  • Smartgunner Option An option to reduce the number of gunners required to man these systems, allowing for a sharper brain to operate the systems without second guessing.
  • Punchy The use of Ethaerium in the gas system has kept the damage output of the weapon to a high level despite alterations.
  • Fast Tracking The reduced weight of the system allows for the integrated targeting system to better keep up with the most recent starships and weapons in the galaxy.

  • Large and Soft While the assembly is large in size, the strange alloy composing the weapon system makes it a softer target than usual.
  • Explosive Ethaerium in the system makes for a very alarming explosive mix when incoming fire is added to the equation, potentially ruining not just the gun but the section the weapon is attached to.
  • EMP When the Smartgunner system is active, and an EMP knocks the system out, a full restart of both the weapon system and the computer system is required.

Seeing the galaxy at large producing faster and more nimble starships and munitions, the need to update an old point defense system to modern standards was made clear.

Rather than design something entirely new, PGEM began with what was already produced and began tinkering. Retaining a healthy portion of the original design, the system was stripped down and reconfigured with newer modules while integrating older systems. Updating the gas feed with one of her favored fuel products, integrating a smartgunner chip into the added sensor package to allow the system to operate independent of an organic operator, and making the alloy compound a different blend to reduce the weight of the actually oscillating weapon system. A change that required her to change the base design and ultimately making the design unviable with the Veritable Turret Base System as most of the systems from the other are already included in this model.

Content with the modifications, the design was uploaded to the PGEM system for production.
