Think of it this way the round in the gun THEN the other 42 rounds blow up.

MAYBE THE EXPLOSION FORM THE GUASS RIFLE CAUSE AN AMMUNITION BIN FOR ANOTHER WEAPONS SYSTEM TO EXPLODE. SORTA LIKE HAVEING A FIREWORKS STAND NEXT TO A GAS STATION, CHAIN REACTON. JUST A THOUGHT.

Your caps lock button is stuck.

Also I don't think I'm buying an Atlas from the Dracs, don't want half my 'Mech to disappear in the middle of combat.

It's okay, I'll be running circles around you aiming for that rifle anyway.

couldn't the gauss rife have critted the leg right off, then the atlas tipped over and triple critted the CT and destroyed the reactor. the gauss rifle didn't necessarily blow the mech to iddy bitty pieces

I'm sure this setback will be fixed by the time the Atlas-7K goes on sale. After all, it's still in closed beta testing.

BREAKING NEWS from Yori Mechworks
with Tim Sawyer Channel 83 News,
You bring the story, we'll bring the cameras

Tim: Tom, I'm standing approximately 400 feet away from the wreckage of an experimental weapons test from Yori Mechworks.

Tom back in the Studio: So what are the higher ups saying about this test?

Tim: Well Tom, the officials on scene are not saying anything to the press, but apparently an experimental

"Gauss" rifle, exploded and destroyed the mech.

Tom: Well Tim that's alot of wreckage, what 'mech was it mounted on?

Tim: Apparently, it was mounted on an Atlas chassis.

Tom: Wow, that's alot of C-bills down the drain...

Tim: Right you are Tom, apparently this "Gauss" rifle, fires an accelerated projectile at hypersonic speeds.

Tom: Like an Autocannon.

Tim: Yes, but this is more similar to slug ammunition instead of being explosive, it's just basically a superfast bullet.

Tom: Like an autocannon.

Tim: Tom, it's not an autocannon. The metal balls cannot explode because they are projected by electromagnets...

Tom: So how did it destroy the entire mech if the ammunition Wasen't explosive?

Tim:...

Tom: Well, that's Tom at the Yori Mech works... Next up, Is your neighbor secretely working for Lyran, find out next...
