That weapon mix looks like something I'd do.

Not sure if that was a compliment... :/

one minor problem. Unless they changed it, I believe hovertanks are limited to 50 tons.

I believe that's in the optional rules, just like 200-ton 'Mechs and tanks.

only know some of the clan and preclan rules. Don't know if they expanded then yet.
I am wondering about the rrrs, frls initials.
I wonder if they are front left side and such. If so, does that mean the fire in both the front and left side?
It might be the format, since the armor say front right and such. Unless this tanks uses the hex shape for to hit locations.

Another question is: does a gauss rifle need a power amp with an ice engine?
There is no information in the stats about control, turret and such.

engine weight for hovers still 20% of vehicles for support units?
Looks like 14 tons, when the last I knew of, should be 20 tons.

I'm surprised that he did not mount the improved Heavy Gauss Rifle.

I wonder what PoD would have to say about Retry and ATN's stuff they post if he was still around.
Why argue if the glass is half full or half empty, when you know someone is going to knock it over and spill it anyways.

But I got a promotion.

Yay for promotions!!!

I have not read the newer rules. This is why I asked if they changed the hover limit from 50 tons.
Since you have not answered that, I can not tell if this is a real attempt or a joke.
From your last statement, I would believe it was a joke.

First thought was this was an atn tank. Had to double check.
You did get a couple of people with this one. 2 names that seem to know most of the rules didn't catch it.
good job

What they did was give up support vehicles rules, these are not true combat vehicles and endup being a hybrid of the two when you mix weapons and such on there.

They have NOT combined the two rules into one single vehicle rule set as of yet.

I guess you will need the disclaimer now retry.
I said I would believe it was a joke.
Retry says "You believe correctly."

Now with that being said, This tank was meant to be a comic relief, not a real submission.

Said thing is, if some people are correct about support vehicles, then this may not have been as aparant as it could be.
