Post subject: | Astral Republic: Belier Heavy OmniTank |
You might recognize this as being a modernized, revised version of this older thread. http://www.heavymetalpro.com/forums/vie ... f=9&t=5235 I wasn't particularly proud of the tank or the story, so I went back and rebooted the entire design and I like how it came out. The idea is to have a main battle tank (in fact, it's about the same weight as a full-up Abrams) capable of meeting most direct-fire situations simply by swapping the main gun. Enjoy. Code: BattleTech Vehicle Technical Readout VALIDATED Type/Model: Belier Heavy OmniTank (Base) Tech: Inner Sphere / 3060 Config: Tracked Omni Vehicle Rules: Level 2, Custom design Mass: 70 tons Power Plant: 280 VOX Fusion Cruise Speed: 43.2 km/h Maximum Speed: 64.8 km/h Armor Type: Ferro-Fibrous Armament: 1 Anti-Missile System Manufacturer: (Unknown) Location: (Unknown) Communications System: (Unknown) Targeting & Tracking System: (Unknown) ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ==Overview:== The Belier (French: Ram) is a heavy OmniTank from the Astral Republic. Its design dates to the buildup to the Shark War in 3060, and is based heavily on old Star League technology. It might seem somewhat dated in the present era, but is no less effective despite its age. ==Capabilities:== The Belier weighs 70 tons, and is built like a classic heavy tank, albeit one with modular Omni construction. Its fusion powered tracks provide a top speed of 64 KPH in most terrain, and it is well protected by ferro-fibrous armor modules and a fixed AMS on the turret roof. The Belier is armed in traditional tank fashion, with a main gun and lighter coaxial weapons all mounted in the turret. This gives the Belier an old fashioned appearance, not wholly unlike tanks of the early 21st century, which hides the fact that the Belier's weapons are mounted in Omni pods. The main gun mount is off center to the left, so that the entire battery is centered in the turret. The battery can elevate 45 degrees to engage targets at higher levels, including low flying aircraft. The Belier's crew accomodations are generous but practical. A ration cooker, electric toilet and filtered climate control allow the Belier's crew to stay "buttoned up" for long periods. An e-clip charger keeps the crew's personal arms ready, and external outlets provide reactor power for a unit camp, maintenance or other needs. Finally, an external phone box on the Belier's rear gives RMF infantry a secure, easily accessible means to communicate with the crew in battle. ==Battle History:== The Belier has been the direct-fire mainstay of the RMF's armored units in every conflict since its introduction in 3060. ==Variants:== As befits an OmniTank, the Belier has evolved with the RMF over the years via updated model configurations. The models listed are only those favored in present use. -------------------------------------------------------- Type/Model: Belier Heavy OmniTank (Base) Mass: 70 tons Equipment: Items Mass Int.

Its "main gun" is a dual LRM-15 pod with four tons of ammo. The usual laser module provides close fires. The Belier C's substantial protection and turreted armament make it better at indirect fire support in urban combat and close terrain than specialist support units like the Mangonel, which are best suited to long open field ranges.

Its "main gun" is an Arrow IV missile launcher with three tons of ammo, mated with the usual laser module for self-defense. Despite its seeming specialization, the Belier D is a highly flexible asset, used by the RMF in many roles. It provides mobile fires for attacks and convoys, and its "real tank" defenses are suited to direct combat; all situations in which more traditional artillery units are less effective. The Belier D earned a fearsome reputation as an urban "blockbuster" in the Jihad, and can also use SAM rounds to provide AA coverage, an important fact given the tense situation with the Raven Alliance. The Belier D is easily distinguished from its kin by the large square single-barreled launcher in place of the main gun. -------------------------------------------------------- Type/Model: Belier Heavy OmniTank D Mass: 70 tons Equipment: Items Mass Int.
