MGT Only: In MgT2e+, can you put 3 items on the turret for the Scout/Courier?

[Spinward Scout]

I seem to remember there was a restriction on a Scout/Courier that only 2 items can be put on the turret because of the computer or some such.

Is that still a rule in the current version of Traveller?

I'd like to put a Pulse Laser, and Missile Launcher, and a Sandcaster on the Scout/Courier.

But will that work with the computer it comes with?

Currently, differently priced turrets have one to four turret weapon system slots.

Default for the Scout/Courier is a double turret.

If you want to increase the number of weapon slots, you'll have to replace it.

So, you could replace the stock double turret with one having double that capacity.

Great. Now I'm hungry.

of course, now in 2026 with gigabit speeds being the norm in most places with enough people, I think the Winston will have to carry more than 4GB

(and I found out that years ago they standardized megabyte and gigabyte for drives and things to be actually 1 million, 1 billion, and not a power of 2. so a KB is now 1000 bytes, not 1024. explains why drives have less storage than I think they should! back in my day [mumbles the old man] a megabyte was a megabyte!)

It might not be the fastest, nowadays, even with terabyte flash drives.

However, it might be the securest.

Depends upon intervening persons skill in shotgun.

Yeah, you could put a Quad Turret on it.
