pricing miniature gatling styled gun ammo question

Unread post by Knight_General »

first question, i am building a nanobot hive mega character and it says that i can purchase large weapons to incorporate into the body. can i get the miniature gatling styled gun?

second question, when it says 300% ammunition does that mean i have 300% of ammunition or it costs 300% more for ammunition?

third question, what caliber of ammunition does it take?

What book/supplement are you referring to?
Are you referring to something in Aliens Unlimited, in their equipment section? Or Powers Unlimited Two?
The modern existing M134 Mini-Gun uses 7.62x51mm NATO, the XM-214 fires 5.56mm, but these are rifle rounds.
I figure the cyborg forearm machine gun depicted in Rifts as having multiple barrels probably fires 5.56mm so more ammo can be carried.

The Armies and Works that you hold Dear,
Are to him but the Playthings of the Moment,
To be turned over with the Flick of a Finger,
And the Turning of a Page"

i was referring to the miniature Gatling styled gun listed in the vehicle section of robotics in heroes unlimited 2nd edition core rule book pg. 209 no. 9
i have since moved to a .50 caliber rifle embedded into the body (with GM approval) so this thread can now be closed as i don't think it is going to help anyone else.
