Combat

Basic Attack

Fires a fast moving bullet that has a range of 8 squares, interrupts enemies, and has a chance to cause stun. In addition, this gun has the ability to reliably knock down Gremlin Menders and smaller Wolvers (non-alpha versions) found within tiers 1 & 2.The recoil from the gun will push back the user 1/3 of a square and the user may fire up to 2 shots before reloading.

Note: Having recoil means that the user will be momentarily unable to move when attacking.

Charge Attack

Fires a larger and somewhat slower (medium speed) bullet that can travel up to 10 squares, and can pierce through enemies until it reaches the end of it's range or reaches a solid, unpassable object (may pierce through vendors). The bullet has an 1 square radius area of effect so it might be a bit tricky to fire in between 2 stationary blocks.

Damage

The following damage values represent the weapon at its completed level, without any UV or bonus from other equipment, and are listed as a range found from the first to last floor of each stratum.

Notes

Like Callahan and Iron Slug, Mega Magnus and Magnus references Dirty Harry. In that film, Clint Eastwood's character famously describes his gun, "...being this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off...."
