Gun Emplacement

Gun emplacements are a type of robot encountered in Appalachia in 2102-2103.

Characteristics
A fixed, automated defensive emplacement mounting a 50 caliber cannon in a cast turret on a concrete foundation. The emplacements were a popular choice for providing military-grade defense at strategic locations across Appalachia, such as the Wade Airport, Poseidon Energy Plant WV-06, or the converted munitions factory. The emplacement can easily fire on targets in the air, such as scorchbeasts; however, the gun cannot depress low enough to target smaller attackers, such as mongrels or mole rats, which can close in and attack them point blank with impunity. Damaged emplacements can be repaired and will defend the area from hostile creatures.
