Changes

'''Auto weapons''' are used throughout the [[Imperium]] and are similar in operation to twentieth century automatic guns.{{Fn|3}}

They use solid ammunition rather than the easily rechargeable power packs of [[las weapon]]s, meaning auto weapons are more likely to run out of ammunition in a protracted battle. The strong point of auto weapons is that they use relatively basic technology and are capable of being produced even on low-tech worlds. Their ammunition varies from ancient 'bullets' of lead or other base metals to more advanced armour-piercing sabot rounds.{{Fn|3}}
