A clank gun (or machine cannon) is, simply, a projectile weapon used by a clank soldier-unit; specifically, what a Wulfenbach clank wields. It's set apart from "normal" gunnery by its size and power. Theoretically this weapon can only be lifted, positioned and fired by a clank built to handle the weight and recoil of such a weapon. As such, units wielding it possess both the mobility of (heavy) infantry and the firepower of (light) artillery. It appears to be a single-barrel autocannon weapon enveloped in a barrel jacket.

  • A clank gun (or machine cannon) is, simply, a projectile weapon used by a clank soldier-unit; specifically, what a Wulfenbach clank wields. It's set apart from "normal" gunnery by its size and power. Theoretically this weapon can only be lifted, positioned and fired by a clank built to handle the weight and recoil of such a weapon. As such, units wielding it possess both the mobility of (heavy) infantry and the firepower of (light) artillery. It appears to be a single-barrel autocannon weapon enveloped in a barrel jacket. It is not possible to determine at this time how the ammunition is fed into the clank gun's chamber; when the clank soldiers use them, there is a possibility it might be fed from a storage chamber in the clank's casing rather than a cartridge installed on the gun.
