not yet..........

I was thinking along the lines of dual Gauss rifles - 4 LPL - Stealth armor - MASC

I don't think you can pull that off. Not even with paper thin armour.

sure if you're attempting an "Alpha Strike" every round. Try looking at it like this

Definitely both Gauss constant every round while stealthed at long range

Both Gauss - one LPL while stealthed moving into medium range

1Gauss 2 LPL constant every round dropping stealth during manuvering

Both Gauss - 3 LPL closing in for the kill - take the 10 + heat .....gotta live dangerously

there's enough Gauss rounds to fire for 16 straight turns. Most games are over in 10 to 12 turns. Your opponent is gonna get real skittish facing 15 - 30 points of Gauss every damned turn for an entire game.

I'll play test this design and let you know how it turns out.

thats a maximum of 3 LPL used, so one could be replaced by something else, maybe two.

too bad it looks different, unless you take one of the tubes in each arm as two medium pulse lasers

but this thing could alpha strike for ten+ heat doing 38 more potential damage than the original.

I'm open to suggestions.........whatcha got in mind ?? that still provides overwhelming despair.



As is, the strategy is sound and provides a constant source of firepower against an opponent.

ROFL while i edited my post to give an example...

i forgot to mention the rearmounted laser and the price that is 2 mill lower.

Changed the Stealth armor for Null Sig, MASC for engine supercharger and added a few toys. Now you can be hiding in some woods with Null Sig on and Alpha Strike twice for two heat, after which you start moving and can fire the Gauss and two LPL with Null Sig on or add a third LPL with the Null Sig off.
