Oct 27, 2008 15:33:18 So Utilizing Nix4's Mil Con rules I have begun stating a vehicle for PL8 for my campaign... without further adue I present my vehicle! Also give me an idea as to how to create proper tables for my posts

Mk III M1A4 Abrams (PL8)

The Mk III M1A4 Abrams, larger than its former predecessors, sacrifices part of its internal cargo capacity formerly used for the older bulkier twin turbine engines by incorporating the newer sleeker Turbine XI (2000) engine and Micro-fusion reactor from Paladin Arms. With the incorporation of the lighter and more efficient engines and fusion reactor the Mk III is able to carry ten to twelve support infantry into combat via a rear mounted hatchway at the rear situated between the twin Hydrogen Turbine XI Engines and Micro Fusion Reactor/Generator. The Mk III is equipped standard with Paladins latest 140mm main Autocannon, one support Trinity 4cm Linear Rail Cannon, two 12.7mm machine gun mounts, a 40mm Auto Grenade Launcher mount, and a 120mm Auto-Mortar pintle turret mound.

Oct 29, 2008 18:22:28 Well 40views O replies so far... so I guess that my tank is not too powerful/over-armored/etcetera... I could post my Mk IV version when I finish?

I still would like to know how to post the little drop open tab windows that I see on other posts? Any help is appreciated!

Nov 07, 2008 20:31:44 In my Defense... it is a WIP and direct me to some stated weapons like those you listed and I will use them... Also, this vehicle is primarily manufactured in my campaign setting as a continental/planetary defense unit that the PC's will face... the government of a rogue planet mainly bought/took a bunch of older hulks that they purchased and retrofitted them when the United Stellar Alliance upgraded their mechanized units!

Nov 11, 2008 15:20:19 Update: I have started modding the vehicle above into an Late PL5/early PL6 as suggested by Backstabbist dono named Mk II M1A3 Abrams while also modding the stated vehicle into a PL8 vehicle equipped with his suggested weaponry... I am keeping the the Grenade Launchers and Mortars though removing the chemical munition propellant and switchig over to a Hellstorm type feed system! Hellstorm, think that is the right name was featured on FutureWeapons a while back or I may devise something else!

Nov 11, 2008 18:16:32 That's it... Metalstorm is what is was called! I could probably tweak it a bit... minus the chemical propellant and have the tanks utilize an experimental Micro-Railgun system?
