Still having fun messing about with patch 1.03.1. I think I like the Curtis rifles more than Rantetsu RFs. Though you have to manual reload a lot for better uptime & 140 recoil control is required.
Higher projectile velocity & burst DPS than Rantetsus but the magazine size is awkward. Longer effective range means you're competing with less cursed things..
Still basically outclassed by amped laser pistols in this role apart from impact force (rapid fire high muzzle velocity mid range)

The developer has been working on a 3D sequel with 6 degrees of freedom for almost a decade (think Armored Core 6, Ace Combat etc. but with these kind of ships). Everything related to it is on niconico so RIP Tsurugi no Mai (yab 2013): Stage 5 with Sword Breaker, Desperate difficulty [tough] / ツルギノマイ](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_9NgNLoa_pw/mqdefault.jpg)

![KILL KNIGHT [Sever, archblight]: Full clear 4,966,011 (1.0.0, V-V-II-V-II)
Full game mode set to lower difficulty but rearranged with nastier enemy spawns than any of the stage by stage difficulties. This heavy weapon is pretty silly. Im looking forward to messing with the sniper and shotgun more later KILL KNIGHT [Sever, archblight]: Full clear 4,966,011 (1.0.0, V-V-II-V-II)](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/_qewH0AG3SE/mqdefault.jpg)
