STRENGTHS
  • Like a truck: The ON1-053 Is a larger more power rail gun. With the upgraded power source, the magnetic coils are now able to launch their payloads farther and faster than every before. The upgraded size and barrel length also gives the slugs more time to pick up speed and velocity before being fired. Needless to say, anything that is standing in front of the ON1-053 will not be standing much longer after it has been fired.
  • I like my choices: The ON1-053 slugs have a variety of different payloads that can be used with the weapon:
    • Shaped Charge rounds: For penetrating the most heavily armored vehicles and bunkers
    • Voidstone rounds: These rounds, once exploded, cover the area in voidstone dust, can be set to a timer
    • High Explosive rounds: For when you just need a bigger explosion
    • Guided rounds: With a built in computer, these rounds track the target once the gun has gotten a lock
    • Shrapnel round: Set to a timer, these rounds explode in flight and shower an area in razor sharp micro explosives
WEAKNESSES
  • By Golly That's Big: Due to the increased barrel and additional power sources, the ON1-053 Is one big weapon, it is extremely difficult to carry and move without the help of an exoskeleton making it almost impossible for the average person to use. Even with additional help, there will be no outstanding feats of athleticism with this gun equipped. One might be able to run short distances but prolonged runs are out of the question.
  • It took my arm off: Due to the extreme power of the weapon, the recoil is also quite insane. If a normal person were to fire this weapon they would almost certainly break their arm and shoulder or worse yet, have it torn completely off. Once again an exoskeleton or something similar is needed to prevent such a devastating effect. Even when fire with one equipped, the user might find themselves a decent few inches from where they first fired.
  • Be back in five: Because this weapon operates on slugs and a power cell this weapon takes a long time to reload, both the power cell and ammo are not light either making it rather difficult to carry around.
DESCRIPTION
The ON1-053 Magnetic Acceleration Cannon aka 'The Harbinger' is a rail gun with the stopping power of a meteor. At 2.2 meters long and weighing as much as a full grown adult, the MAC gun fires 50 MM slugs with a variety of payloads giving the weapon a multitude of different purposes from nullifying Jedi to taking out heavily armored vehicles. Unfortunately with the extreme destruction that this weapon can cause comes a variety of drawbacks. Firstly, the weapon is extremely cumbersome and not something meant for the middle of the battlefield. The ammo and power cells are heavy as well making stationary use the only reality. Thankfully the ON1-053 has outstanding range which means even stationary the user should be far from the actual combat
