The Z-6 uses a rotating multiple barrel assembly to bypass the refresh lag inherent in the galven circuitry that lines the barrels of blaster weaponry.
The Z-6 was considered the most evolved of this weapon type, though it only ever saw limited application during the Clone Wars. The weapon is also heavily prone to malfunction and grinds to a halt on the first roll of a 1 on the wild die for operating the weapon.ĭescription: A heavy infantry support weapon, the Merr-Sonn Z-6 Rotary Blaster Cannon debuted during the Clone Wars, though conceptually, multi-barreled rotary cannons are not without precedent in other cultures.
*: The Rotary Blaster Cannons high rate of fire means that its users can lay out a virtual wall of fire, this combined with the built in recoil compensation allows the user to make his first 5 shots without multiple action penalties, however the recoil compensation also absorbs some of the operators body movement making it much harder to dodge giving opponents a bonus 3D to hit them.
