{{weaponitem|name=Rotary Blaster Cannon|id=Rotary|group=Heavy Weapon|book=Galaxy at War|page=39|cost=5,500|size=Large|weight=16kg|availability=Military|damage=3d10|stun=—|type=Energy|modes=Autofire|text=A rotary blaster cannon is a heavy weapon that fires a massive spray of blaster bolts at a target. Coming to prominence at the dawn of the Clone Wars, Merr-Sonn’s Z-6 rotary blaster cannon is similar to a heavy repeating blaster in many ways. It is carried by a single heavy-weapons specialist, but unlike most heavy repeating blasters, the Z-6 rotary blaster cannon does not require a tripod. The weapon is popular among the clone troops of the Galactic Republic because it can be fired from the hip, allowing the wielder to cover a greater fire arc with a single burst. However, the weapon is inaccurate when the wielder does not take time to brace it.{{newline}}If you brace a rotary blaster cannon before firing it, you can choose to target a 2×4 square area (instead of the normal 2×2 square area) with your autofire attack. However, if you do not brace the rotary blaster cannon, you take a −5 penalty to your attack roll in addition to the normal penalties associated with firing a weapon in autofire mode.{{newline}}The rotary blaster cannon requires a power pack to operate. After 20 shots, the power pack must be replaced. This weapon can also be attached to a [[power generator]] for longer use.{{newline}}See also: [[Repeating Blaster Weapons]].}}
