The Magnetic Accelerator Cannons (or MACs) are a family of massive coilguns used by the UNSC as an integral main gun on their warships. MACs come in a number of variations for different purposes. MAC rounds have much more speed, range and damage than even a whole shipload of Archer Missiles. They are slow firing, bulky, loud, and the entire ship must align itself to make the shot connect. However, these guns are immensely powerful and long ranged, well suited to overloading energy shields and punching holes through ship armor.
This mod is originally Razortron's, which he made on request, and he allowed me to publish my version before his. This pack is for me to tweak guns to my own stats for my builds. This much-needed mod set contains seven separate fixed cannons with varying amounts of damage, reload speeds, range, and round speed.
Large-grid guns: 1x1x8
Small-grid guns: 1x1x13
