GalacTech's H-14 Medium Repeating Blaster is designed to fill the role
of both light and heavy repeating blasters, being light enough to be
carried and fired by a single man, but producing heavy firepower and
suitable for mounting on a tripod with a generator.  The necessary
generator is built into the tripod and only a single gunner is needed
when firing, and it is also designed to work off vehicle power as
well.   The tripod also features a seat for the gunner, ensuring the
gunner is in the same position relative to the weapon every time.  A
popular selling point is it can be used as a vehicle weapon, then
dismounted and carried into battle if the vehicle needs to be left
behind.  Unfortunately as a personal weapon it is exceptionally heavy,
requiring a very strong soldier to bear it, and even then tiring the
bearer far faster than a light repeating blaster, as well as chewing
power packs twice as fast.  As a mounted weapon it lacks the range and
punch of a heavy repeating blaster.

Already having a large supply of both light and heavy repeating
blasters the Empire and most planetary forces did not adopt the H-14,
however, the Rebel Alliance likes the weapon as a large number of
wookiee's and other strong beings fill the rebel ranks, able to wield
it, and appreciating its portable firepower against AT-ST's and other
light Imperial armor.
