Autofire Swept HTH attacks

[Zed-F]

In order to use rapid fire with an autofire ranged attack, one must buy Rapid Autofire. Is there any equivalent for sweep with autofire HTH attacks?

The rules don’t list one, because Autofire HTH attacks tend to be pretty rare, and their use with Sweep even less common (as opposed to Autofire firearms and similar Ranged attacks, which are very common in many genres). In a game where the GM expects Autofire HTH attacks to get used a lot with Sweep, he should certainly create a Skill equivalent to Rapid Autofire — let’s call it Rapid HTH Autofire — or just let Rapid Autofire work for both.
