Combined with the refs I was working from and Binkerman's Brain not plugged in, .. I was faced with a wall of Trees and no light switch to find the 'Common Sense' Button

LOL, so you accidentally bumped into the 'what would McGuyver do on drugs' button instead? Gotcha

With the Assault cannon the "free-barrels" I think is less to increase the Rate of fire but allow each barrel to cool before it fires again to accommodate the rate of fire and reduce wear on the cannon barrels meaning it may take a couple of hundred thousand rounds to fuse/destroy the barrels instead of 1000..

Reality is like a kick in the balls, you see something you like and WHAM.

@ Meph:

Heh .. something like that ... If only I had some chewing gum, a safety Pin and a couple of sweet wrappers, I could have made that thing work using my McGuyver 'Ten easy steps to building anything' booklet ....

Better get back on track, Im hijacking my own thread. ...

@ Kadaeux:

Fortunately Kitt, I have a Ten year warranty on those Barrels

Sorted the Front Cannon, which is now functional .... The 6 Barrels can rotate behind that fixed muzzle at the front without any obstruction, .. plus more accurate to how its supposed to be ....

Thanks again guys for the help on that part ...

There's also an interesting bit of fluff that says that the barrels in the autocannon are regularly changed, usually between sorties/missions. So the "ten year warranty" may be a little ambitious!

Also remember that Warhammer stuff is about the only sci-fi where you can change the design slightly and people won't care much that it's not 100% can(n)on
