What Your Favorite Droid?

Doh, you got me with R2-D2.

IG-88 then. There's something really unnerving about him.

both R2 and HK are at my top.

Don't worry about it, we've all done it.

I wasn't aware they had shotguns in the SW universe.

I play Battlefront II very often, I've never run into a shotgun.

Most engineer classes carry shotguns.

You mean the blast cannon that could be considered a shotgun equivalent? Because shotguns shoot "shot", a specific type of bullet, whereas blast cannons shoot lasers. I can see how it might be confusing, however, as even the game will occasionally call it a shotgun, so it might be two different people were working on the game at the same time and you can tell who wrote which sections by that.

Oh, come on, we've been over this already. No one trusts Wookieepedia.

I know the smilies are small right now so I'll clarify that that's a winking face, meaning I don't mean to come across badly there. But, seriously, someone needs to fix Wookieepedia.

"Shotguns come in a wide variety of forms, from very small up to massive punt guns, and in nearly every type of firearm operating mechanism. The common characteristics that make a shotgun unique center around the requirements of firing shot. These features are the features typical of a shotgun shell, namely a relatively short, wide cartridge, with straight walls, and operating at a relatively low pressure.

Ammunition for shotguns is referred to in the USA as shotgun shells, shotshells, or just shells (when it is not likely to be confused with artillery shells). The term cartridges is standard usage in the United Kingdom.

The shot is usually fired from a smoothbore barrel; another configuration is the rifled slug barrel, which fires more accurate solitary projectiles (though some slugs can also be fired from smoothbore weapons)."

From Wikipedia. You'd think people would pay more attention before they wrote these things, a little research goes a long way.

Like what kind of projectile weapons? I seem to remember something called a slug thrower? Am I thinking of something else entirely or is that something real?

Yep virps
