Whitelion Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Gatling Macrocannon, the last wonderful devilry I have read about, three-barreled Macrocannon firing in rapid succession, apparently in BFG Armada they are present, only the Ark Mechanicus mounts them, I read about it here: https://forums.focus-home.com/topic/384/ship-profiles/51 I also found them in the 3d print packs of the BFG Armada weapons. Has anyone seen them or read about them somewhere? Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366284-gatling-macrocannons-in-bfg/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xenith Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Ain´t those mountable on warlord titans hardpoints? Six barrels or is it 3 twinlinked rolling around? That's a macro-gatling cannon, not a gatling macro-cannon One's a gatling cannon that's big, one's a gigantic cannon with additional barrels.

Whitelion Posted September 4, 2020 Author Share Posted September 4, 2020 no, they are Macrocannons, the side guns in macrobatteries, only they have three barrels and fire in rapid succession, like a gatling machine gun. It's something I like a lot, I would say Link to comment https://bolterandchainsword.com/topic/366284-gatling-macrocannons-in-bfg/#findComment-5596052 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Tyler Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Gatling macrocannons aren't mentioned in any of the BFG articles I have for the Adeptus Mechanicus. The image in the site you linked looks like it came from the Rogue Trader RPG from FFG. If these weapons have a basis in official lore/rules, I suspect that it can be found in either the Rogue Trader game or in one (or more) of the novels listed as references on the Ark Mechanicus page at Lexicanum.

Beren Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 It also kind of reads to me like it might be just an example of the kind of esoteric weapon an Ark Mechanicus might have, rather than an in depth description of a recurring device.
