the Friday night game. I think we wanted to keep the speeds down a *little*,
so we made them slow grav tanks.

Yeah, they were slow. Only about 140" per turn, as I recall.

140" per turn is only 35 mph... you call a grav tank moving at 35 mph *fast*? <g>


More seriously though, for most DS3 vehicles it isn't the *total* movement rate which is important - even a fairly slow wheeled vehicle can usually get to any point of the table it wants in a single game turn as long as the enemy doesn't interfere - but rather the *combat* movement rate, ie. how far the vehicle can move in a single 20-second combat round.
