NOTES FROM THE AUTHOR
===============================================================================
This FAQ lists all Raven Shield weapon stats.
AS OF VERSION 3.0, it includes the new values for weapons fitted with
suppressors, which were implemented in the 1.52 patch. Now your suppressed
assault rifle won't do 2 damage anymore! Woo-hoo!
I wrote this FAQ because I couldn't deal with planning missions without
knowing, at a glance, the relative strengths and weaknesses of each weapon.
This document is intended for personal use only. You are free to do whatever
you want with this guide, EXCEPT: you may not change it or sell it. If you
want to post it somewhere, you MUST post it in its entirety--that includes this
section; the title, version, author, and e-mail lines above; EVERYTHING from
beginning to end--NOT just the tables. Also, you MUST e-mail me to ask
permission BEFORE posting it (and I've never said "no" to anyone, but still,
ask first). Please give credit where it's due. Which, incidentally, I will do
if you e-mail me with a contribution or to point out mistakes.
IF YOU E-MAIL ME: please put "Raven Shield FAQ" as the subject. Otherwise,
seeing a strange e-mail address, I will panic and delete it.

CONTENTS
===============================================================================
Weapons are sorted by type, and are shown with their base (unmodified) stats,
plus with stats modified by accessories.
I. SUBMACHINE GUNS

I-3. Submachine Guns with Sound Suppressor

VI. PISTOLS
-----------
VI-1. Pistols--base stats
VI-2. Pistols with High-Capacity Magazine
VI-3. Pistols with Sound Suppressor
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION IS GIVEN IN EACH TABLE:
1. Ammo: What caliber ammunition the weapon takes.
2. Cap: A weapon's ammo capacity. 31x7 means 31 rounds per magazine, with 7
magazines (including the one loaded at the start of the mission). THANKS
TO PHIL CHERMAK for this information!
3. RoF: Rate of Fire. Possibilities are (S)ingle, (B)urst [3 rounds], and
(A)utomatic [full auto].
4. Rng: Range.
5. Dmg: Damage.
6. Acc: Accuracy.
7. Stb: Stability.
8. Rec: Recovery.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES ON MACHINE PISTOLS:
1. The CZ-61, MAC-11/9, Micro-Uzi, and SR-2 sometimes have two stats separated
by a slash (/). This is because they have some different characteristics
depending on whether they are equipped as a primary or secondary weapon.
The first number is the primary stat. For example, the CZ-61 has an
Accuracy rating of 30/21. This means its accuracy is 30 if equipped as a
primary weapon, 21 if equipped as a secondary weapon.
2. Machine pistols cannot equip a sound suppressor when equipped as a
secondary weapon.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES ON ACCESSORIES:
1. High-Capacity Magazines modify ONLY Stability and Recovery.
2. Sound Suppressors modify ALL stats.
3. Mini Scopes don't modify ANY stats, and are therefore not in this FAQ.
4. Same for Thermal Scope Attachments--no effect on stats.
5. Some weapons have an accessory, or its equivalent, by default. For
example, the MP5SD5 has an integral sound suppressor, so that accessory is
not available for it. In these cases, the weapon still appears in the
table for comparison purposes, with its name and stats marked by
asterisks (*).

THANKS TO...
===============================================================================
HUGE THANKS to Phil Chermak for sending me his own mini-FAQ containing all the
ammo capacity info. He also pointed out that machine pistols have different
stats depending on whether they are primary or secondary weapons, which it's
more than reasonable to assume I never would have noticed on my own.
A SPECIAL THANK-YOU goes to Phil Snowberger for suggesting a much more logical
way for me to order the tables.
Thanks to Fro-Boy for pointing out that the AW Covert has an integrated
suppressor, and that I had the MP5SD5's stats in the Sound Suppressor section
wrong.
Thanks also to Ken Winters for catching the AW Covert thing.
Thanks to Jo Schuyten for e-mailing me about the VSS Vintorez's ability to fire
full auto in addition to single.
I received an e-mail informing me that the values for weapons with suppressors
were incorrect, and soon discovered that they had been changed in the 1.52
patch. Unfortunately I deleted this e-mail after writing back to thank its
author, and don't remember his name. So whoever you are, thank you.
Special thanks to GameFAQs.com for being such a fantastic website!

FINAL THOUGHTS
===============================================================================
I am in no way associated with Red Storm Entertainment, Ubisoft Entertainment,
or...anybody, really. Just some guy. Write FAQs. That's pretty much it.
