| − | The 40mm Auto Cannon is recommended for use on groups of aggressive swarmer vehicles. As new UFO appear they should be phased out and replaced with alternatives such as the [[Rendor Plasma Gun (Apocalypse) | Render Plasma Gun]] or better. The weaker but much more cost effective [[Bolter 4000 Laser Gun (Apocalypse) | Bolter 4000 Laser Gun]] is also a popular replacement.
