Usage
The Gatling Gun is a medium ranged, fast firing, and inaccurate unit. When attacking, it fires slowly at first and speeds up as it continues shooting. This makes it have effectively less range, as enemies will be able to cover a decent amount of ground towards it before it even fires a single shot. Each bullet is not very accurate and doesn't deal a lot of damage, but has fairly high knockback. The Gatling Gun is very ineffective against crowds. It can perform well against single heavy hitting units, as its knockback will keep the enemy at bay, while also dealing chip damage.
The Gatling Gun is very weak to fast Unit like Raptors and the Wheelbarrow. It can't crank up fast enough to kill a Raptor.
Trivia
- The unit keeps its firing speed, and that means if it stops firing, it won't have to crank up again.
- Even with the "Ranged Units fire fast" DLC bug and with Cheerleaders, the Gatling Gun still starts out slow and speeds up.
- A single Gatling gun is able to defeat a Super Boxer and 2 Gatling guns can defeat an Ice Giant.
- The Gatling Gun Operator may spawn on the wrong side of the Gatling Gun, meaning that it could be constantly getting smacked in the stomach by that little lever.
