The Inferno Cannon is a siege weapon wielded by [[Mechanoid#Centipede|Centipedes]]. Doesn't drop on death, making it Mechanoid-only. It fires a projectile that sets anything within a 2.4-tile radius on fire. While its shots are not fatal, the primary threat is that it starts fires that can consume large areas and cause extensive damage if left uncontrolled. Characters caught by its fire will run out of their cover in an attempt to put out themselves, making them vulnerable as sitting ducks. Burns do not cause bleeding but extensive pain, which leads to [[Health#Shock|shock]] and incapacitation, or sometimes  an uncommon [[Health#Scarring|scar badly]]. Downed colonists are also liable to death by fire unless rescued or put out.

Description

The Inferno Cannon is a siege weapon wielded by Centipedes. Doesn't drop on death, making it Mechanoid-only. It fires a projectile that sets anything within a 2.4-tile radius on fire. While its shots are not fatal, the primary threat is that it starts fires that can consume large areas and cause extensive damage if left uncontrolled. Characters caught by its fire will run out of their cover in an attempt to put out themselves, making them vulnerable as sitting ducks. Burns do not cause bleeding but extensive pain, which leads to shock and incapacitation, or sometimes an uncommon scar badly. Downed colonists are also liable to death by fire unless rescued or put out.
