Available only to the Clone Commander class of the Republic, or the Rail ARC Troopers of Kamino, the Chaingun is a large shoulder-worn weapon, which is particularly effective, and indeed intended for attacking infantry, especially droids.

Whilst the weapon takes a moment to charge, and is almost certain to overheat after prolonged firing, the Chaingun gives its user superiority on the battlefield. The amount of time taken for the weapon to charge and re-charge, however, makes it difficult for the Clone Commander to risk prolonged engagement with the enemy. The sheer firepower of the weapon seemed to compensate for this in most instances; few enemies can withstand the volley of blaster bolts which is produced, even hero units. Furthermore, a Clone commander could always switch for another weapon, or head for cover while his Chaingun is cooling down. This however, is inconvenient in certain environments, as cover is not always abundant. Also, while the Blaster Pistol carried by Clone Commanders can be used against single opponents, it cannot be used to combat several enemies unless the player has obtained the Precision Pistol, which provides said player with a potentially lethal combination of weaponry.

Trivia

The ingame Chaingun is a underhand modification of the Z-6 Rotary Blaster cannon used by ARC troopers and Heavy Troopers.
The Z-6 is used by any unit in Star Wars: Battlefront Renegade Squadron and Star Wars: Battlefront Elite Squadron by the customisable infantry.
