A pair of sprinkler valved cannon with pneumatic actuators to reload the chambers and eject the cartridges, very ingenious - see the website here: http://www.dead-by-dawn.org/tech.htm

DBD has had that out for a while now.I've never personally played against them but I hear the cannon on that tank is downright punishing against the other tankers.I'd love to get my chance someday to make short work of them with my LAW launcher :D

damage probably isn't very impressive considering it's used for paintball, I bet it's regulated to pretty low pressure.

^ In a test fire video they made, they reg it down to 95PSI at 45yards and 100psi at 100yards. The nerf's made it to the cloth that was hanging from tree's 100y away pretty quick.

Just some circuits that have everything work off a timer I'm guessing.
