A 20 mm heavy machine gun. Why?

Because I wanna see how it works on shields  :D
With the rapid increase of FS fan-made campaigns, we're giving the GTVA a harder time with more violence and genocide.

That all falls down to how they function. Every game I've played with ballistic weapons typically have no effect on shields.

A rapid-fire, computer-controlled radar and gun system - capable of firing at a rate of more than 4500 rounds per minute - used primarily for close-defense situations - uses closed-loop radar technology to locate, identify, and direct a stream of highly destructive 45mm projectiles to the target.

That is so descriptive you can't believe. :rolleyes:
Again, that doesn't tell us ****. It could be firing 45mm projectiles of just that for all we know.

Don't need to, I've played FreeSpace, I know what the Tech Room says about the Avenger which is WHY I just questioned what it exactly fires, because it DOES NOT SAY.
