Nice idea, but it needs some ammunition.

I put 12 of this with their tractors (lightly armored 10 ton trucks) behind some hills and began blasting away indirectly as soon as my opponents got in range. I was able to empty 6 of them before they got toasted!

Personal note: use VTOL to look on the other side of the hills often
Note to the crew: bring some thunder ammo with you to make crossing the hill more fun for the enemy.

Maybe you´ll laugh but i used two light helicopters as spotters!
The hills were behind the front so i lost most field launchers to a light mech and two small hovers that managed to flank out my main force!

Maybe that you would like my Batwing (Kuritan Eggs) helos (looks like MD 500) for this role. They are cute.
5t VTOL with I.C.E. engine 15/23 speed, 1.5t of standard armor (8 front/5 sides/3 rear/3 rotor) and 1t of space (Usually an MG mounted to the side, but infantry, TAG or C3 are also easy to install). Poor man's Sprint Scout Helicopter. Would you run it through HMVee?

Sure! But i had to put 1 point of armor from the rotor to the rear because rotors can have only 2 points max.

You do not have an email address. I was going to ask you to send me the Heavy Metal Pro file of this. I like it.
AWAD- Popcorn units, do lots of damage but blow up nicely so no salvage is left

Last time i was showing my e-mail address on a (RPG-related) forum i got immense amounts of spam so i got very cautious about it!
What do you think about it? Any problems with that here?
As you have an address here i can mail the HMPro/Vee files to you. Only the LRM or some of the others too? (see AC/5 field gun topic)

Not having your email address in your profile is fine. Would not be surprised if this site gets mined once in awhile for email addresses. Whatever makes you comfortable.
Please send me any Vee files you have. I think the selection of vehicles blows. Also think in all the books it says vehicle forces are 3x to 5x more than Mechs. I will send you some of my better and more useful designs.
On a side note, ready for the World Cup?
AWAD- USA! USA! USA!

I´m not sure if "Klinsi" gets his men in line early enough! Don´t think we get very high!
My "secret" favorite: Ecuador!
PS: All that World Cup hype especially in all kinds of advertisements here in Germany gets on my wick!!
