    Description:
    When furbyxxx told me about the M109 paladin, i was interested in finding
    out what an M109 was. After a brief google search, i had found my next
    project. Just imagine what a gun the size of a small building can do... raw
    power right there. Vehicle interior is inaccessable due to it's construction.
    Disclaimer: Yes, i built the thing in Foundry. I fail. Standoff wouldve been
    a nicer place to make it but with its lack of... well... dumpsters, i decided to
    put the vehicle in a Motor Pool setting.

    It will be able to fire later on, i just need to figure out the Man Cannon placement since the barrel is too small to slide one in

    Once you get it to fire, have it shoot a fusion coil that is set to instant respawn. Then it would be an actual weapon.

    That would be lag, set it to ten second respawn, but not instant.

    Well i guess you guys REALLY want the thing to be operational. While i was at school, I thought of a way to make it work: horizontally-opposed Man Cannons. One side counter-propells the other and increases the projectile velocity without slamming around in the barrel. kinda the same way an aircraft engine works. MK.2 will be released as soon as i can perfect the firing system. If you notice something else that needs modifying, please message me.

    No, it wouldn't lag. The fusion coil won't respawn untill it hits and blows up.

    Alright, you asked for it and you got it... The M109 Paladin is now locked and loaded!
    8 Direct opposing Man Cannons launch a fusion coil from the vehicle every 10 seconds.
    (reasonable reloading time) Due to it's unstable nature and use of limited two-sided
    repelling forces the cannon is prone to misfires but they should not happen often.
    A picture of the Live Fire version is available at the beginning of the thread.
    Have fun!

    You should create a structure for it to constantly pelt.

    The way the vehicle is positioned, the angle of the barrel and the power of the gun prevent the projectiles from touching the ground, they hit the ceiling and detonate.
    perhaps i'll make a different one that can shoot at specified targets.

    WOAH! that looks exactly like the M109 except the cannon is too wide, but I don't think you can really do much about it. 10/10 :)
