As you know gatligns have 50 cal rounds capable of ghetting deep into even tank armour... so give them the ability to do damage to the units behind their attack(jsut mod cleave and whatnot)

Seeing as nobody else has any opinions on this topic, i'll post my thoughts. For 1.17, which I'm hoping to finish up tomorrow or saturday, I'm going to see how well the +1 dmg does ingame. If there still is a balance issue then I will consider reversing the buff and replacing it with a special ability of some sort.

Serenity

I think gatlings should have two modes
One where they can move but not fire
One where they can not move but fire
The main reason is they weigh around 400lbs generally without ammo
Some models (the Russian one I wikied) can burn through 9000-10000 rounds a minute
Now then, keeping it supplied would be very hard, it is more of a stationary weapon as well, it would be very hard to fire without something to help brace it.

Um... gatlign guns are no longer that heavy... i mean old ones maybee but we have new high powered mounted machien guns that can fire like 6k rounds a minute and only weigh 60 or so pounds without amo. also theres a few new ones out that have almost no recoil atol and still have quite a good caliber and a good speed.

-mounted-
Aka not carried by infantry
They are mounted on things

The point is gatlign guns as such are no longer used. We now use heavy machine guns and assault rifles.

Halakbalakbalak

True thats why we either buff them or change the name to somthing else.

Serenity

We could replace it with the FN MAG Medium Machine gun

That might work but im still opping for it to have a mounted and an unmounted ability... when its mounted it gets a 50 health bonus since it would be in a building or something.

Nos-Feratu.

Why not just do the mounting so they can finally attack? Like Serenity said.
Unmounted = no attack but can move.
Mounted = can attack but cannot move.

I believe that's a pretty good trade!

TheRussianLord

For a unit already underpowered, you're suggesting nerfing it further?

Nos-Feratu.

No, I'm suggesting you buff it, then do the mounted/unmounted concept.

If you ask me, it's much more original.

Halakbalakbalak

Or... we can make it so we have a humvee skin... and put a ****ing machien gun on it -.-

King Stubby

that was kind of random...

Anyways, what if they had a small line attack against infantry, since they are so powerful?
