On a more restrained scale, The Gunslinger may specialize in squeezing more dakka out of seemingly ordinary firearms with Guns Akimbo, which can also be downright terrifying. If you're strong enough, you always have an option of taking a heavier weapon off its mount. Gatling Good is a common way of achieving more dakka, and you can expect to see gratuitous camera shots devoted to torrents of spent shell casings produced by the volume of fire. And sometimes, the guns in question are really, really big. Aim is also a factor: large volumes of fire accomplish surprisingly little in the case of A-Team Firing or if the shooters are graduates of the Imperial Stormtrooper Marksmanship Academy. Occasionally, the only point of a seemingly overwhelming and gratuitous show of force is to hammer home the point that the Monster of the Week simply cannot be defeated through ordinary means.


After all, There Is No Kill Like Overkill. More dakka can even work against targets where conventional attacks are normally ineffective - even if each shot only does Scratch Damage, it will succumb to a Death of a Thousand Cuts eventually. Modern automatic weapons can achieve the rates of fire required for more dakka all by themselves, but using a whole bunch of slower-firing guns works too. While Improbable Aiming Skills are all very well and good, sometimes you just need to throw a wall of bullets at the target - perhaps your foe can Dodge the Bullet, or you're up against a whole army of Mooks at once. More Dakka is the art of solving problems by unloading as many rounds of ammunition at them as possible.
