These numbers don't seem unrealistic to me, stock SH4 HE ammo seems very underpowered.
Increased the storage numbers simply because I seem to always run out on long patrols.
I won't try to justify my choices further, if you like the mod, great, if not then by
all means download the mini tweaker and adjust to taste.
That being said, enjoy blowing stuff up!

Cheers

It's really not to special just a bit of an increase for more playability, but not enough to ruin the realism, I hope

Enjoy, and thank timetravaller/nvdrifter for making it possible.

Where is the tweak file for the .Zon files? I'd like to nerf the deck guns somewhat.

Now just nix the muzzle flash and we have a keeper!

Honestly I don't remember where I got it, check nvdrifter's post's

I've found his .Sim files for the guns, but can't find the .Zon ones, they're also not on his Filefront site. Would you mind PMing them to me?
