70 mm Shotgun Cannon Use
Check the shotgun cannon entry when the build needs close defensive burst instead of sustained autocannon fire.
70 mm Shotgun Cannon Loadout Risk
The shotgun cannon punishes bad spacing: after one shell, a reload window opens while enemies can board or damage modules.
70 mm Shotgun Cannon Before Departure
Load 70 mm Shells, keep the gun facing expected boarding pressure, and leave room for the gunner to reload without blocking repairs.
- 70 mm Shotgun Cannon is a mounted close-range cannon using 70 mm Shells. The checked turret page lists physical damage, siege damage, a one-shell magazine, and range falloff.
- Load 70 mm Shell for the shotgun cannon.
