Rapid Fire & Two-Weapon Fighting

[Wildcat]

Steve,

Can a character using 2 SMGs, the Two-Weapon Fighting Skill, and the Rapid Autofire skill as well, Rapid fire both of her weapons. Readign the Rules & the FAQ are leading me to say NO, but it seems to make dramatic sense to alow this, Although that IS a lot of Lead flying down range at once.

 

Thanx for your answer

He could (assuming the GM permits it, of course — as you say, it’s a lot of lead, and some GMs may not be comfortable with that). Of course, standard penalties apply, so he’s going to be at -2 OCV per burst after the second (and that means overall, not per hand, given the way TWF works), at -2 DCV, and so on.
