I love the idea (not what i had first imagined ) the concept has turned out well although only for my personal taste I would have had larger wheels but say no more.

As for the sound it makes , I would imagine some kind of noise when each charge of light is released if only from the burning of the surrounding air.

Does each rotating barrel provide a shot or do they produce the total charge needed with each full rotation

No, the barrels rotate simply to keep them from overheating when pumping out automatic big hot shots.

What about the noise of the machinery? I used to have a digital watch that made a high-pitched whine when you switched the light on so I can imagine that, scaled up to las cannon levels, could very well go "freem"!

the las-gat looks great! Very much in character

20 pages since I last posted? I scrolled through them looking for pictures. Sorry if I missed any witty comments.

The iron fence / gate looks AWESOME and now I SO need to get some of that!!!

Congrads on the Seaview showing up. It's going to be quite the project.

Legos, etc. Always cool. I still play Legos w/ my son sometimes.

The "civil war" IG isn't clicking w/ me, but it's well done. High marks for modeling.

See you in another 20 I guess. Get cracking.

So FREEM is for your standard Lascannon, right? So the Las-Gat, would have a long drawn-out FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEMMM....and then the ratcheting sound of the barrels spinning after the shot right?

I can so picture this. It's awesome!

I saw a tv show once on the physics behind Star Wars and how essentially none of that would happen. No noise, no massive fireball explosion, none of that.

Also, ever notice how in EVERY sci-fi move / tv show / etc that has a fleet of space ship, they are ALWAYS all on the same level plane as the opposing ships? Why aren't they attacking from... uhm... above? Sideways? Which way is up? Gah!

I think he was speaking of the "Blasters" like the Storm Troopers use.
Like the gatler Dave. If its an Anti-personnel one then you may use the already established Multi-Laser rules and such, but the weapon has no armor penetration value.

Yeah, the multilaser is definately an AP weapon (AP6!), but isn't it only legal on a chimera turret?

Normally yes, but you could make one smaller and on a caisson like that lascannon, most folks would find it amusing.
