'''Gatling guns''' are a [[:Category:Weapon|weapon]] useful for destroying [[meteor]]s and defending against hostile [[fighter]]s. Bullets will do no damage to armored sections of ships. They can be loaded with two stacks of [[Ammo#Bullets|bullets]] at a time, and fire in a small but wide arc at a high rate. | |||
Gatling guns do not require a [[crew member]] to operate them, they will automatically fire at meteors and hostile ships. Gatling guns will only fire while in Battle Stations mode, this includes firing at meteors. | |||
They must be placed in the [[Hull]]. The object itself is of size 3 x 2, need an unobstructed area in front of 3 x 6 and internal space of 3 x 1 and a space for the crew to operate it (the middle tile behind the object), giving an overall space of 3 x 9 + 1 | |||

{{History|Alpha 4|Now unmanned, and will automatically extend and fire when 'Battle Stations' is called}} | |||
{{History|Alpha 12|No longer has any 'Penetration'. It will not cause hull breaches, nor damage any internal equipment, and is virtually useless against armored hulls.}} | |||
