Uneversity of texas paper on recoil in rail guns

turns out the recoil happens in the power supply, as the recoil is mostly magnetic aswell.
so you face a danger of burnout mostly.

Make it a late game tech. Texan railguns

Can't be too "late game" since the U.S. Navy has already completed a working prototype - It will be tested at sea in 2016. : P

Eh Guys.. in Space there is no gravitiy.. so if we accelerate the projektil trought some sort of magnets and it never even touches the barrel, - no Recoil

If that were true, rockets wouldn't work in space either. The presence of gravity is not relevant.

Momentum has to be conserved, if you shoot a thing off, regardless of what it is, it's going to impart some acceleration to you too.
