The Sabre Gun Platform is a mobile heavy weapons platform that makes use of the same stabiliser leg mount as the Tarantula Sentry Gun, with the main difference between the two being that the Sabre is manned by a small team of soldiers, as opposed to the Tarantula which is automated using a Machine Spirit (Artificial Intelligence)-controlled logic engine. The Sabre features built-in auto-stabilisers to reduce recoil and improve accuracy of its mounted weapons. The platform's weapon mount can rotate a full 360 degrees and can also be aimed up and down, which allows the platform's crew to engage both low-flying enemy aircraft and enemy ground forces. The platform's light structural weight can be easily assembled on the field by the weapon's team and then can be broken down fully for transport

  • The Sabre Gun Platform is a mobile heavy weapons platform that makes use of the same stabiliser leg mount as the Tarantula Sentry Gun, with the main difference between the two being that the Sabre is manned by a small team of soldiers, as opposed to the Tarantula which is automated using a Machine Spirit (Artificial Intelligence)-controlled logic engine. The Sabre features built-in auto-stabilisers to reduce recoil and improve accuracy of its mounted weapons. The platform's weapon mount can rotate a full 360 degrees and can also be aimed up and down, which allows the platform's crew to engage both low-flying enemy aircraft and enemy ground forces. The platform's light structural weight can be easily assembled on the field by the weapon's team and then can be broken down fully for transport to a new location, although this process cannot be done when under enemy fire. Due to their inability to keep up with advancing or retreating forces, Sabre teams are expected to hold their ground regardless of any level of opposition. They will often form the last line of defence during a failing campaign and the majority of Guardsmen rightly consider that assignment to a Sabre battery can be a death warrant.
