This is good design usually.  Last night I was sorely dissappointed by
my Tank Destroyer platoon, but that has to do with some incredibly bad
dice rolling and having no less than three of them (out of five tank
destroyers) pull a firer systems down chit.  Argh!  Otherwise I use the
size 2 w/ 2 GMS/H (Sup) in grav, tracked, and wheeled varients.

one eye, or what?  I can't see (sorry) that they'd need a lot of depth 
perception...XXX

I find that DFFGs are too short-ranged to use as my main weapon.  One
platoon out of each tank company carried DFFGs.  HELs have no punch
whatsoever.  There is no God but the MDC and I am It's Prophet.

XXX Allah Ackbar!  Until we get Traveller Fusion guns (DFFG damage, MDC 
range), I'll stick with the MDC.  Side note: In Traveller TNE, when you 
ripped the Big Fking Fusion Gun out of an Imperial TL 14 Grav Tank 
(Trepida/Intrepid) and replaced it with the best MDC you could cram in
with 
a decent ammo supply, it actually had a longer range and better 
penetration.  And it didn't light up the countryside like daylight for 
klicks, either...XXX
