I'm thinking a mounted gatling gun, balanced out similar to how blasters are compared to AR's. Short range, high ROF, lots of spread, quick heat buildup.
And since the turret would become one that you could fit on any vehicle, it would be a perfect fit for the front turret on a tank.  Then again.... maybe not.... I really don't want a tank with an HMG strapped to the front
So, what do you guys think the Minmatar turret will be? |

You forgot the rust! It can't be minmatar if a good kick doesn't make somewhat important bits fall off in a cloud of rusted metal.. |

Min tank weapons:
small Arty: think mass driver
large arty: MBT shell thats arcs, does high alpha dmg and long reload time.
small autocannon: HMG's, but now on a tank (2x the OP tears)
large autocannons: smaller bore repeating cannon |

Automatic grenade launcher, think MD but higher fire rate and unlimited ammo |

A MD turret is FAR too much. Even the fastest small turret would have to fire less than half the speed of a standard mass driver just to prevent it from becoming the ultimate win button against anything but other tanks. |

I mean I want a bunch of SMGs bolted together and attached to the vehicle with a combined trigger mechanism.
Obviously. |

Guys we all know that the turret will be a jury-rigged collection of spare parts from whatever they had in the hanger when they tried to design it. So more than likely a bunch of SMG's strapped together with duct tape. |

Autocannons historically have been AA weapons. I'd love to see the in that role instead of a different sounding blaster. |

Or since afterburners are useless for flight, perhaps we could dismantle one and turn it into a huge flame burst turret. |

Would be cool to see large autocannons be like AA flak cannon, positioned on the tank to allow a higher degree of tilt (almost 90).
Smalls would be like the heavy machine gun but more like a .50 cal than a minigun.
Small arty maybe like mortars and large like a modern howitzer (shares the same name in EVE) |

I am a little concerned that autocannons will be a little too much like blasters and artillery will be too much like railguns (though it couldn't hurt to have an actually useful version of the light railgun turret). I like the idea of a larger mass driver or an HMG turret but you still have to make them as useless as the other light turrets to keep them balanced. Tbh, I'd prefer to see more AV mechanics like the ability to drop proximity mines behind your vehicle or a stasis web light turret. |

given the colour of that vehicle I would think I see a Minmatar vehicle. The big wheels and overall design looks rather useful and meets my imagination of excellent Sebiestor craftsmanship.
I propose this vehicle in the picture to be a Minmatar LAV or MAV.
My first impression after looking at the turret (if it is a turret at all) was 'mortar'. Considering the Minmatar favouring explosive and projectile weapons and the 'doctrine' attack power and speed surpassing EWAR and other knick-knack I can imagine a fast moving, explosives spitting monster.
I say mortars, grenades and high rof projectile weapons either single or multi barreled |

The Minmatar like guerilla tactics, right? What's more guerilla than a LAV with a Mortar gun on the back? |

Speaking of that, all future Minmitar suits need to have a cloud of rust dust around them as they walk ala Pigpen. |

i think the arty should be like the MD but have a huge arc
Its reall satisfying when you get the pperfect MD shot from iles away when using a huge arc.
and in response to what are auto cannons
From EVE
"Autocannons are rapid-firing Projectile Turrets favored by the Minmatar race. They generally have a high rate of fire, weak range, and medium to low damage. They can be fitted with the following projectile ammunition types: Carbonized Lead, Depleted Uranium, EMP, Fusion, Nuclear, Phased Plasma, Proton, and Titanium Sabot.
Compared to the other short range turrets Blasters and Pulse Lasers, Autocannons have the second highest range, the fastest tracking, the the lowest activation cost (none) and the lowest fitting requirements. Speedy ships and ships with capacitor restrictions are well served by Autocannons. They also have the shortest optimal range so their effectivity quickly decreases in medium range engagements." |

Thank you.  I used to know what they were because someone told me long ago, but I discuss them so infrequently that I keep forgetting what they are.
So basically they are a mounted SMG with a slightly higher ROF? |
