Subject: I wonder why there wasn't a Scorpian with a Guass Cannon?

Since the UNSC put a Guass turret on a Warthog, why didn't they create a turret with Guass cannon installed in it with the same caliber (90mm) or slightly smaller one (75mm ish but could do equal or more damage)?

Gauss cannons fire non-explosive rounds. It is a kinetic weapon. With a conventional weapon on the Scorpion, it can fire explosive ordinance.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

It would have been nice to see some of the Halo Wars vehicles pop up in the Reach Campaign.

Forgot about that, but still the Cobra was a tank destroyer and not a tank itself.

Because they have dedicated anti-vehicle weapons/vehicles, and the Scorpion is anti-infantry. Something its output is tuned towards.
