Usage & Description

Notes

• If the 12 Pounder spawns with the accessory RL_Accessory_BodyMod_1_Mag, which usually increases magazine size in rocket launchers, the clip size will be reduced from 2 to 1.
• The version of this weapon with a single round magazine is incompatible with Gaige's Smaller, Lighter, Faster skill.

Trivia

• The red text is a Latin phrase with no proper literal translation. The most common translations are "not unequal to many," "above all," or "greater than all." This motto was commonly used by Louis XIV of France and was often cast onto cannon barrels.
• The term "12-Pounder" is a common term for a cannon that fires 12-pound projectiles.
