's all we need at the moment. Once the next turn is up and we have more teams to spare we can do that.

One guy proposed a modern Draganov.

BMP-3s normally have a PKM, so how about a sniper in 7.62×54mmR? At some point anyways.

Note: My sugestion was not at all serious, since I realize the .50 bmg is rather overkill for simple sniping

No. I suppose there are similarities, but I'm fairly certain angry birds doesn't let me charge into a battalion of knights with a car made of circular saws.

Also, before I forget, we ought to ask for more researchers or better facilities

Proposal C: Request that more engineers be sent to us, so that we may be able to pursue more projects, whether large or small.

Proposal D: Start construction of an academy for the purposes of funnelling more engineers towards the bureau.

You also forgot UR's as well so  :-[

Mind you, with his votes in, we pretty much have a clear idea what's being developed: One tank, infantry armour, An assault rifle and an automatic grenade launcher. That for the most part should cover most of our bases for now. There's a lot more things we need, but due to only having one large projects team that's going to be slow going anyway.

Before I forget, vote for refloating the destroyer(or scrapping it if refloating isn't possible) and for my tank.

I still think that classical tank is a bad idea... there are other choices for mobile firepower.

We should probably know what we are up against, or at the very least the layout of our own country. Having all our bases covered is fine, but having our enemies covered is better.

Proposal Alpha: Discover the layout of our country and gather intelligence on likely enemies forces. Preferably number of infantry, vehicals, airplanes, etc. At the very least, find out what the major threats are.

I say a light vehicle. Or at least an innovative tank. Not reinventing a 1980s style tank

We have an alpha. Someone shortened it to A. You have Proposal Echo, if we are using military alphabet...
