Gatling Gun
Gatling guns are a weapon useful for destroying meteors and defending against hostile fighters. Bullets will do no damage to armored sections of ships. They can be loaded with two stacks of 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
