I saw the posting on Grav. Here's one thought:
What makes you think a Grav vehicle is the only
thing that needs to equally armour its bottom
and top in the GZGverse? If I can invent top
attack missiles, I can maybe invent bottom
attack missiles. Mines are nasty. We might have
a bouncing projectile that hits the bottom
armour. I think weapons of the future will be
fairly dangerous to whatever aspect of a vehicle
they choose to be, and consequently
consideration must be made to armouring all
sides. Top-attack GMS or rear-attack will be
present, as will bomblets. Maybe I produce
some bomblet rounds that stick into the
ground and explode upward as a vehicle drives
over them..... in short, armour must appear on
all sides. Or else you run a big risk. And the GZG
armour model (right now) seems to support
that contention.
