Ol'val Rearmed: Tall Tales from the Turrets

"Some say, the refurbished Com turret Besh is haunted by the ghost of Corporal Jenkyns, who died tragically, choking on a galactic gobbler leg."
"I heard the Mass Driver cannon is low-key used to dump all our waste into a black hole."
"Did you know there's a hidden stash of Corellian Whisky within the power matrix of one of the anti-air guns? If you're only brave enough to find it..."

Come up with the most implausible and outlandish tall tale about our new base defences! Some are new, some are old, some are positively ancient and only recently refurbished back to working condition. What skeletons lurk in their proverbial closets? What tales do the residents of Ol'val whisper about these stoic defenders of their homes? The most entertaining entries reign victorious!

Our new Turrets:
DF.12 Com Turret
Bp.5 Anti-Air Turret
MSt-50 Mass Driver Cannon

"You know that 'new' com turret we got in last weekend? It smells wayyy too much like fried womp rat, I think one of the new gunners has been using it to cook brunch."

"I heard that some private climbed into the mass driver not too long ago, said he could fly across the port with it. The new crew says every time they test fire it smells like someone fried a Rodian."

"Did you know the placement of the anti-air turrets supposedly line up to make a treasure map? Somebody found a credit chit in one of them, it's got to be real."
