I know we've had his conversation before. I've been swayed that they count as a weapon.(is Ammo wargear? or a weapon?)

Hmm...that is a point. What if the infrasight just mounts on a selected ammo type...? And like the if the weapon has multiple compatible profiles, then each one would need their own infra-sight...I know we've had his conversation before. I've been swayed that they count as a weapon.
As in you cannot voluntarily send an additional ammo type to the stash when you get new wargear, unlike, say, the way you can with grenades? I waffle on this. In House Lists ammo types tend to be listed with the weapon and thus in the "weapons" category. In the Trading Post, they tend to get listed as a category of wargear and equipment instead. One means you aren't allowed to stash it (the way you can, say, an infra-sight). One means you can.I know we've had his conversation before. I've been swayed that they count as a weapon.
As in gangers/specialist can't use special ammo unless they are on their house list.As in you cannot voluntarily send an additional ammo type to the stash when you get new wargear, unlike, say, the way you can with grenades?

That's a way to handle it.As in gangers/specialist can't use special ammo unless they are on their house list.
I never print fighter cards. I keep a good old roster. All my tokens go next to the minis on the table.You print your character card. You put the token on the ammo type that's loaded. Done. You might need 1 token per such weapon, but it's not even a unique token. You just need a rock or paper clip that indicates which ammo type is selected on your fighter's card. It doesn't carry over between battles, you pick the one you'd have in the "chamber" when you deploy.
There's no need for a token on the model, since ammo types don't affect WYSIWYG. If your opponent asks, you tell them, like you'd tell them if they asked what skills you have or about characteristics....
If that's too complex, the other, undesireable easy solution would be that weapons with multiple profiles are bought separately, with each profile being considered a distinct weapon. This is a low powered plasma gun, this is a super charging plasma gun. But same issue regarding WYSIWYG.
Your call, but it's an easy solution to the thing you were talking about. No real bookwork required. Yaktribe's gang builder thing makes them output printer friendly, so the only real thing is that you need to put the character into yaktribe.I never print fighter cards. I keep a good old roster.

kinda funny, honestly. I only know about this website because of yaktribe's builder. It's the big draw.I only use pen & paper. Tried Yaktribe once, way too clunky for me.
It's important that everyone is on the same page and playing by the same rules. "Gotchya" moments feel bad.Seems fair to me, though #1 doesn't kinda make me wonder if I should just keep my mouth shut on these rules questions....
oh, yeah, I'm not going to change. I just thought it was amusing to think that it might be easier on others to do it the more dishonest way.It's important that everyone is on the same page and playing by the same rules. "Gotchya" moments feel bad.
I'd continue to bring things up early and often.
are you talking about an interaction with overwatch?
Not sure I understand it the way you phrase it.changed my opinion... two sources I consulted conflicted, see the latter interpretation
