"Creative Bastards, aren't they? Looks like they're using old Lancers!"
Baird on first seeing a Turret in action.

The "Multi-Turrets" were multi-weapon, multi-purpose stationary turrets created by the Savage Locust as a replacement for the Troika, and can have various weapons mounted on them, such as Mk 1 Lancer Assault Rifles, Mk 2 Lancer Assault Rifles, Gnasher Shotguns and Boomshot Grenade Launchers.

The Multi-Turret.

History

What the Savage Locust lack in technology, they more than make up for in ingenuity, and with no Troika Turrets to be found they created improvised gun racks to mount and fire multiple weapons simultaneously. They can swap in whatever weapons they can salvage whether that's Pendulum Wars era Lancers, Gnasher shotguns or the grenade launching Boomshot.

The Lancer and Boomshot variants were also mounted to the decks of Gas Barges as defensive and offensive weapons. They are often manned by Grenadiers or Queen's Guards .[1]

The Retro version of the Multi-Turret is available to buy in Horde 2.0 in Gears of War 3 for 1,500 dollars. Turrets are used for decimating small groups of enemy troops, especially against Wretches . They are also useful when a Brumak comes into the fray, where you can use the Multi-Turret to destroy the Brumak's wrist-mounted chain guns. The Retro Lancer Multi-Turret upgrade is the initial man-able turret, which costs $1500 to build and requires a Level 4 Barrier. It holds 600 rounds of ammunition.
