Description
A twin barrel mortar launcher that can rotate all the way around and it can do it fast. Sure, these shells don't hit as hard as the GSO ones, or go quite as far, but they are much better at hitting their mark from a speeding buggy! While scaling the rocky shores of the Shetland Isles, an intrepid explorer by the name of Legionite once used one to scare off a flock of overly eager puffins.


The Venture Roundabout Mortar is a grade 2 weapon block manufactured by Venture. Like all Venture blocks, it can be crafted with a Venture Fabricator.

It has 1 attachment point(s) and takes up 1 cell(s).

Usage[]

As a frontline weapon it is outclassed by GSO 3-Pound Cannon, however mortar's main advantage is their homing projectiles, that can hit faster techs more reliably, and steep firing trajectory, that allows to place them where other cannons would have no reliable firing line.

Roundabout Mortar also take less space than Venture Avalanche Launcher that has the same role (and better DPS).
