RE: [DS] Calling all used tank salesmen

I have used often in the past an EXTREMELY expensive force of GRAV MBTs
and
MICVs armed with MDC weapons and lavishly equipped with Stealth and ECM
along with Reactive armor. I had two Squads of Three Razorwing Class
MICV
(Size 4, MDC/2 (t) carrying PA Infantry) get fired on by Thirty GMS/Ls
with
only one loss (much to the consternation of my opponent who had a
massive
defending force of low tech GMS armed vehicles with light infantry)
