Hoping to stay ahead of the increasing technological curve, they apparently used similar design principles to the [[Lyran Alliance]]'s [[Heavy Gauss Rifle]]. To compensate for its drawbacks, however, Horse scientists used a series of capacitors and launching tubes to fire a multitude of smaller-caliber Gauss slugs. The resulting high rate of fire, akin almost to [[Rotary Autocannon]]s, made these weapons very effective against [[battle armor]] and [[Combat Vehicle]]s.<ref name="TMp219">''TechManual'', p. 219, "Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifle"</ref> The '''HAG 40''' is the largest and most deadly of the HAG series. == Rules == <div class="gamerules"> === Game Rules === Unlike some other weapons using cluster munitions, there is no modifier on the initial attack roll. However, when a hit is scored, a Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifle receives a +2 modifier on the Cluster Hits table at short range, and a –2 modifier at long range. Modified rolls above 12 or below 2 are treated as a 12 or 2 respectively. Damage location is then determined in 5-point groups plus any remainder below 5 being the final roll.<ref name="TWp136">''Total Warfare'', p. 136, "Hyper-Assault Gauss Rifle"</ref> </div> ==Models== {{sectionstub}} ==Notes== * The HAG 40 has the highest Battle Value of any weapon that can fit on a [[BattleMech]]. == References == <references /> == Bibliography == *''[[TechManual]]'' *''[[Total Warfare]]'' [[Category: Technology]] [[Category: Weapons]] [[Category:Gauss Weapons]] [[Category:Burst-Fire Weapons]]
