Very nice lil mIssle platforms. Paired with a standard ac20 hertz to punch holes, and you'd have a nasty lil combo.<br /><br />I've used that fafnir in a few games with mixed results...this game I just treated it like it was armed with twin AC20s with a 13 hex mid range and it worked like a dream. The only downside was the need for a god pilot, which drove up the bv cost....but you'll never live thru all that recoil without something better than a 4/5 pilot...Murlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04445796397943504075noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1607148523152146537.post-11447675466197948242013-07-29T13:14:29.973-04:002013-07-29T13:14:29.973-04:00@Itinerant: You're welcome, thanks for stoppin...@Itinerant: You're welcome, thanks for stopping by!<br /><br />@Counterfett: When infantry does anything useful its a win in my book! My mechanized platoon managed 2 headshots in this game! As for the Po, I've debatd getting them. As much as I like the Capellans, and they build it, the base model comes in at the top of the point range that I like for my vehicles. <br /><br />I think the motive crit chart is too heavily stacked against vehicles, and so refuse to take expensive tanks. For example, an single LBX blast immobilized a vedette during this game. It could just as easily been a dreadfully expensive Demolisher II, which would be infuriating.<br /><br />As such I try to keep my tanks at 600-700 points and down.

Fun times.<br /><br />On the flip side of the coin, I've never used a Hetzer, but I have a Po heavy tank that my old roomate nicknamed 'The Lucky Lancer' for its ability to decapitate mechs with its AC.CounterFetthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06273543429522256725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1607148523152146537.post-69523698042927895022013-07-29T12:07:12.397-04:002013-07-29T12:07:12.397-04:00That Hetzer action is the kind of thing that I rea...That Hetzer action is the kind of thing that I really enjoy about gaming.<br /><br />Thank for the Bt report.
