Yeah, the Recoil doesn't help. Each Phase, you can take a Simple Action other than shooting, along with your Simple Action to shoot... So, essentially, an Ingram Smartgun only ever suffers 3 points of Recoil, which is always offset by the 2 RC, and 1 minimum from Strength, and 1 free when you start shooting.
Simple Action: Fire, Simple Action: Take Aim.. well, there's my simple action of not firing, so recoil resets.. since, each Action Phase, you can only attack once, each phase, you can aim, fire, and your aim action resets recoil?
Yeah, I think this goes against what Recoil is supposed to represent.
