just a suggestion since i don't know how to make mods/scenarios yet...ak-47's would be a great tech for modern eras...
here's a good article that provides a reason for this

I don't agree that the AK-47 would be a good idea for a tech, maybe (very small maybe) it could be a promotion, but not a tech. The reason for this is that then I could add a tech for M-16s, UZIs, etc.

Maybe a better idea would be a tech for light weaponry like assult rifles like AK-47s, M-16s, UZIs, etc.

Maybe it would even be better as a unit (AK-47 Infantry) or Kalashnikova Rifles could be a resource to make AK-47's.

aye, maybe i should have just put this is general discussion, since i thought people would get a kick reading about ak-47's
