I was kind of suprised one of these didn't exist as a canon upgrade. Going from an AC carrier to a UAC carrier would be quite simple.
To manage this one, I upgraded to FF armor and back to a SFE like the normal PPC carrier. That gave me enough tonnage to install 3 UACs with 5 tons ammo, plus a deadly anti-infantry array consisting of flamers, SPLs, and MGs.

I will refer you to every argument you made about/against the Dargon HAAAV.

Low ammo? Nope
Low armor? A tad.
Stupidly expensive and unnecessary XL engine? Not at all.

BTW donkey, if you are reading this, a Fuel Cell Engine does NOT count as an ICE engine in terms of weight.

Where is the piss poor set of stats does this even say it has a fuel cell?

Your post of the HAAAV reminded me of donkey's post that referred to the fuel cell being the same weight and such as the ICE engine, but I didn't want to bump that thread again.

use the burke tank or something else. UAC carrier is ok. Schreck is a ppc carrier. You renamed the demolisher tank to avoid issues. Why this one?

Haven't seen that one yet. Guessing it's a newer book. This is really making me think the game is going the same way as a lot of other ones.

The AC carrier was a PPC carrier cannibalized of its engine and PPC for mechs.

I can see that as a custom job. They made a whole line like that?
Damn designers just love the crappy ac's.
