harpoon gun

#

i didnt even know that existed

#

There's a few

#

Pay attention to how much ammo you're alloting, by the way. Even the energy weapons: due to reduced ability to dissipate heat, smaller ones need power packs

#

And yes, that's also true of BA lasers and such

#

The MagPulse Harpoon Gun started out as an attempt to make a man-portable equivalent of the Battle Armor Taser, but the power requirements were completely insurmountable

#

So instead they looked at the old magnetic-pulse missiles from a few decades earlier, and went in that direction

#

It's... something

#

The launcher weighs 73 kilograms, each harpoon weighs 22 kilograms, and if not mounted on a vehicle you also need to supply the equivalent of a High-Capacity Power Pack (30 Power Points) for each shot

#

Granted, they were trying to miniaturize the Battle Armor Taser, and that's already insanely unreliable to the point of exploding when fired more often than not

#

Makes RISC tech look safe

#

@dapper narwhal The Armored Chassis modification is necessary to mount armor heavier than fifty kilograms per point. E-rated BAR 2 armor is not, so you don't need that

#

Oh, neat!

#

It's so much more awkward to fill the tonnage in a Small SV

Be real screwed up if it had swapped 1 of the missile launchers for Torpedo one... attack them above and below the surface.

devout rapids
#

Also, I'm pretty sure the "Inferno Ammo" is some sort of bug

#

Just delete it

dapper narwhal
#

Yeah, I'll do that in a bit, getting set up for game stuff rn

devout rapids
#

I'd also advise against bothering with the "Inferno" variants of man-portable ordnance much, given that's just the same weaponry with a different ammo used. A bit of a hack for converting from A Time of War, more than anything

#

You're actually allowed to use all the ammo types in AToW, though most of them have relatively little impact in Total Warfare. Armor-piercing being a notable exception

5 slots on this thing is so bizzare to me

#

5

#

Ahhhhhh, right, so the ammo thing make it show shots on the weapons table

#

So the hack-part is more to bully MML into formating stuff properly, it looks like

#

Still 15 SRM and 11 Hwapoon shots, here

HA... I "know" a Ben too...

Paint this thing in yellow and white and call it the 'Poon Slayer 5000'
