Subject: Flechette in FF&S

Our gaming group has only recently had access to FF&S and the new weapon
tables. Someone noticed the stats for a 2cm LAG firing Flechette:

                                                _Recoil_
                          ROF  DAM  Pen Blk Mag  SS  Brst   Rng
                          -------------------------------------
2cm LAG Flechette(Short)  SA    24   1   6   5    2    -    210
    Medium-Long           SA     1  Nil


Is this for real. If so, this will toast people in battle dress! I didn't
think flechette rounds were quite this effective.

Is this a mistake?

Any helpful comments from the list appreciated.
