Hey, motorcycles with machine guns are perfectly useful defensively, you can roll them into place wherever the enemy is attacking, and back off at the same high speed if you're being overrun. A malleable defense is better than a rigid one.

But fine, if vehicle machine guns aren't valid, then I'll have to come up with something even sillier.

Would making the bike the transport, and the machine gun emplacement mobile be fine? Something that can reposition to rain fire down on enemy lines, then move on once the fire gets tough. Kinda like a machine gun tower piece with a ton of ammo and 4 barrels, so it fires at four times the bullets per second.

The bike is for moving it around, and these towers can act as defensive emplacements. And more room to engineer them if they are made to be towed behind the bike. The towers can also just be detached in places for static defenses.

Maybe we should make the weapon this time and the merry-go-round to mount it on later.

Wasn't range turn 4? Is the name really that bad for the machine gun?

Fallacy might have the deciding vote. Pick the one with the revised bullets mixed in!

I can make crazy designs, but they don't actually get any votes.

The Piorun is intended to have its slugs revved into exploding slugs anyway, why not start out with them? We already have exploding rounds, and our action economy has already had the hurt put on it because of them, might as well recoup our losses here.

I asked but no one said anything so I'll add them now.

Added.
