Weapon Specialist/Forward Marksman
    "You have an insertion team and on-site intel.  But you still need me to make your plan work.  Seems to me that if your team gets pinned down at any of the security choke points along your escape route then you're royally hosed.  Am I wrong?
    "I thought so.  Well let's talk price then.  If we have an agreement, then you've just hired yourself a guardian angel."
Commentary:  Born of the 20th Century SWAT untis, the Weapon Specialist performs a basic duty in small unit engagements that most Shadowrunners tend to forget about.  The guy who provides covering fire.  What 'Post Engagement Analyst' call suppresive fire.  In Shadowrunning teams the Weapon Specialist also takes on the roll of sniper and communications coordinator.  This position is sometimes referred to as Forward Marksman, since she has to work as both marksman and spotter.  Also the Weapon Specailist's familiarity with a wide range of weapons and their maintenance allows them to take care of the team's ammo and weapons acquisition needs.  But in the final analysis the Weapon Specialist is there to put lead in the air.
