Description
[http://sourceforge.net/p/ufoai/bugs/258 Item 258] imported from sourceforge.net tracker on 2013-01-28 18:15:21

On the farm-map, I have seen 3 aliens armed with
only kerr-blades, and one alien that had 3 weapons:
* Plasma-rifle in hand
* plasma-atomizer
* kerrblade

That should have been distributed more evenly.

Perhaps that one was an officer?

There is no distribution of weapons from any constant pool.
That would be too predictable. Instead every alien has on
him whatever he grabbed for himself in the alien ship. So,
when an alien expends all ammo from his rifle and his
plasma-atomizer, don't assume he is weaponless. :)

Having said that, in SVN trunk aliens try a little harder to
get any sidearm if they don't have rifles, so kerrblade-only
aliens should be rarer, but still you can get 10 aliens with
only kerrblades, or only Hellfire Canisters, or only Plasma
Blasters if you are (un)lucky.
