I also agree, on the condition that the HoS starts off with an egun in his locker. Sometimes you can spawn as HoS with no security at all, that can be pretty tough to say the least, you need something robust incase stuff goes to shit, especially if you join late in the round.
I like the idea of spackers loaded with safety rounds, but what advantage would this be over a taser?
I presume by baton round, you mean the syndicate pod baton shot, and not actually firing stun batons
They cause brute damage and don't cause bleeding if i remember correctly? In that case, yes.
Also, fuck heavy armor. What's the point? I went around one round with heavy armor when a wizard was fireballing peeps and it still does shit-all when it comes to blast damage. Most of the time when you get caught up in a blast you die from the space tile that was blown from your feet.
Replace heavy armor with armored space suits.
Also, what do you think of riot shields? I personally think it'd be pretty cool if when having a riot shield in the hand, the clicking yourself with the help intent prompts a message:
Sundance Feely raises his riot shield!
The riot shield would block projectiles from which ever way you are facing (you are vunerable to getting hit at the side). The riot shield cannot be used when you are running, only when standing (maybe walking?) so it'd be shit if you are trying to chase someone.
