Anti-Tank Guns

Text item: 

Since AT guns use direct fire, (as opposed to an artillery's indirect 
fire), we just design a vehicle with no armor or power system (unless 
it's a powered weapon like HEL, MDC).  Buy the vehicle frame, gun & 
FireCon & that's it.  We haven't worried about ammo storage.  Since 
I'd guess the ammo necessary for artillery harassing fire to be about 
the same as for an AT gun, so maybe the ammo won't require any cargo 
space.

I am Pentium of Borg.  Division is futile.  You will be approximated.

I finally started reading the Dirtside rules, and noticed that there 
are no rules for towed anti-tank guns (a la German 88's).  What do 
people do?  Follow the rules for the towed Artillery?  House rules?

Also, Since there are a few (ex-) artillerymen in the list, is it 
reasonable to give towed artillery a 180 degree arc of fire?  Can you 
twist your cannons that much?

Thanks!

Alfredo
