What gets me is that a nice electro can dump more paint on semi than most mechs can. Anyone that thinks a semi only rule makes it fair is just ignorant. If fields want to make it fair then cap the electros at the realistic top speed of the average mech (like that would fly) or start renting guns that can keep up with the average electro.

My little brother has a semi only Impulse and I can rip it way faster than my A-5 rt will ever go. I swear the thing fires if you cough to hard in close proximity. I can only imagine how fast the electros on the market now shoot. Trigger pull makes a bigger difference than most people realize and there is just no comparison between a full mech and a microswitch. It's not that anyone needs to shoot that fast but an electro gives a definate advantage to those who prefer accuracy by volume which is sadly the majority of young players today it seems.

Personally I love going up against Angel toting punk rich kids with my Phantom. At the same time I couldn't see how any first timer could not be frustrated enough with their rented 98 to never want to play again.
