	The continuous hail of projectiles that Multi-cannons fire are relatively easy to keep on-target and can be fired at the same time as other, more energy-thirsty weapons such as lasers due to their low distributor draw, making them very common weapons among pilots. Their damage does not begin to drop off at range as quickly as that caused by laser weapons does. All Multi-cannons have a maximum range of 4000m, with damage dropping off past 1800m. Projectile velocity for all Multi-cannons is 1600 m/s.

	The downside to Multi-cannons is that they require fire to be maintained on the target continuously to deal damage, and this damage is gradual compared to some other types of weapon. They struggle especially against larger ships because of their relatively low armour piercing values being pitted against high [[Armour Hardness]]. As kinetic weapons they also are less effective against shields.

	Multi-cannons also have a hidden attribute: a firing delay as they "spin-up". When the trigger is pushed, the weapons will not fire for a short amount of time while they reach the rotational speed required. If the trigger is released during this time, they will spin down without having fired. This means they are better at sustained fire rather than shorter bursts. Spin-up delay is minor but increases with the class of the weapon, with Class 3 having a notably longer delay. This may make Class 3 Multi-cannons less effective against small, nimble ships that allow for minimal time on-target.		Multi-cannons also have a hidden attribute: a firing delay as they "spin-up".

	The Class 4 Multi-cannon is notably different in that it fires higher calibre shells at a slower rate, rather than an stream of projectiles (see note below). They also have substantially better armour piercing capability, and do not have spin-up delay.
