HEAVY WEAPON PORT (Cyberware) (PL 7) This sizeable attachment allows the recipient to mount a two-handed ranged weapon over his shoulder and control it via his HUD link. The weapon slides down across his back when not in use. Benefit: The recipient can attach a specially modified ranged weapon of up to one size category larger than himself to a port on his back. As a free action, he can move the weapon into firing position on his shoulder. The weapon is used as if held in extra arms, requiring a standard action. If fired as part of a full action, it is considered an off-hand attack. If the recipient is making an at-tack with each of his other hands, each of his natural hands takes an additional –2 penalty on attack rolls and the mounted weapon takes a total –8 penalty. If the recipient has a tailgunner (Cyberware), it may be assigned to control the heavy weapon port, taking attacks as it normally would. The heavy weapon mount can only be installed on a cyborg with either a fortified skeleton or an exoskeleton, and requires a HUD link and NIJack system to use. Modifying a weapon for use in the heavy weapon port adds +2 to its base purchase DC. Removing or attaching a weapon is a standard action that provokes an attack of opportunity. Type: External. Location: One torso. Hardness/Hit Points: 10/15. Base Purchase DC: 25 (not including weapon). Restriction: Mil. (+3).
