Very Vanilla Turrets

A selection of vanilla-style turrets that attempt to keep in line with style, purpose, and power curve of the vanilla turrets.

Most of the turrets act as straightforward upgrades from the vanilla turrets providing more killing power, more efficiently than the basic turrets without changing their essential purpose. The rest re-purpose some existing weapon mechanics for specialised effects.

All turrets are scattered through the research tree in a sensible manner.
