====Game Description====

"The Akan 30 is a powerful cannon designed by the Rasiermesser Corporation. This weapon requires Akan 30 cannon shells."

====Gameplay Notes====
This is perhaps the first available weapon that remains viable through the entire pre-Heretic game.  Ammo will be in short supply early on, but unlimited ammo can be farmed from Ranx Gunships later on.  To remain viable this weapon requires hexagine boosters so if you intend to keep it all game plan ahead.
