There are rules allowing towed Arty, anyone think they'd have a problem
with permitting people to mount HKPs, RFAC, HVC, or DFFGs on towed
carraiges. Carraige is free, and has signature one level lower than
size of gun, as per Arty. Can be either fixed or 'turreted', but
unsure how to point that. Maybe make fully traversable carraiges cost
1 point per weapon size? Fixed arc guns may be manhandled to any
direction in lieu of firing. Only system may be fitted is firecontrol.
Towed HKP/3 (based on MicroArmor mini of Soviet D-30 122mm Howitzer)
Fixed HKP/3 30 points
Enh FiCon 12 points
Prime Mover (based on Ruskie trucks that came with above)
Size 2 10
Armor0 0
CFE 2
HiMobWheeled 3
So for 57 points, a fixed arc HKP/3 with a signature of 2. Deployed in
ambush, or in defensive positions, could be quite effective. Not
reccomended for open-field battles. Cheap and easily operated by any
planetary militia, these can be a nasty surprise for raiding light
armor.
