are you trying to imply that each gat would be able to house a different ammo clip? firing lesmok, incendiary, and burst rounds all at the same time? talk about getting a trifecta. . .

HamsterIV:
The traditional Gatling gun is like a circular conveyer belt for the loading and firing of a bullet. Eventually the magazine runs out and you have to reload, however if you have three or more Gatling guns rotating constantly you can attach a new magazine to one while the other two are still shooting. I am not saying it is a good idea game balance wise but it would be a fun way to make an auto-loader.

Nadrynne:
There was a super gatling in the first GoI so it would be nice to see the small gatling's big sister in GoIO. Plus I like the gatling - it is fun to shoot.

Machiavelliest:
Maybe a heavy gatling with a spin-up time?  It would make it so you couldn't just instantly start shredding hull.  It should sound like the GAU-8 too.  So like a bullet-lawnmower.

An interesting balancing mechanic would be increasing jitter and shortly thereafter, damage to the component from firing extended bursts.  I mean, if you fire them for too long, they start to melt.

I also think the barrels getting red-hot and smoke generation from firing it would be some nice added flair.

Nadrynne:
Well not just on the gatling, but perhaps overheating on some guns generally could be a thing? And there could be a new gunner item which is a coolant thing?

Just a thought anyway.
