U.G.A. "Shredder" Anti-Air Gun

[doodstormer]

The U.G.A. Anti-Air gun, named the "Shredder" for obvious reasons, has a design similar to the Hammerfist, with large amounts of armor plating in the front. It has a very high rate of fire, almost 20 bullets per second. Ammunition is fed through the side, by a long "belt". It is quite efficient in destroying aircraft, though a common weakness is that enemy infantry will occasionally hit the ammo feed, causing a rather unfortunate explosion.


There's also a panel to shield the gunner from discarded shells while he's shooting.


Movie style shot. Gotta love epic "Why am I standing next to this guy?" moments.


"Ouch. Sucks to be you."

There's just one more to go. Expect it sometime Sunday.

I really like the bullets being fed into the gun. Excellent use of the "vented brick" (for lack of a better term).

Very nice, I hope it does good in battle. How bad is the explosion?

calculating stats for AA guns always makes me angry. lots of them technically ARE rapid-fire explosive weapons, but calculating the UR of something that fires several rounds per second and explodes on contact is a bitch.

so far, what i DID end up coming up with in a similar vein are Armor-Piercing rounds from an automatic gun. It'd work basically the same way automatic weapons work for other weapons, except instead of doing +1 damage for every skill point you go above the UR, it does +1d6 damage points. keep in mind that the UR for something like this would be high, so the excess skill would be low.

[Almighty Benny]

you can always just assume that all AA guns are treated like flak cannons, and then use minefield rules for calculating hits.

Great. It's all i can say about U.G.A.

pretty nice gun :]
and for the rules I like both of them but I think Almighty benny'sone adds a bit more spice to the game.
