This is a basic single-barrel chain-loaded rifle, powered by a simple, self-winding flywheel.
The chaingun is a mid-tier heavy weapon that is notable for its high magazine capacity and the large number of projectiles it fires in a single shot. Because of this characteristic, the chaingun can take down multiple targets in a single turn, and it can compete with or outperform other top-tier ranged weapons when fighting swarms of enemies or targets that do not have very high armor (AV). When fighting enemies with very high AV, a different heavy weapon or a rifle with higher penetration may be preferred.
One of the most significant challenges of using a chaingun for an extended period of time will be keeping it supplied with enough 
lead slugs, because it is quite ammo-hungry. Dedicated chaingunners may want to buy all the lead slugs they can find from merchants, and also consider learning how to craft additional slugs with the relevant Tinker I schematic.
