Another handy vehicle design to fill out the city garrison
forces of the FRR. Its slow for its size but the speed is
irrevalent for its role inside confined cities. Armor is
fairly decent and it mounts a surprising large gun backed
by a sprinkling of machineguns.The lack of solid anti-BA weapons
will rattle some but combined arm tactics should cover it
quite well.

Still too lazy to come out a good fluff to
explain its role though but that will change soon.

WAY too slow for a wheeled vehicle.Armour is fair weapon throw weight is kinda low.Mediocre at best.

Actually it's not all that expensive. And I agree with Motown, it's way to slow for a wheel vehicle.

One hit to the side and the dice aren't your friends and pop there goes a chunk of movement...Speed is the main thing for vehicles.

And noting that this and your hover tank share similar weapons means you have no ammo issues.

Well it hard to mount an A/C-10 on something that is just 35 tons with some decent armor coating and expect it to move at speed.

As i mentioned earlier, im thinking of writing a fluff soon, which will greatly explain the vehicle's purpose.
