Yeah, I think it should be able to rotate but very slowly, and a hefty price tag for the firepower.
To answer your question on the other topic eva, I used a dark-colored Grand Cannon for the mini-cannon and a 2x resized one for the Black Cannon. I'm still not sure if they should be buildable at all, or just campaign-only.
Another problem we need to figure out is how to get a 4-directional laser weapon, or if to implement it at all, since it would be unfair to make a weapon that can shoot to the other side of a large map...
Awesome stuff on AWnet!
