| Whar arc of fire do you claim to have on your venoms two cannons and on the front lance of a Raider/Ravager?
Hull mounted is 45 degrees and pivot/turret is 360. | |

| hull mount is indeed 45 degrees but in most cases it is what the weapon would actually move... so the front mount on the raider/ravager would be maybe 120 degrees... though 90 seems more likely... | |

| I claim around 90° for both. Since this seems to be the amount it can actually move. | |

| Front lance has 90°, but side lances on ravager are 180°, just as every other side-sponson mouten weapon in this game. | |

| I actually dont think there is any side sponson ar all that has 180° and the Ravager definitely has more.
And there doesn't seem to be any consensus on the front weapon either. | |

| I use 90° for the front mount on the Raider/Ravager, and intend to do the same for the Venom now that I have some of the new models. I think this makes the most sense and is quite reasonable. I don't know why anyone would argue against it.
I have always assumed 180° for the Ravager's side mounted weapons. That's what they are designed for isn't it, and I think I remember there is a pic in the rule book somewhere showing 180° arcs. Or maybe it was the printed instructions for the model itself, or the ones online?
I always focus all three Ravvie wep's at targets directly in front without a problem and two in each of the front quarters, but I have to admit that I have never actually aimed one (or both) directly behind yet.

| Rule book shows 180 for Predators' sponsons, so the same is definitely true for Ravagers.

| I also use 180 for Ravager side weapons, and 90 for the front mounted one.
On Venoms, 90 for the top one but i'm not sure about the underslung weapon, i've been using 90 also but it looks like it'd do 360? (Can't remember if it obstructed or not) | |

| I would use 180 on venoms....just like .50 mounted on a truck. | |
