About minigun based weapons on my Fleet:

The standard soldier-carried minigun has 6 barrels in a circle that spins.

Take 6 of those and make a mini out of it, and you get a light Point Defense Cannon. Can shoot both bullets and plasma bolts.

You can make Dual and Quad Point Defense Laser Cannons with those.

That is a Cat 2 minigun.

a Cat 3 will be a heavy Point Defense Cannon. A Cat 5 would be an Orbital Bombardment Gun. Barely mobile.

Now imagine a Cat 10 minigun installed within the long axis of an Imperial Star Destroyer.

Now imagine a Cat 100 as the Superweapon of Furnace. It will lag RandomForumFight.exe to death before anyone can do anything.

and yes, the Furnace does possess such a Cat 100 weapon. It can also become a Starkiller Base weapon.

Oh, and the Cat 2 to 5 miniguns are on all the ships.
