Heavy Burst Cannon

A Heavy Burst Cannon is a large Tau heavy weapon that is only ever found mounted as a primary arm weapon on the experimental XV104 Riptide Battlesuit. Developed during the Third Sphere Expansion and being a larger variant of standard Burst Cannons, Heavy Burst Cannons possess six large barrels with extended lengths and are capable of ferocious rates of fire that can mow down enemy hordes with ease. A Heavy Burst Cannon can also draw upon an XV104’s Dark Matter Nova Reactor to nova-charge its power, allowing for a devastating hail of pulse rounds that can crack even the toughest of armour with ease.
