The BW-RCG is a rotary chaingun developed by Section 6 in late YE 40. It is now manufactured by Black Wing Enterprises, and fielded by New Dusk Conclave as a frontline heavy weapon.
In late YE 40, Section 6 realized it needed to up their offensive and defensive abilities. One solution created was the S6-RCG, an infantry-portable and vehicle-portable easy emplacement option to provide high damage output on battlefield and home perimeter.
The S6-RCG was developed and run through trials before hitting field use. The battle of the Anvil taught them a valuable lesson on appropriate firepower for defense of key points, and for pushing enemy lines back.
Below is the manufacturer data on the BW-RCG.
