There are far better choices of platform to be used as an actual rifle would.
Fighting is pointless.
Just playing along.
It's not for people that's why it's called an anti materiel rifle. Also that presumes a lot about my picture (such as that it even is an AMR let alone what kind of combat is happening or the context - none of which is defined)
Or that is to say you're getting very uppity about information you yourself imposed.
There is no seriousness with which I speak. And as such, it is only for the sake of starting conversation that I brought it up. Don't worry about it.
AMRs actually are not meant for vehiclular targets, but are meant for increased chance to kill at much longer ranges(Look up effective range: 1.5 miles, 2.414KM), and for firing through appropriate armor or cover to hit targets. They do not however have the penetration to go through actual armored plates of any meaningful thickness beyond a certain (relatively short) distance.
So yeah. They ARE meant for people, more to the point, the "Material" part in their title is referring to heavy body armors. You don't go for headshots after all at such ranges. The philosophy behind them is that other marksman rifles, despite everything, lose too much of their power to get through body armors at longer ranges. (Even light armours often) And so you need something closer to a cannon to put a round through them at those ranges sufficiently often enough to be reliable. To take them down beyond extended engagement ranges with a single round.
I know a lot more but, that would probably just irritate you, as I may accidentally seem like I'm trying to call you stupid, and I apologise if that's the case, really sorry. I do not believe that, and that is not what I was going for, just, innocent conversation.
What of partial hybridization, while driving your vehicle use the somewhat wonky but useful command menu style orders, and then swap to a full quality strategy view. Not so hard as you think.
