It seems that this blaster was almost made to be balanced against the Vulcan.

Think about it, for every pro it has over the Vulcan there seems to be a con.

Pro: Magazines mean quick reloads.

Con: The capacity is limited to at most 108 with triple flip clips. Reliability is down over the belt-fed mechanism as well.

Pro: The range is better than the Vulcan's.

Con: Slugs cannot be used (the flywheels would not be able to catch the heads very well), meaning the Vulcan can be more accurate at range.

Pro: The possible rate-of-fire is higher than the Vulcan's.

Con: The mass and configuration make it extremely hard to use as a mobile platform, making the Vulcan the better all-around blaster.
