WEAPONS Battle Rockets There are times in ground combat when grav crews must bring themselves to bear against installations or well defended buildings. Unmoving, but often brutally armoured and armed, the crews called for some new weapons that could hit hard and could hit in great numbers. Targeting was, of course, not so much of an issue, as most installations tend not move around to much. It is in the context of these situations that engineers on both sides of the conflict harkened back to earlier times to re-invent the Battle Rocket. The BR is as simple as it sounds--a large warhead with a large booster motor, with no guidance and no electronics save the fuse. The BR is manufactured to easily fit into any standard missile launcher, replacing TVLGs and SMLMs on a one-for-one basis, eliminating the need for upgrading and allowing units slated for installation attack to adapt themselves quickly and easily. Though designed with non-moving targets in mind, in combat the BR can be used on any target, albeit with varying degrees of effectiveness. Against shields, the BR has a much greater chance at pe<strong>net</strong>ration when compared to ordinary missiles-- the lack of on-board electronics severely reduces the pre-detonation effect shields have verses a standard TVLG or SMLM. Vulcan systems can still, however, shoot them down. As well, this lack of guidance electronics makes them far less accurate. Despite an increased range, due to more fuel capacity, their accuracy rapidly degrades with target distance, an effect further heightened by the BR’s relatively slow “muzzle velocity” as it leaves the launcher. Nevertheless, the BR handsomely makes up these shortcomings with their massive damage potential, as well as their ability to be fired en- masse at a target. When used against a stationary target, a volley of these can be devastating. Game Notes: Before play, players may choose to exchange any standard TVLG or SMLM with a BR of the appropriate size. A BR does not require a painted target to be fired, nor does it receive any bonus for a target being painted. It does, however, effectively subtract two-thirds from the target’s shield rating, due to the reduced effect shields have on its limited internal circuitry. The BR suffers worse range penalties than all other weapons, as it is a slow and unguided weapon. These penalties are listed, along with all the other relevant info, on the table below. All other standard rules apply.

Many lower-tech worlds use them extensively, as do worlds where extensive military buildup is not needed. While current armour technology has rendered the chemically powered anti-tank guns obsolete, the lower calibre variety, such as gatling cannons and chain guns, are most effective against light targets, vehicles and, due to their multi-projectile style of fire, infantry. For this reason, Chem-Guns can be found in many ‘more sophisticated’ units as well. For their low cost, they provide an effective dualpurpose light duty weapon. TOG civilian defence units are the ones most likely to be so equipped, though other units often retrofit/jurry-rig them onto their vehicles as needed. Though far from the limelight, chem-guns are still a viable weapon on the modern battlefield.

WEAPONS Gauss Cannons/MDCs The standard weapons of the modern battlefield, Gauss Cannons and MDCs operate on the same principal, but with different ammunition sizes and effects. Technology does not stand still even for these old-timers. Game Notes: There are really no serious changes here, only the addition of more GR and MDC classes. However, in figuring these out, some odd things were discovered about GRs. For one, the 50mm seemed way overweight, being but a mere 4 tons lighter than the 100mm, and therefore grossly inefficient in its damage ratios. However, changing the tons to 23 from 43 made all fit into place nicely, pointing to perhaps a typo that has persisted through both editions. As well, the progression seemed to be messed up around the 150mm. In fixing this, the 150mm has now become a 125mm, with a slightly different weight. Also changed is the 100mm’s weight. However, these two items should have no serious effect on any vehicles currently designed.
