Weapon Comparisons
In case anyone else was wondering like me what are the differences with the weapons here's what I found.

Assault Rifle
Dmg:3-5
Crit chance:0
Crit dmg:2
Ammo:3

Weapon range: title 1: +30, title 2: +27, title 3: +24, title 4 : +21, title 5: +18, etc. (long war 2 assault rifle table)


Battle Rifle
Dmg:4-6
Crit chance:0
Crit dmg:2
Ammo:2

Weapon range: title 1: -20, title 2: -15, title 3: -10, title 4 : -5, title 5-20:0

The battle rifle uses it's own weapon table. You are rewarded with plus one dmg over the assault rifle and penalized in close range.


SMG
Dmg:2-4
Crit chance:0
Crit dmg:1
Ammo:2 mob:3

Weapon range: title 1: +30, title 2: +25, title 3: +20, title 4 : +15, title 5: +10, etc. (long war 2 SMG table)


Carbine
Dmg:3-5
Crit chance:10
Crit dmg:2
Ammo:2 mob:1

Weapon range: title 1: +30, title 2: +25, title 3: +20, title 4 : +15, title 5: +10, etc. (long war 2 SMG table)

The carbine gives only one mobility while the smg gets three. But the carbine has dmg that is the same as an assault rifle and extra crit chance, very strong weapon in my opinion.


Sniper Rifle
Dmg: 4-6
Crit chance: 10
Crit dmg: 2
Ammo:3

Weapon range: title 1: -30, title 2: -27, title 3: -24, title 4 : -21, title 5: -18, etc. (long war 2 sniper rifle table)


Marksmen Rifle
Dmg: 4-6
Crit chance: 10
Crit dmg: 2
Ammo:3 1 action to fire

Weapon range: title 1: -20, title 2: -15, title 3: -10, title 4 : -5, title 5-20:0

The same weapon table as the battle rifle, and I believe their is a move and shoot penalty

Antimaterial Rifle
Dmg: 4-8
Crit chance: 10
Crit dmg: 2
Ammo:3 2 dmg to robots

Weapon range: title 1: -60, title 2: -55, title 3: -50, title 4 : -45, title 5: -35

The antimaterial rifle has the most severe close range penalties of and gun, but the benefit is the massive dmg it deals.


LMG vs. Cannon
I was very confused about this one because the in game text states the lmg has the assault rifle aim table. I tested it and it does not.
The LMG and Cannon have the exact same stats. maybe it's a bug???

overall
Interesting changes that feel interesting and can play to certain strengths of a soldier.
