No URL; just on a sheet of paper, in pre-FB1 style, and in someone
else's hands. It probably should be pointed out FB style but a
guesstimation at the table before a game showed it to be close.
What I recall is 2 class-5 beams, 17 PDS, 1 ADFC, 6 FCs, MD2,
4 screen generators (too much redundacy or I would needle them).
and a lot more other beams; at short beam range it has about 70 dice
in its best arc and around 65 dice in 2-4 other arcs.
I'll copy it down next time I see it, also to verify its numbers, and
let you know. The owner has a lot of Aquarian miniatures and SSDs.
Come to think of it, he might have downloaded the SSDs from
somewhere but I don't know where.
I've come up with some little needlers (mass 14, MD6, 2 needles,
2 armor, 2 hull, 1 FC, 48 points) to work him over but if that big
boy has escorts then they can wipe out a lot of those needlers.
I put on the extra armor and hull (the first threshold has a slim
chance of wiping out the FC or both needles) just to avoid PDS
fire from taking out "one-hit wonders". :)
