Pristine 40 mm Autocannon Best Use, Timing, And Extraction Value

Pristine 40 mm Autocannon earns the mount slot when the Trampler is already built to feed 40 mm shells and hold a usable firing lane, but does not need the armored version's extra protection to make that plan work. That makes it the sharper choice for safer angles and cleaner engagements where the gun can fire without being the main thing soaking return fire. If the route is messy, repair-heavy, or likely to leave the gun exposed, the unarmored body loses ground quickly.

Where To Find Or Use Pristine 40 mm Autocannon In SAND Raiders of Sophie
