A minigun is a six-barreled rotary gun with a disintegrating belt, powered by a battery and with the capacity to fire 100 rounds of 7.62 NATO in a second. Intended to be mounted on larger vehicles, man-portable variants such as the XM214 Microgun chambered in 5.56 were developed, but never saw production due to their smaller caliber being less reliable at range for aircraft gunners. A minigun has a capacity of 4,500 rounds, but due to its very fast rate of fire every "shot" represents 100 bullets.

Renaissance version is based on Electric Gatling 1893 - 10-barreled, Water-Cooled Gun with an Electric motor inside its bronze housing. Though, in alternate history, it could also use steam engine. It fires 50 shots per second (2 times slower than modern variant). That version has short burst (2) (each shot represents 25 bullets), reload (67 shots) - otherwise stats are the same.
