This is a simple, ammo independent wheeled tank. It has modest speeds, weapons, and excellent armor. It uses some of the highest tech equipment even the most powerful periphery nation would have trouble getting.

is this ice powered or fusion?
Where is the extra heat sinks?
This is why the program you are using has issues. The later information like no amps would suggest fusion.

Without the arguement of getting the stuff for the periphery, the tank does have some potential.
The fact is uses an energy weapons where most use a ballistic weapon is nice.

I was wondering the same thing, were is that info and your BV is to low given that you have an armored chassis. You spent 18 tons of the 65 for heat sinks, that is 8 tons that could have gone in to other things.

When the type is not mentioned it is assumed by default the engine is a SFE

Only 8 tons were spent on the heat sinks, the rest are free.

By you yes, not by others.

Most vehicles are ICE so everyone else assumes a vehicle is ICE unless you state otherwise.

Most mechs are standard Fusion so most people will assumes a mech has a standard fusion engine unless you state otherwise
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.

its just nice to see the little things, like transmissions (for fusion) and control components. Otherwise a quick glance makes you wonder if those things were figured into the unit.

I agree with donkey on the engine situation. If in a tank, I would assume ice unless stated otherwise. Looking thru the stats to see something that simple puts you on edge to wondering if the unit is properly done.

If the program doesn't put in that info, could you add a note to it.

Nothing there suggest a SFE at all. And given that you don't even list the heat sinks yeah big issue with the program you are using.

Not really seeing a Periphery power paying the that much for this kind of tank, it's more something the WoB or AAFS would be using.

I agree for the most part. My own world builds large numbers of smaller fusion power plants but that took decades and having access to New Avalon Institute of Science and a copy of the Helm Memory Core.

honestly, would see this on a smaller tank.

also guessing the innersphere has a version of the targetting computer. With everything else, I would assume it is larger and heavier then the clan version.
