Fanon:Minigun

The Minigun is a Tier 4 tank that upgrades from the Gunner. It cannot upgrade further.

Design
The Minigun has a circular body like most other tanks, and has five overlapping barrels of the same length bound together by a rectangle near the tank's base, and a rectangular base connected to the tank itself.

Technical
The Minigun behaves like a Gunner and a Machine Gun combined. It fires tiny bullets that move extremely quickly in a very wide spread. It really has 8 barrels (three of them are hidden below the visible ones). When firing, the barrels move to the right of the tank and appear on the left of the tank again to give the appearance that the barrel is rotating quickly. A max reload Minigun has slightly more bullets than the Auto Gunner, since each barrel fires every 0.9 seconds (almost 9 bullets per second.) Base reload is 1.6 seconds, so there is a bullet every 0.2 seconds (5 bullets per second.) Each point of reload decreases each barrel's reload by 0.1 seconds, unlike other tanks where reload works differently.

There is little difference between firing continuously and in bursts with this tank, due to its absurdly wide spread.

Strategy
Strong Against: Groups of tanks, Smasher branch, pretty much any tank that is used to ram, low RoF tanks, anything that's close to it

Weak Against: Drone classes, Sniper classes, ranged focused fire tanks, surprise rammers/Destroyers

Trivia

 * A spread version of the Vulcan (I literally just added 70 spread to it and this came out, and it worked :P).
 * Because the Vulcan is one of my favourite tanks.
 * Because diep needs the obvious minigun-like minigun.
 * Was gonna have spin time, but was scrapped.
