I designed the MPAW to be a Urban weapon, more or less due to the confined quarters fighting that is part and parcel of living in Space. Bullpup to reduce
overall weapon length to be easier to move in close quarters, accurate up to mid-range, including shotgun functionality to allow extra capabilities, and a 40mm
grenade launcher for heavy targets. Yes I wimped going for 5.56 NATO rather than 7.62 NATO, but figured Fen-spec AP ammo would make up most of that.
Basically, it's a weapon designed for typical Fen actions in ships and constructed stations.
The MARS weapons mix is interesting and logical, given what they seem to be going up against normally.
It's always interesting to see what other people come up with.
