The rail cannon is one of several ship weapons available for militarized spaceships. With its high projectile energy, the rail cannon outclasses all other weapons in terms of destruction; However, it is hindered by a high power consumption and heat output, requiring significant investment in power generation to effectively utilize it.
Basics
- Rate of fire: Single shot, slow
- Spread: None
- Projectile speed: Very fast
- Note! Requires a charge-up!
Requires 1 Rail Cannon Mag and 4 Utility Ammo Mags installed into Rail Cannon Ammo Structure.
Ship usage
Rail cannons can be found on following ships either by default, or as a variant:
