The Balero Cannon (バレロ・キャノン Barero Kya'non) is a weapon featured in Razing Storm's Story Mode.
Overview[]
A Balero Cannon was found by S.C.A.R. operative Delta 1 at the entrance to a construction site. The operative may have procured this weapon to good use against the enemies they're fighting, especially dealing with the H.A.C.S. powered exoskeleton. The operative may have found other Balero Cannons laying around the area and used them for additional ammo. In Almada Penitentiary, it is used to move containers and destroy the weakened walls to create a path to the chief's office and to later create an escape path from areas filled with poison gas. It is also the weapon used to immobilise Paulo Guerra's robot when fired at its weakpoint.
Gameplay[]
Reload animation
The Balero Cannon is an unorthodox weapon that does not fire traditional bullets as ammunition. Instead, it fires a single sphere that deals a large amount of damage to enemies. Unique to every other weapon throughout the Time Crisis series as a whole, it has three stages of charge when the fire button is held down, having a higher charge will result in very high damage compared to a lower charge.
This weapon does not appear in Lixeira/Stage 3.
