==Overview:==
The Hepatica was designed to provide decisive anti-air firepower.
==Capabilities:==
The Hepatica can cruise six meters per second, flank nine meters per second, and achieve a top speed of twelve meters per second. Though kind of slow, the speed does enable the tank to quickly go hull down which reduces its profile and an enemy fighter's ability to hit it.
The tank's weapons are six Splashin' Bashin' Clan LB-5X autocannons. The autocannons have a long range which enables the Hepatica to effectively hit targets at high altitudes. The damage inflicted by the autocannons is and half times that of the Partisan's and the damage can cause a fighter to fly out of control. To enable the Hepatica to be more effective in hitting fly targets, a Bane for Airplane Anti-Aircraft Targeting System and a C3 system also installed. Ten rounds are available for each autocannon.
The armor on the tank is Defendo Armor's Heavy Ferro-Fibrous Armor. The massive amount of armor provides a great deal of protection against strafing striking, and bombing attacks and it is much more than what the Partisan Heavy Tank has. CASE is installed to protect the tank and its crew should its ammo and/or engine explode. The tank also has front and rear trailer hitches so it can pull other vehicles if necessary.
==Battle History:==
The Hepatica was first deployed against the Clans. The flak from the Hepaticas shot down several OmniFighters doing strafing runs. The Clan OmniFighters tried desperately return fire but were unsuccessful due to how the Hepaticas had already gone hull down in craters.

Hull down is a Tactical Operations tactic that enables conventional vehicles to use terrain not marked on the map as cover. As fighters approach they're LOS to tanks is hindered due to that terrain cover.

No he just wants to amend them..
Not to mention the fact that tanks haven't had side sponson mounted guns since World War 1 for a reason..
