As it appears in the BBB, the Panther Cannon is weightless (like all weapons), and has no particular penalties for size. So essentially, anyone with the Heavy Weapons skill can fire one, especially since the recoil, according to the rules, is negligible. In older editions the Panther was mainly used by Trolls, because nobody else was strong enough. Now, you could have an anemic dwarf lighting people up with this thing, unless there's a rule that I'm missing. Was this ever addressed officially?
