====== Heavy Shotgun ====== //A Heavy Shotgun is an oversized, two-handed firearm built to accelerate massive solid slugs at short range, favouring overwhelming impact over ease of handling. Its reinforced frame, thick barrel assembly, and increased mass allow it to deliver extreme stopping power in confined environments, where a single discharge can halt an advance outright. The added weight stabilises the weapon on overwatch, but demands strength and commitment to keep it raised and ready. Carried by those who expect resistance rather than chance, the Heavy Shotgun pushes the platform toward its upper limits, trading mobility for dominance.//\\ ---- //It goes boom.\\ Pulled the trigger, dude stopped moving.\\ Heavy, loud, exactly what I wanted. 5/5.
