Sniper rifle, gauss- or rail- guns, swords, bows, and, a little bit less, point-blank with a shotgun or a magnum. In not sci-fi RPG's, swords and magic. In Syndicate games I liked to get a big crowd of followers with the persuadertron, make them pick up automatic weapons, equip my agents with miniguns, then all together spray a massive amount of bullets on the target... Could we call it "Lead rainway to Heaven (Zeppelin mode) / Hell (AC/DC mode)"? 
Edit @stof: suddenly remembering MDK?
