I own an AC-8 Autocannon for home defense, since that’s what the SEAF intended.
Four automatons break into my Super Home. “Sweet Liberty!” As I grab my helmet and my near-empty Autocannon.
Blast a 20mm hole in the first clanker, he’s scrap on the spot.
Draw my Senator on the second bot, miss him entirely because it was damaged on the Creek and it nails the neighbor’s son.
I have to resort to the HMG mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with HE ammunition.
“DEMOCRACY NEVER DIES!”, the emplacement shreds two clankers in the burst.
Pick up a shield pack, arm orbital laser stratagem, and charge the last terrified bot. He gets melted in the blast, pooling liquid metal on the floor while reinforcements arrive since the 5 million kelvin beam is impossible to salvage anything from.
Ah, just as Super Earth intended.
