A small Railgun Bay is 50 tons and stores 12 shots worth of ammo
Railgun Bay: Though the rounds a railgun uses are low technology armour penetrators, the weapon itself uses electromagnetic forces to accelerate them to sizeable fractions of the speed of light,
delivering a high dose of kinetic energy to the target. Railgun bays contain enough ammunition for 12 attacks each. Extra or replacement ammunition can be purchased as shown on the Railgun Ammunition
table.
Railgun Ammunition
Railgun Bay Tons/Attack Cost/Attack
Small 1 Cr15000
Medium 2 Cr30000
Large 10 Cr150000
So a Railgun has the Auto 8 trait.
Auto X: These weapons fire multiple rounds with every pull of the trigger, filling the air with a hail of fire. A weapon with the Auto trait can make attacks in three firemodes: single, burst, and full auto.
Single: Attacks are made using the normal combat rules.
Burst: Add the Auto score to damage. This uses a number of rounds equal to the Auto score.
Full Auto: Make a number of attacks equal to the Auto score. These attacks can be made against separate targets so long as they are all within six metres of one another. Full auto uses a number of rounds equal to three times the Auto score.
So a single Railgun shot uses 1 round and does the regular damage. A Burst uses 8 shots, or 8 tons of ammo since one attack is 1 ton per shot. so the damage would be 3D +8
Full auto would use 24 tons of ammo and cost 360 000 Credits, and would have the player rolling 8 different attacks. I am assuming on the same target since ships are bigger than 6m apart.
Do I have these numbers right? You shoot 1 ton of material per shot?
